In February 2014, our events were held in different schools near Manila.

We went to Philippine Agricultural Youth Leaders' Summit and gave a talk about "Applications for Agriculture in the Modern World." We've had a Thesis Ideation Seminar and a Dart Flight School event during the ICS Technology Expo of University of Santo Tomas on February 11 and 12, respectively. We also had our Dart Flight School Manila on February 15 at De La Salle University, Manila. In cooperation with PhilRobotics, we also talked about Android and Arduino at the Polytechnic University of The Philippines Annual ECE Conference (February 18).

Starting 2014 with Student Events

It's been a busy January 2014 for +GDG Philippines!

On the 18th of the January, the team traveled three hours to the City of Gapan, in the province of Nueva Ecija, for a whole-day of fun and learning for Nueva Ecija Technologies @ Work: Student Developers Day. Students from different universities and colleges in Nueva Ecija went to Waltermart Gapan to learn about Innovations @ Google, Google Apps, Android, Basic Game of Development, HTML5/CSS, Google Maps API, and Google Map Maker.

Then on the 24th and 25th, the community had a back-to-back GDG Campus Roadshow at University of Sto. Tomas (UST) and Manila Central University (MCU), respectively. In UST, we shared about Google Apps, Google Maps API, and the different programs of Google for college students. At MCU, we shared with the students Google Apps, Android, Google Maps API, and Game Development using HTML5. We even asked the students to pitch their winning idea during the end of the event, for them have an experience and overview of what's happening in the industry.

It was a fun January sharing about Google technologies! Now, this coming February, +GDG Philippines is participating in the Youth Leaders Agriculture Summit to share about the latest in technology that may be used in agriculture. We're also going to have a GDG Campus Roadshow in University of the Philippines Los Banos (UPLB). We're also planning to have a Dart Flight School Manila. It will be another busy month for the Google developer communities in Metro Manila and neighboring provinces.
