Lightning Talk 4Main HallMost junior high school students from rural areas do not have their own computers. Including me, I could only get access to computers while at school. Changes to the education curriculum for students have made IT subjects abolished so that we automatically lack the experience and knowledge to operate computers and other things related to it.
In the past year, several of my peers and I have gathered in a forum we call RGB (Rutinan Gambar Bareng) to learn the basics of operating FOSS vector graphics and getting used to interacting with computers in general. Of course, our forums don't always run smoothly.
In this session, I will present about our forum, the challenges while studying, the obstacles we face, and how we overcome them as students from rural areas.
