Scrollback learning week - the first glimpse

The Scrollback learning week is an initiative by the Scrollback Campus Ambassador program, where all Scrollbackers come together to organize an entire week of online learning. The event dates, as decided with the help of all Campus Ambassadors and buddies, are 19th to 23rd of January 2015.

The event format is going to be simple. 5 days, 5 different topics to be discussed on Scrollback. Each session will be for 2-3 hours, every evening. Some domain experts will be invited to facilitate these session.

The 5 different topics we have decided till now -
  1. Tips to crack you GRE, GMAT, GATE
  2. Being a Freelancer while you are still a student
  3. Being an Entrepreneur while you are still a student
  4. Alternate Career options - Youtubing as a career
  5. Profile building - how to find those right extracurricular activities and put them in your resume, before sitting for your first placement activity (including GSOC, OPW, Hacker Schools)
[We are currently working with different domain experts to find the right people to help us facilitate these sessions on Scrollback]

To make this event successful, we will need a lot of help from all our Scrollback Campus Ambassadors and buddies. Its an event by all Scrollbackers, and thus, we will depend on our Scrollbackers to help us reach out to a bigger audience for this event.

Whats in it for our Scrollbackers?

To make this activity fun, we thought of rewarding all the Scrollbackers, who help us in the organization of this event, in a very special way. We are going to give points to all our Scrollbackers against every work that they do for this event in the following manner:
  • Facebook / Twitter share - 5 points
  • If their Facebook post gets re-shared or their tweets get re-tweeted - 3 points
  • Blog post about the event - 10 points
  • Put posters around colleges, click pictures and share it with us - 8 points
A leader-board will be maintained for all our Scrollbackers and at the end of the event, based on the scores, the top 2 Scrollbackers will be awarded some cool tokens of appreciation.
