You may have searched “How do I do a screenshot on my computer?”, “How to screenshot with laptop” or you may need to take a screenshot of important information on social media to support your claims. Perhaps, you need to send a screenshot of an image on the screen of your personal computer to a friend or family member. Maybe you need to show how a particular software works during a tutorial and you need an image to support your lectures.



All these can be achieved if only we know how to take screenshot with laptop computer (PC). No matter the reason, HowNah shows how Windows’ built-in features can be used for capturing and saving screenshots.

Step 1: Capture the image
Assuming the area you want to capture is displayed on your screen, press the Print Screen (often shortened to “PrtScn”) key, typically located in the upper-right corner of your keyboard, to capture a screenshot of your entire display.

Alternatively, press Alt + Print Screen keys to capture a screenshot of the active window. If you’re on a laptop, you may need to press Fn + Print Screen if your laptop has another feature assigned to that particular key.

There will be no noise or any other indication the screenshot was taken, but the resulting image will be saved as a PNG file to your clipboard. If using Windows 8 or 10, click the Windows Key + Print Screen to automatically save a full-screen screenshot within the Screenshots folder of your picture directory.

Alternatively, if you have Dropbox installed, the screenshot will be automatically deposited in your Dropbox directory, under Screenshots.

Step 2: Open Paint
Click the ‘Start’ menu, navigate to the Windows Accessories folder or the ‘Accessories’ folder if using Windows 7, and click ‘Paint.’ The icon depicts a painting palette with a brush on the right side, but it will vary slightly depending on your operating system.

In Windows 8, press the Windows key to open the start screen. Afterwards, click the down arrow in the bottom left, press Ctrl + Tab, or swipe downward from the centre of the display to access the Apps View. From there, select ‘Paint.’

In Windows 10, you can open the ‘Start’ menu, go to All Apps, and scroll through the alphabetical list until you find ‘Paint.’

All three iterations of Windows also include Windows Search, which can be used to find the paint tool by searching for ‘Paint.’


Step 3: Paste the screenshot
Once open, click the Paste button in the upper-left corner of the program, choose Edit then Paste, or press Ctrl + V on the keyboard to paste your screenshot. Again, the exact navigation and wordage will vary slightly from one operating system to another but the keyboard shortcut will remain the same.

Step 4: Save the screenshot

Perform any editing you want, such as cropping the image to a specified area, and click the main file option in the upper-left corner. Afterwards, select Save As, title the new file, choose a save location, and select your desired file format from the drop-down menu.

For most purposes, JPG will do fine, but a variety of other formats are available to choose from such as PNG, BMP, GIF, and others. Click the gray ‘Save’ button in the bottom-right corner when you finish.



Tips for using the default keyboard shortcuts to screenshot with laptop computer

Your keyboard’s Print Screen key copies your current screen. You can then paste it into image editing software with Ctrl + V keys.

Pressing Alt + Print Screen will capture only the currently selected window.

Taking a screenshot is simple, regardless of which version of Windows you’re running. There are only a few steps. If you haven’t adjusted the default keyboard controls, you should already have access to all the image-editing software you need.

With the recent shut down of some universities in Nigeria due to students’ riots and protests, it is expedient we re-examine the effects of student unionism in schools and whether it is really worth the while. I must confess I have read numerous write ups and opinions on the above topic.

I am Olushinaola Taiwo and unusually, I will not be doing this alone. I have the complement of two intelligent friends namely Azubuike Onyeka and Adegoke Oladoyin. I sincerely hope you have a wonderful read.

Student Unionism In Nigeria - The Pains and Gains Student Unionism In Nigeria - The Pains And Gains Student Unionism In Nigeria - The Pains And Gains Student Unionism In Nigeria The Pains and Gains

HOW DID IT ALL BEGIN?

