Moreover, Walter
This year GSOC Summit we had a new introduction about Open source season of
doc that is also a program major focused only on doc alongside with gsoc
and this gonna be live from next year.
I think this will be our good chance to outreach in terms of writing.

Well in the previous GCI, I created a wiki page to collect all the design

So I would suggest that if you can paste all the designs here so that they

Re: [IAEP] [Sugar-devel] Call for Design Team meeting

[Jaskirat Singh]

Hi all,

This initiative is good amd i think there should be some changing of schema
wuthin sugar.
So is it possible to conduct meeting on Thursday same time or prepone the
meeting time as i guess no Indian can attend the meeting at tgis time due
to late mid night.
So it would be great if this meeting can be rechedule either one day before
or prepone the time.

Thanks

 We seem to have sufficient interest from the community to apply to
 Google Code-in again this year. Lots of returning mentors and some students
 who have morphed into mentors as well. But I will not apply w/o SLOB
 approval.

 Motion: Sugar Labs will apply to participate in Google Code-in 2018.
 Walter will be the primary administrator.

 Time in of the essence as the schedule this year has applications
 starting this week, so please respond ASAP.

 regards.

[IAEP] Live event of Turtle Blocks organised in India

[Jaskirat Singh]

Hello everyone !

Thanks James ! for suggesting this to write it here.
Well after great discussion with Walter Bender and Computer Department
teachers here, I and Walter Bender organised a seminar  in the Sacred Heart
Convent School, Jagadhri, Haryana, India about Turtle Blocks where he was
live from USA  through Video Call.
Though the event was of short duration but we covered most of the things
and students were quite active in understanding it and in putting up their
queries.
Earlier Teachers were not sure that if students will act upon this seminar
but later they were so attracted that they decided to have some more events
like this ..! And i was quite happy at that time.
So special thanks to Walter Bender who spared his sleeping time to talk to
students.
Walter Bender now its time to organise a broad base workshop in India which
will involve everyone to participate and also will keep something for
senior students.
Hope he agree to this proposal !
I have attavhed a link to few photographs of the event

Thanks

[IAEP] Sugar Labs 2018 Goals idea

[Jaskirat Singh]

Hello ,

I am Jaskirat Singh, SL community member.
Seeking towards Sugar labs Goals 2018 Well, it will be good to have a
program like  showcase Schools , that means we could make an event or
program named as SHOWCASE SUGAR LABS SCHOOLS in which our marketing team
should get involved and  target schools , and other educational centers ,
conducting seminars and guiding teachers, getting introduced about the
Sugar labs and how it can be beneficial to them . We could have some type
of achievements in that so that if a particular school satisfy that
criteria will be given a title of SL authorized labs .
Moreover for this we can conduct online competitions . Because as far i
have observed is that schools involve only when they are benefitted in some
way . So it is also necessary to conduct some programs competitions
then only we will be able to promote and spread SL across the globe
...!
So for this  The schools which will become SL showcase schools ,will have
those seminars and also later we can make STUDENT EXPERTS in those
particular schools so that those students after going through all the
things in SL will conduct seminars and all other events and teach others
about the things like activities ( music blocks ,turtle, etc) and when they
will tell about this to others then they will seek more users.
But as far i know that this could only be possible if we develop some
program and allow more school comp department teachers to compete in those
( by documentation work that they have to pick an activity or something
related to sugar,  use sugar things ,and develop something with help of
those resources and then send to us ...so will go through it and select the
work according to it we can select schools for showcase and also these type
of schools can be given some type of rewards ) i think it will be good to
outreach ...! And yes will be interested too also for this we can go for
special website named as education center for it where users can have
different courses for it and go through it. Even i have started to get SL
introduced in nearby schools.
I hope this idea would work and please feel free to talk about these for
suggestions as well as opinions

Thanks
