After mini graduation of course three, we carried out everything and we begun course four which is called Media Lab, in media lab we have been doing consecutive works for example like how to play with codes, making a blog, and web company, CSS (Cascading Style Sheet), CMS (Content Management System) and how it works, designing poster, business card and logo, how Database functions, FTP (File Transfer Protocol), Java and JavaScript, so compare to the previous courses in Media Lab more upheavals were made especially in designing and developing websites.
At the beginning of this course we took up how to market yourself, its difficult for the first time to introduce it in front of the audience if you did not make plan for it, because before you do anything, the first thing you should do is to think, may be for instance which business that you are going to establish or sell, make planning, then come up with unique name of your business in order to attracts the clients then you need to think about your clients and ask your yourself, what and whom do you want to sell and in which way do they accept it, does this has merits or demerits.
After that, we started the project of Web Company and designing some products of the same company like poster, business card and logo, so that for the time being we still continuing with this assignment.
On 26th August, we begun to create personal blog but before this, we did an assignment of mind mapping so as to challenge mind for what we are going to post in our blogs so we needed to think more and more.

Visit Chumbe Island.

Zanzibits Team.


It’s believed that, Zanzibar is the one among the most beautiful island in East Africa that is surrounded by many other isles. I got an opportunity to come over the fantastic unique island, Always I have been hearing about Chumbe but nothing could have prepared me for the beauty of the island, the magnificent coral reefs, the amazing bungalows, delicious food, staffs hospitality and many more. So we took up journey to move there and the boat took approximately half an hour to get there, it was no tide and so we did not have to wade very long, we were greeted by rangers when we got to Chumbe, the rangers take us up to the visitors centre and gave an introduction about the island and the project that running there, I was utterly amazed of the traditional architecture of the Bungalows, chairs and a tables, downstairs a hammock, upstairs the bedroom and obligatory mosquito net, bulb and little fan by the bed which is charged by the solar panel during the day.
The bungalows are all men-made features, using locally wood and traditional techniques. The roofs are funnel shaped to trap, filter and store the rainwater for the last longer. The composting toilet did not smell and I expected basically, a hole in the ground but it looked like a proper western toilet. The rangers explain how to utilize them, this was nice trip which deserved more attention to us.

Shortly after, we went to see and learn about marine environmental conservation, it was wonderful lesson and we understood the way how they conserved marine environment and in which way does Chumbe Island used to get and preserve water for domestic purposes and later usage, since there are absences of water tapes, streams, wells and what if they dag the land they could get sea water so that what they could have done so as to get softly and freshly water? This question came to us and I was the one who answered it correctly, the answer was, “they should have to wait until the rain coming, after get it they should make it filtration process using lime stone, consequently they can get soft water” that’s all, so that this is the good answer that they wanted to hear from us.

Afterward, we went snorkeling to see coral reef and other different sea creatures, you can not believe what I had seen there, firstly when I took a look I sprained, the coral is stunning, there were something magically and very impressed to me that I never seen search before instead watching on television, there are more than millions of beautiful sea creatures and nice environment under water compare to dry lands.
My trip to Chumbe Island was changing something more comfortable so I brought a new appreciation for the life away from the experience.
I appreciate CHICOP a lot for keeping this as a little paradise in Zanzibar, this trip was really cheered me up and unforgettable one.
