Map Maker Training at Central Mindanao University
October 30, 2014, Jeffry C. Manhulad, the
Google Student Ambassador (GSA) – South East Asia from Liceo de Cagayan
University, finally conducted the Map Maker Training at Central Mindanao
University situated at Maramag, Bukidnon. Thirty students were chosen through online registration and additional ten passersby, in a total of 40
participants. The registrants were not limited within the university but were also
extended to all nearby schools. In the said event, participants from Bukidnon
State University, AMA Computer College CDO joined but most of the students are from
Central Mindanao University taking up BS Information Technology.
The GSA program was been discussed and
opportunities were opened for the students to know more about being a Google Student
Ambassador, the needed conditions and roles in their campus. For those who can
still qualify, they were highly encouraged to join the program.
Overall, the Map Maker Training’s purpose was to
introduce and train the students in Google Map Making. Jeffry showed and taught
the participants where to start, how to improve Google Map especially their
desired places to upgrade, and what are the do’s and don’ts. Students got more
interested and excited as they tried to edit places.
With the assistance of Google to make the event
possible and fruitful, the budget was given for the snacks and Google T-shirt
as freebies.

About Project UGOP Bukidnon
Project UGOP (Unveiling Google Opportunities for Progress)
is a project for the Province of Bukidnon spearheaded by Jeffry C. Manhulad,
the Google Student Ambassador (GSA) - Southeast-Asia for Liceo de Cagayan
University. The word ‘ugop” was derived from a Manobo (a tribe in Bukidnon)
term which means to help. The project aims to spread the Google Technologies
which can greatly help students and teachers make their school works easier.
Jeffry, being a Google Apps advocate and a hardworking member-volunteer at
Google Developers Group (GDG) - Cagayan de Oro (CDO) was given the chance to
apply for the Google Student Ambassadors Program and became an Ambassador with
the help of GDG-CDO Manager, Ms. Josan Astrid Dometita. He was one of the 150
Google Student Ambassadors in Southeast-Asia who were invited to attend the GSA
Summit 2014 held at Cebu City, Philippines which was attended by students from
eight countries in Southeast-Asia such as Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Sri
Lanka, Pakistan, Indonesia, Thailand, and Philippines.
With this once-in-a-lifetime chance of becoming an
Ambassador of Google, who are tasked to “do cool things that matter” to the
community and organize the GSA Program in his university. The program, which is
backed by a team of students, the Google Students at Liceo de CagayanUniversity will help Google spread its technologies which can greatly impact
the community, giving them chances to grab lots of opportunities to join Google
programs either for students, educators, developers, and more.
The Project UGOP, which is just one of the many programs
organized by thousands of GSAs around the world, will bring Google closer to
the communities, not just in the city but also in provinces like Bukidnon and
other places in Northern Mindanao since events organized by the GSAs is
supported by Google, and therefore it is free and fun!

The teacher-attendees were also given the chances to learn about the power of Google's email service--GMail and other Google Apps for education.
The teachers were even more thrilled as they experience the file collaboration capability of Google Drive and Google Docs, and also the Google URL shortener. It's one of the most useful free apps of Google for its online customers.
