FOCES ACTIVITY REPORT (Interim)
(as on 07-08-2010)
.
Forum Of Computer Engineering Students (FOCES) is the official forum of the Computer Engineering students and is the most vibrant organization in CEC. It’s the platform where CS students can share, implement and develop their productive ideas. Also it welcomes the freshers into the world of computer engineering by conducting essential orientation classes. Since the renovation on January, 2010 its popularity among students is on the rise. A brief report of the various activities taken place or done by FOCES is presented here.
.
The new executive council members took charge of the FOCES on January, 2010.The first program was to renovate FOCES in all manners, FOCES introduces a new logo and motto and made a huge campaign to extend its reach among students. In order to have more interaction with the students FOCES opened its new blog, SMS channel and Google group. Under the guidance of Mrs. Jyothirmayi Devi various activities to be done this year was formulated.

The first program of FOCES in 2010 was a talk on “How to convert ideas to codes” by Anoop Thomas Mathew (2010 batch). The event was conducted on February 6th in two sessions and we provide a little refreshment for the participants between the sessions. Participants got a glance of various programming languages and the need of the hour. The feedback we got after the program tells us that it was very interesting and informative for students.
.
Two weeks later we conducted a week long workshop on ‘Adobe Photoshop’ in computer lab3 from 4 pm to 5 pm. Workshop was conducted by the second year students and almost 25 students participated. Most of the basics were covered and there was a popular outcry for extending the workshop to some more days, but due to the non-availability of lab and supervising staffs we had to reject that request. Rahul Raj, Yacko Abrams, Gopikrishnan.S took the classes and was very interesting.

In the beginning of academic year 2010-2011 to give guidance to fourth year students about “How to prepare for Seminar” we conducted a workshop and our Principal Prof.(Dr).V.P.Devassia took the class. A good number of students from both third and fourth year participated in the class. After this program we got many requests to conduct a workshop on PHP and so we decide to conduct that. A four day long workshop on PHP was conducted from 12th July to 16th July in computer lab 5.Abijith.M of S7 C took the class, first two days he concentrated on HTML and then he taught students about creating web pages with the use of databases. The class was conducted in the afternoon session to suit the need of various interested students. More than 30 students turned up for

On 22nd July FOCES got introduced to freshers and their parents and distributed our card too. We also got a chance to introduce the activities of FOCES to first year students in the very first day of their classes. From 2nd August to 5th August we conducted a training and workshop on Java in computer lab 5. Ansar of S7 C took the class and Anoop Ninan George and Reenu Sara George of S7 D aided him. About 25 students participated in the event.
