UP Diliman Computerized Student Council Elections

UP Diliman, 24-Pebrero-2010 – Ang pagkakaroon ng isang automated na eleksyon ay nakatulong nang malaki sa pagsasagawa ng University Student Council Elections sa UP Diliman. Isang malayang software, ang Halalan, ang nagbigay-daan para maisakatuparan ito.

Ang Halalan ay ginawa ng mga kasapi ng isang samahan sa UP Diliman. Sila ay ang UP Linux Users’ Group o UnPLUG. Mula sa isang departamento lamang noong 2006, lumaki at lumawak ang naabot ng nasabing software. Sa 24-Pebrero-2010, sa ikalawang pagkakataon ay gagamitin ng UP Diliman ang Halalan sa pagsasagawa ng fully-computerized na eleksyon. Pati na rin sa labas ng UP Diliman ay ginagamit na rin ang Halalan. Ilan sa mga ito ay ang Escuela De Nuestra Señora de La Salette at ang La Verdad Christian College. Maging sa labas ng ating bansa ay nakarating na ang nasabing software dahil ito ay ginamit na ng isang kolehiyo sa Boston at isang institusyon sa Italya.

Ngayon na papalapit na ang national elections at napapanahon ang usapin tungkol sa automated elections, maganda itong halimbawa at hamon sa COMELEC at sa mga kinauukulan sa pagsasagawa nila ng automated national elections. Para sa karagdagang detalye tungkol sa Halalan, maaari kayong bumisita sa http://halalan.uplug.org.

ODK (Oh My God!), that was my expression before I had my turn for the oral exam. I was so nervous that time but fortunately, I was able to deliver it good. Here’s the story:

Wednesday night, I was looking for a picture that I will use for the orals. When I met Mau in McDonalds PhilCoA, I saw the tray mats they are using and I decided to use it for my orals. I described it in Spanish and this was the translation I had:

“Buenas tardes profesora y companeros de clase. Esta es una foto en restaurante McDonalds. En este foto son dos tartas, dos helados y una cola. La primera tarta se rellena con de las manzanas. La segunda tarta se rellena con de las pinas. Estas dos tartas en caja de carton. La primera es con helado de caramelo. La segunda es con helado de chocalate. Estos dos helados helados en vasos de plastico. Estos dos son helados de frio. Esta cola en un vaso de vidrio. Todos estos son veinte y cinco pesos. Todos estos se incluyen en el restaurante McDonalds de promo. Eso es todo. Gracias.”

After I did my orals, I received an applause from my classmates. It feels good. And I hope I’ll be able to maintain that competitive attitude in class. (Just like earlier, I had only 1 mistake on our Span quiz) Hehe.