West African Student Union (WASU) which was pioneered by West African Students in London in 1925 was according to records the first step into unionism by Nigerian students. The Solanke and Bankole-Bright led WASU fought for improved welfare for all African students in London. Their influence in Nigeria brought about NUNS (National union of Nigerian Students) which premiered in the University of Ibadan. NUNS now NANS (National Association of Nigerian students) has its wings spread across all tertiary institutions in Nigeria in form of SUG’S (Student Union Governments)

THE PAINS AND THE GAINS

Nigerian students spend (4+x) – (6+x) years in school depending on the course of study. The x stands for extra years spent on strikes, protests, etc. This is due to decay in the educational system and the activities of various Student Union Governments.

In my quest for answers to different questions that ran through my mind, I was privileged to have an online chat with DEMOLA OLANREWAJU. He is a Creative writer, content manager, political analyst and strategist. He was the public relations officer of the then University of Ado-Ekiti (UNAD) Student Union Government. He intelligently expressed his views in the interview below.

What impact has students unionism had on you and how has it helped you in your political sojourn this far?

Unionism has helped me tremendously. It includes People Management, Clear-headedness and in Ideology. Addressing crowds, leading and organizing people are things I’m used to so when I do it today, it doesn’t bother me. In Unionism, you couldn’t be A and B; you’re either for or against an issue – that’s Clear-headedness, Values guiding your decision. When I go into a cause, I go all out because it aligns with my fullest and truest values and principles. In choosing PDP, my ideal was nationalism. When I fight for PDP therefore, it is because I believe it has traces of my ideology.

Why the need for Unionism?

Oppression manifested reduced student rights and entitlement such as feeding, accommodation etc. Unionism was the fight back.

Don’t you think students’ unionism is mainly as a result of the decay in our educational system?

Students Unionism wasn’t a result of it but the reason it was needed. The bad trends in unionism today are a result of societal degeneration. Unionism as far as Students Movement is concerned was borne as a result of oppression from government via school authorities.

What is the relationship between unionism and cultism?

Cultism was the negative reaction to such – so Cultism is directly anti-Unionism but these days has become synonymous with it

What’s your advice to student leaders? My advice to Student Unions’ is to maintain solidarity with their students at all times without compromise and pursue their cause with wisdom

What’s your take on the death of the UNIPORT student who died in the struggle?

Peter Ofurum’s death is a sad commentary on the management of UNIPORT and the Buhari government. History will remember him, just like Kunle Adepeju.

ONYEKA’S THOUGHTS

Azubuike Onyeka is a first class graduate of accounting from Babcock University. She was the best graduating student in her department in 2015. She shares her opinion below;

Judging from my experience from a Christian based private university, where everything is highly regulated from the clothes we wear to the food we eat and the hostels we stay in, the existence and impact of student unions cannot be over emphasized.

Firstly we have to establish their purpose of existence

They were created to be the voice of the students, serve as a middle man between the school authorities and the students and give constructive criticisms as regards the rules and regulations constantly formulated in the school amongst many others

Moving on to the essence of this write up, as it is popularly said, No Pain No Gain

Although sometimes especially in private universities, the pain outweighs the gain but the Victory is certain. Without a student union in my school, we would have been subjected to civilized slavery as the school authorities seldom came up with ‘unreasonable rules’

Take for instance, the ladies are not permitted to wear trousers and on top of that, we are being forced to wear skirts that are three inches below knee level, make only shoulder length hair dos, forced to attend church services four times in a week regardless of religious background.

All these rules even scare away potential students who foresee not coping with these rules as failure to adhere strictly could attract suspension and sometimes expulsion

We should also bear in mind that we are talking about university students who are old enough to live their lives without the interference of external parties

When the idea of student unions came about, they had a rough start and were given little or no room to fully participate in the affairs of the school. They were sometimes left behind in making some decisions that would affect the entire students of the school

But with time and persistence, their voice was beginning to be heard. The school started allocating a fixed percentage of students’ school fees to the union to enable the smooth running and proper availability of funds. The executives of the student union were paid monthly salary for having to combine their education with fighting for other students

They were involved in some decision making process, allowed to be among the panels that oversee the suspension and expulsion of students, Allowed to hold a week-long of social activities, Allowed to carry out capital intensive projects to assist the school in providing some basic amenities, allowed to defend students that were wrongfully accused of falling short of the schools rules, allowed to also raise fund for the less privileged students that could not afford the school fees. Even when it came to the increment of school fees, a peaceful protest was held and despite the fact that no action was taken by the school, it was acknowledged that their opinions were considered.

