CHCI Student Symposium

May 3, 2021

The CHCI student symposium was held in conjunction with CHCI’s “All Hands” end of year meeting on May 6th, 2021. The meeting will be held from 1:00 to 3:00, with 1:45 to 3:00 being dedicated to the student symposium. If you weren’t able to make the symposium, you can see the presentation in Hubs here.

Mozilla Hubs is an online 3D virtual environment where multiple people can view and discuss their work. Everyone has an avatar and you are free to move about the virtual space as you please.

Students (individuals and teams) are invited to share their work via a poster (JPG, PDF or PNG), demonstration, (video, or something built specifically for Hubs) or 3D model.
