Mozilla PH supports Technology Innovation Seminar

The Limay Polytechnic College Computer Club in cooperation with the Student Society on Information Technology Education (SSITE) - Region 3 invited the Team BPSU of Mozilla Student Representatives headed by Cherlowe Reinard T. Ramirez as one of their Resource Speakers during their Technology Innovation Seminar last February 15 at the Audio Visual Room of Limay Polytechnic College (LPC) with the theme: "An Instrument to Modernized World". This is one of the program of SSITE Region 3 to unite IT schools in the region by providing linkages to industry partners and communities that can help them conduct seminars in their institutions.

 

There were other topics discussed by students in their college such as Virtual Reality by Ms. Elmiralyn Tulud, Moodle by Mr. Eric Padayao and Intel Core 3rd Generation by Mr. Jeromy Peralta. As the highlight of the event, we talked last for the seminar. I was surprised that there were also non-IT/CS students attended the event such as Education, Business Administration and Technical Drafting. My topic was Mozilla for Students and Firefox OS to promote the new mobile software developed by Mozilla.

Q&A for Mozilla Swags

To optimize your browser, do update it to the latest version and plugin checker

One of the questions asked focus on comparison about other browsers in terms of speed and functionality. So we've demonstrated the awesome power of add-ons and how to optimize your browser with the help of Mozilla Support (SuMo). The participants have seen 3D website using tilt, getting the colors from a website using colorzilla and grabbing a picture via Pixlr Grabber. 
 

Promoting Firefox OS to the students of LPC

With the permission of the SSITE Region 3, we've promoted registration of this college to Philippine Society of IT Educators (PSITE) Region 3 Chapter as institutional member and individual members for their faculty by providing basic details and information in registration and its benefits. We've also invited them to participate in its annual gathering such as SCITE and SAITE every semester and be part of the SSITE Region 3 as local chapter.

Ramirez invited the students to join the Mozilla Student Reps Program and become contributor and member of Mozilla Philippines Community through localization and mozilla support. They can integrate it to their existing computer club as an activity for them. 

Mr. Remin Pasion, the adviser of Computer Club thanked the team for their efforts and helpto make the event successful and hoping to invite them again in their other events. #MozillaStudentsLPC #MozillaPH