The pain here stems from the fact that they were closely monitored and were not given the free hand to carry out some of their plans and also their hands were tied when it came to raising the standards to taut of an average student rant wants to explore life.

The gain however of these student union will forever be enjoyed as they spoke on behalf of the majority, defended the innocent, provided fund to ensure the less privileged could graduate and finally became an Inner voice that couldn’t be shut down

OLADOYIN’S THOUGHTS

Adegoke Oladoyin is a student of Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife. In recent years, the school has been ravaged with series of strikes causing them to be about a session behind schedule. With her experience, it will be interesting to see what she thinks. She shares her thoughts below;

I remember the last protest that held in December, how the students refused to come out for the protest claiming that it was not the right approach to the problem but the student union government went on with it anyway. “Why do the student union government always insist on protests”, is it to make history or is it to really get positive answers from the school management? Why can’t we devise other means of bearing our minds to the school management? Probably if we found other strategies to pass our message across, the school management will be more willing to listen to us and give another reply.

After the students union government was suspended again, the academic calendar went uninterrupted. The students were bothered about who will fight for them if electricity got spoilt or water seized but surprisingly when these things happened, the school management got the electricity repaired without students protesting. I guess it’s left for students to take a vote but as for me, I definitely will go for a school without a student union government.

Interesting thoughts from my friends and I must say there is little more to write. Whether you are like ONYEKA who sees more gains than the pains or like OLADOYIN who sees otherwise, the fact is that ‘STUDENT UNIONISM’ in Nigeria needs “REBRANDING’.

The Chairman, Board of Trustees, Fountain University Osogbo, Alhaji AbdulWaheed Yinka Adeola, has said some individuals have illegally erected buildings on lands belonging to the institution.
Speaking during a meeting with the state governor, Rauf Aregbesola, he said despite having a genuine Certificate of Occupancy (C-of O) for the land, some individuals were building houses on the university’s campus.
Reacting, Governor Aregbesola assured the university that necessary legal measures would be put in place to address the problem.
Meanwhile, the university has inaugurated its Governing Council with Professor Isiaka Oloyede, former vice chancellor of the University of Ilorin who is currently the Secretary of the Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs as Pro-Chancellor.

icedbeatz:
this gender equality rant is a very crazy unproductive idea, it has mire of negative effects on the society as a whole and have fvcked up many marriages. The true sense of gender equality CAN NEVER EVER BE ACHIEVED ANYWHERE because GOD NEVER APPLIED SUCH CONCEPT WHEN HE WAS CREATING THE WORLD.
women cry gender equality but
* still expect a man to protect them.
* still expect a man to buy them gifts.
* still expect a man to treat them preferably nice.
* still expect a man to pay the bills in the house(most places)
* still expect a man to open doors for them
* still expect a man to carry them up (romantic situations)
* still expect a man to buy them flowers
* still expect a man to take them shopping
* still expect a man to provide for them in most cases.
* still expect a man to initiate first kiss, first fvcks and so on
what about recharge cards, bride price, BASIC NEEDS WHICHBTHE SOCIETY PLACED ON A MAN AS HIS RESPONSIBILITY?!!!!!!!!!!!!!! they list is so much that it never ends. all i see are bitcches who want equal rights without equal RESPONSIBILITIES. I once ditched a bitcch for such stuupid mentality .fck all the feminists, they should turn lesbos period and leave men to be.

