Hi Mozillians,

I am Irfana Tabassum
from Warangal. I'm a newbie in Mozilla and heading towards
contributing to Web Maker Project. I am really lucky to get in touch with Meraj who helped in getting started with Web Maker Project by
introducing COMPED program initiated by Gautham Raj!! I have created a small event with my neighbors. Please read my blog here.

Here is my blog: http://irfanatabassum.blogspot.in/2014/01/my-first-step-towards-thousand-miles-of.html

Regards,
Irfana Tabassum

Hey Shreyas.


I am very glad to hear that you liked my work. Thank you for
your appriciation Shreyas. When I started the event I saw a great
response from the kids and when I met waheed (who is deaf and dumb) the
way he expressed his interest had memerised me, and
i have took it as a challenging task for me. By the end of the event
when I saw a smile on his face , I found that he grasped the knowledge
which I wanted him to learn and I realised that I have done a good job
and I Want to put forth my effort to teach people
the importance of web and specially to make people aware of Firefox(my
favourate browser). I hope I may change my surronding with my passion. I
am also passionate to know more about firefox and to work with Firefox.



Regards,


Irfana Tabassum!!

What a charming blog, Irfana! Keep it up :) It looks like the young people you worked with really enjoyed their time.

If they graduate to making some web pages or remixing their favourite sites with the X-Ray Goggles, please send us what they made!

This photo is so great:

Irfana, this was such a great story and blog post, we nominated you as a Friend of Mozilla.
This means you'll have your name read out with a photo and link to your blog post in today's Mozilla All Hands meetings.
So that everyone in the Mozilla community can see it .
https://wiki.mozilla.org/WeeklyUpdates/2014-01-20#Friends_of_Mozilla

Gauthamraj: is there a ticket for the "COMPED" course material work you mentioned?
If not, can you add one here? Really want to get that added to Webmaker.org -- it'll be super valuable for others.
http://mzl.la/Webmaker_ticket

Keep up the great work guys.

Thanks Raj.

If other want to get involved in creating this kit, we're working on it together here:

Create project "COMPED" teaching kit / course materials for teaching computer basics
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=961764

The goal: create a teaching kit and resources for teaching people who are new to computers.
To teach basic fundamentals (how to turn the computer on, use a mouse, etc.) they may need before getting deeper into web literacy.
