Originally we planned this event to be a Maker Party. First we would teach students how to code in HTML and CSS. Second, we would provide them a sample code in Thimble and ask all the students to customize it and make their first Thimble Make. In the process, the students would be able to create their Webmaker accounts and we would ask them to explore Webmaker some more.

Sadly, due to unavailability of the Internet and time restrictions, we were not able to proceed with the second part of the event. Hopefully in the next semester, we will arrange a Maker Party.