Wow! You have just hit all female on there fore head. Nice comment.

Is there anybody would support Gender equality here on Nairaland?

According to MasterWeb report, "Women are more than fifty percent of the world’s population. They perform two-third of the world’s work, yet receive one-tenth of the world’s income and own one-hundredth of the world’s property. They represent a staggering seventy percent of the world’s one billion poorest people".

Gender Equality is about having half of humanity participate.

In Nigeria Home, Man is the head of the family. If the father dies, the male child takes position of the head of the family. Nobody cares if the first, second, third children are female, the little boy remains the head of the family.

In Nigeria Community, Man is always and will always be the king. I don't know of a place where we have female "king" .

In Nigeria Politics, Women are given little presence. Our Head of state / Presidents since 1960 till now are all men. Even all the 2015 Presidential candidates are men except one of them who is a woman of which I have not even seen any campaign advert of her on television, newspaper, poster or even on social network.

To cut the long story short, can GENDER equality be practice in Nigeria? If No, why? If Yes, how?

How is dat possible?

Secondary school teachers in Bauchi State barricaded the Government House on Tuesday to protest against 11 months of unpaid salaries.

Most of the teachers are newly recruited by the state government since last year but are yet to receive their salaries.

The protesters who lamented over their plight since their recruitment stressed that they could no longer cope with the trend and urged the government to address the situation.

Mr Tijani Abubakar who spoke on behalf of the protesters, lamented that since the state government employed them on April 16, 2014, they had not been paid.

He said: “In the spirit of leadership by example, we want Governor Isa Yuguda to intervene and address this situation because we are suffering.”

The teachers, who arrived the Government House around 9am refused to leave despite the scorching sun.

What Do you think Education is turning to in Nigeria?

Newly admitted students to various programmes of the Federal University of Technology, Akure have been admonished to abide by laid down rules and regulations as the institution has zero tolerance for anti social behavior. The Vice-Chancellor, Professor Adebiyi Daramola gave the advice during the 32nd matriculation ceremony for the undergraduate students admitted for the 2014/2015 academic session. The Vice-Chancellor urged the students to complement management’s effort by being peace loving, law abiding and distancing themselves from cultism and other behavior that could terminate their academic pursuits prematurely. He also enjoined them to be focused in their academic pursuit in order to achieve excellence.
Daramola who commended the efforts and contributions of the University Admissions Committee under the Chairmanship of the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic), Professor Emmanuel Adedayo Fasakin stated that the University has continued to be the envy of other universities in Nigeria because of the extra efforts put in by the management of the University in raising FUTA to enviable heights.

He said the University is no longer a local champion as its collaboration with reputable institutions across the globe has made it an international player in the global academic arena .He said apart from its collaboration with the Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University in Tallahassee, USA plans were in top gear to send students to universities in Germany and Brazil on exchange collaboration in addition to existing collaborations with other world class Universities.

Speaking further, Professor Daramola said the institution has continued to be the toast of many young Nigerians in search of excellent education in the field of science and technology. He said during the last admission exercise over 10,000 students applied to the University while 4,039 eventually scaled the huddle and got admissions into the Institution’s six schools. “This is not only because FUTA is the best University of Technology in Nigeria, but because it keeps going the extra mile to ensure that students compete favorably with their counterparts in other Universities across the globe”, the vice chancellor said.

He said the students should look to lecturers as role models and monitors and to refer all challenges they may encounter to the Students Affairs Division. Daramola also expressed his delight about the recent approval granted the University to start a School of Health and Health Technology, stating that FUTA would continue to sustain its tradition of excellence in academic, research and peaceful learning atmosphere as well as the character training of students.

The Registrar, Dr. (Mrs.) Modupe Ajayi administered the matriculation oath on the students which formally confirmed their studentship of FUTA. 3,675 students who were duly registered took the matriculation oath

Principal Officers of the University, Deans of Schools, School Officers and Parents of the matriculating students graced the ceremony held in the new auditorium of the University.

