Hi friends,
This is a blog in the recently conducted event called “Makerparty – A Festival Of Learning”. This event took place on 14th September 2014. This time, the mentors thought of having a meeting first and then head for the main event for a change. So, the mentors came together in our community space “Collab House” at 10:00 A.M. where we had a 3 hour long discussion. During this time, Srikar Ananthula and Raghu Ram told every other mentor what has to be done, explained various parts of Mozilla Corporation and Mozilla Foundation, cleared their doubts etc. This went on till 12:00 A.M. Then, all the mentors gave a few valuable suggestions and feed backs which could help grow our community. Then, the work was distributed among the mentors so that there was no collision of work and the progress could be tracked easily.
After this, it was time for our event. Many people started coming. The event started at 1:00 P.M. as scheduled. Here, we had a brainstorming session on Exploring the way Web works and it’s open standards, Web Literacy and Mozilla’s Mission on Makerparty, Interactive Events to collaborate and to share Passion for the web, Introduction to Webmaker and Hands-on making and learning using Webmaker tools thus Change the learning landscape by me. This went on till 5:00 P.M.
In between, Srikar Ananthula brought tasty Biryani (a famous Indian food) for everyone. Everyone had their stomach full food and got back to work. Then, we had 2 attendees who shared their knowledge on SQL Injection and Security. They took a session on it and then a bit about GitHub(pull, push & branching). Those two were surprised to know there were contributors and Hyderabad community who actively contribute to Mozilla. The session went on till 6:30 P.M. Then, the mentors came together again to discuss the feed backs and suggestions that were received and planned for the event which was scheduled for next Sunday.
P.S. This event, marking the end of Maker Party in Mozilla Club Hyderabad, which was the biggest Maker Party this season in our community.
It would be best to thank all the mentors for making this season a huge success in Mozilla Club Hyderabad.
