Learning

edit

Projects do not always go according to plan. Sharing what you learned can help you and others plan similar projects in the future. Help the movement learn from your experience by answering the following questions:

  • What worked well?

Our team work from the beginning of the competition. Offline conversation with the team members help us to reach the actual target.

  • What did not work so well?

We work according to our plan to reach more users engagement to the competition. We expected more users (Uploaders) around 300+ but we lack there.