As a graduate who came very close to finishing with a first class in engineering, I can easily identify errors that cost students the prestigious first class degree. I made one or two of these mistakes. Over the span of five years that I spent in the university, I saw lots of people make the same mistakes outlined here. Many brilliant students start with the initial dream of graduating with a first class, only to end up struggling to even finish with a 2.1. Obtaining a first class takes a great deal of hardwork, consistency, intelligence but most importantly discipline. Commit these errors and your chances of getting a first class will be very slim if not nil.

1. Womanizing–This is not about having a committed girlfriend in school which can even be very distracting. This is referring to keeping strings of girlfriends while in school, or pursuing anything in skirt. I am not speaking for or against womanizing in school. But womanizing is the quickest way of ensuring that your dream of graduating with a first class vanishes into thin air as your attention towards your academic studies will be greatly divided.

2. Not starting well–Except UNIBEN which notably operates CGPA system that is based on percentage depending on undergraduate level, all other universities operate a cumulative system based on credit load of individual courses. Most first class graduates build a solid foundation in the first 2 years in school. Thereafter, they ensure they do not fall below the boundary. Not having a high CGPA in your first 2 years means that you will not have any buffer during tough academic times, as the going may get tougher as you progress and your CGPA may become progressively lower. Your academic standing after your first 2 years can make or mar your chances of graduating with a first class. In addition, having a high CGPA may help build you gain respect amongst students or even lecturers who may be careful when marking your scripts so as not to make mistakes.

3. Placing less significance on small unit courses–Yes, some courses may carry smaller credit units but they count. Such courses may be electives and general courses. Cumulate all those courses and you will surprised about how big the effect can be. Every ‘A’ grade matters especially if you just on the edge, and there may be moments when it is the smaller unit courses that keep you above the boundary. One of the critical moments that defined my final CGPA was a 2-unit course that dropped my CGPA from a potential 4.51 to a 4.47 in my penultimate semester.
download (27)

4. Not studying hard enough–I need not say much about this. Studying hard does not necessarily mean spending long hours reading in classes. Studying hard involves studying with high level of intensity and depth within a study period. The difference between a first class student and others is the attention to detail when studying. I use myself as an example. I remember that eventhough I sometimes spent hours reading, I was always too lazy to solve sample problems. In many cases, I overestimated my level of assimilation. I sometimes got away with it in exams but it cost me a few important A’s which would have made significant differences in my final CGPA.

5. Not taking internship and project work seriously –SIWES (internship) is mainly for science and engineering students. Internship has a combined credit load of about 12 – 15 units depending on the course and the institution. Imagine what damage a ‘B’ can do a first class student! You don’t necessarily have to work for a top company as an intern. Sloppiness in filling log books, poorly written internship report, and inadequate preparation towards defense of industrial attachment are enough to cost you an ‘A’ grade.
Project and practical works also carry significant credit load as well. Practical work can be particularly tedious, and undisciplined students can be lax about it.

6. Allowing the opinion of mediocre students influence you–Average students will always be negative about their academic environment. They will talk about how tough it is to graduate with a 2.1 much less a first class. They will complain about how tough the courses or the lecturers are. They will remind you about the failure rate in the past. They will play the victim when they fail exams. They will congratulate themselves on how ‘lucky’ they are to escape a carryover with an E grade. They will continually demonize the school environment and their department. They will never say anything but positive things about the school. They will criticize everyone but themselves. Feed your mind with such thoughts from them and kiss goodbye to your dreams of graduating with a first class.

7. Not seeking help / information –Not seeking information can be harm your chances of finishing with a first. Information gathering is important in the pursuit of a first class. Having the right set of past questions, exam materials, handbooks, textbooks, etc. matters a lot. Most Nigerian lecturers have different handbooks, textbooks or online materials they are comfortable with. They often set exams from these handbooks and textbooks. First class students are aware of these and sought to get the necessary information.
Forget secondary school days when you can be completely independent and isolated. In the university, you will likely encounter academic challenges one way or the other, you matter how good you are. You will need the help of others who are equally good. Build high walls around you and it’s almost a certainty that you won’t graduate with a first class.

