Mozilla Community Rajasthan.

Mozilla Community Rajasthan is a constatly progressing community.
Recently , It launched an awesome program of SIG , ie , Special interest Groups.
On 25 th OCTOBER 2015 a meet up was organized by Reps of the MCR community, Mr. Trishul Goel and Mr. Osho Parth.  The sole purpose of this meet up was to discuss the future goals and targets to be achieved by the Mozilla Community Rajasthan.

Introduction session proved very helpful in calculating the present state of the community.
Many different Points were dicussed and lot of suggestions were proposed. 


 The following points were discussed:

  •      Getting a common forum for interaction among the FSAs of various colleges, prime focus on using the hackpad and etherpad for communication. 

  •       Activities involving coding should be the prime focus.

  •      A sub mentor from each college under each verticle should be allotted.

  •          More events should be conducted at school level.

  •          Promotion of the participation for FSA program from other educational institutes.

  •      Creation of Individual college etherpads.






The meetup was concluded by snacks and then a small photo taking session.All and all it was a very good meetup and hope that everybody in MCR will work in a more coordinated manner.

Maker Party @JODHPUR

 Event Report



       Maker Party(Teach the web) – Jodhpur, Rajasthan, India
     School Name: Bal Niketan
        Date: 8th Aug Time: 10 a.m. – 1 p.m.



What a Journey it has been , Quiet Overwhelming I must Say . From Knowing Nothing About Makerparties to hosting one. Loving the experience of Public speaking and Evangelism. Now it was the time for Jodhpur To witness Another maker Party. I was told about having an audience of 200 but due to Saturday , The gathering was approximately  120-150.

The Target Audience was the children of Class 11 and 12 , but I was Told to take a small session of class 9 and 10 also.I started with Interacting the children of class 11 and 12 merged in a hall. They Seem Quite Interested in Knowing more about Web and its Uses.
I started the session by Delivering content on What is web and how it is Useful.
I briefed them about what sort of Things they can do on web that can make their life easier including basic things like ticket booking , banking , recharges , shopping , etc. This session turned interesting when students started to put questions on how things are done and I was quite happy to teach them.

Due to Connectivity issues and Lack of Computer Labs , I was restricted to let them have a hands on webmaker but I tried my best to introduce them to its features.The Session stretched about 2 hours and then I was told to switch to junior Classes.


Juniors were even more enthusiastic and were quite eager and curious to learn new things. I introduce them to the internet world and how it can help them in their projects and learning.I also taught them some basic HTML tags.Then I took a small quiz . I concluded the Session by Distributing the swags to the students who answered the quiz questions.