8. Helping others during exams- I have seen and read about how potential first class students make this mistake that can deprive them of not just their dream grade but their entire aspiration. A lot of people look up to first class students to help them during exams, not minding the distraction it may cost them. Some even make monetary requests for first class students to write exams on their behalf. Time after time, brilliant students keep falling for this trap without thinking of the consequence of being expelled or rusticated.
In many cases, first class students already have good reputations amongst their fellow students and lecturers, and being caught teaching in exams can soil that reputation.

9. Not attending classes -I have seen many that graduate with 2.1 that ‘stabbed’ classes on a regular basis. But I am yet to see or hear of a genuine first class student/graduate that deliberately missed classes frequently at least in their last 2 years of study. They attend classes because 1) They want to listen to the salient points made by the lecturers so that they can understand better and prepare well for tests and exams. Attending classes is one way of getting information 2) First class students are perceived to represent the department and generally have a good image. Not attending classes can damage their reputation 3) Many lecturers take attendance seriously and allocate marks to attendance 4) There can be impromptu tests and classworks during classes.
You want to graduate with a first class but you keep skipping classes? Then think twice.

10. Not taking care of your health-Some, in the bid to get a first class, spend almost all their time and energy reading. They are always in class reading or attending one tutorial or the other, and they often do overnight reading not minding the fact that their body needs to be catered for. Consequently, they experience frequent health breakdowns, and this can cause serious setbacks in their dream to achieve a first class. Nothing can be more frustrating that falling ill in an academic session. Wanting to have a first class does not mean that you cannot eat well, rest when necessary, relax, play games and manage stress. Nurture your health. Health is wealth

Last year, the Ugandan president sparked
widespread outrage when he banned the mini-skirt.
He warned women against wearing ‘short and
revealing’ skirts because it is unacceptable in African
cultures.

The internet went into over-drive; Facebook,
Twitter and other social media networks were abuzz
with irritated and angry people.

It is important to note that in Nigeria, most teenage girls have been victims of sexual assault.

What are my thoughts on the matter?
What a woman wears has nothing to do with rape. Life doesn’t have to be a skin show, but it sure doesn’t have to be suffocating for women.
Everyone has a right to choose what they wear. We
should never force anyone to do anything because
that’s taking away their freedom.

I could go on and on but let me know what you think:

Do you also think that “just because you’ve got it,
doesn’t mean you should flaunt it”?

Is it anyone’s business what a woman wears?

Are mini-skirts risque?

Fire outbreaks have in recent years been a recurring problem in Lagos, wreaking much havoc which included the destruction of lives and property.

A fire incident that ravaged parts of the Dumping ground section of the popular LAWMA office(Bowler) at Oko-filling Bus-stop, Igando -Ikotun in Alimosho, Lagos state, on Sunday January 11, 2014.

Men of the State Fire Service, however, successfully contained the inferno, which began at about 11:0am.

Fire fighters couldn't achieve much due to inadequate water in their water tank but thanks to one of the landlord on the Mike-Anison Street who gave out water for free to the fire fighters.

Fire outbreaks have in recent years been a recurring problem in Lagos, wreaking much havoc which included the destruction of lives and property.

A fire incident that ravaged parts of the Dumping ground section of the popular LAWMA office(Bowler) at Oko-filling Bus-stop, Igando -Ikotun in Alimosho, Lagos state, on Sunday January 11, 2014.

Men of the State Fire Service, however, successfully contained the inferno, which began at about 11:0am.

Fire fighters couldn't achieve much due to inadequate water in their water tank but thanks to one of the landlord on the Mike-Anison Street who gave out water for free to the fire fighters.
