hub

From time to time we need to send a message to all hub and/or edoovillage managers. For instance, when there is an announcement to be made about a new platform feature or a new release of the Labdoo educational software images. This can be done from the special Team called "The Coffee Shop": https://www.labdoo.org/content/coffee-shop/activities

To write a message to reach out to all hub and/or edoovillage managers, do as follows:

This is a poster that you can print and display near your hub to give you more visibility. The poster will allow people walking by your hub to know that in your location they can bring their unused laptops.

If you would like to translate this poster to a different language or to modify it in some way, please reach out to the Labdoo team at contact@labdoo.org.

To upload the pictures of your hub activities to your hub photo album, do as follows:

1. Make sure you are logged in to Labdoo.org. (If you are not logged in, go to https://www.labdoo.org/user/login and enter your username and password.)

A la xarxa humanitària Labdoo, tothom pot participar en la tasca d'ajudar a difondre l'educació arreu del món. Quan un o més dels participants actuen junts amb regularitat des d'una mateixa zona geogràfica, poden crear el seu propi hub de Labdoo. Un hub és un grup de persones que es reuneixen de tant en tant per fer activitats com ara recollir i sanejar ordinadors portàtils inutilitzats, organitzar dootrips (viatges per portar el ordinadors), reciclar aquests dispositius o organitzar activitats per sensibilitzar la societat (xerrades, presentacions, etc.), entre d'altres.

As a hub manager, you will have the capability to activate some triggers allowing you to automatically receive notifications upon certain events that might be of interest to your hub operations. To manage your notification triggers, click first on 'My account' to go to your account page. From there, click on the 'Edit profile' tab. This will open your profile configuration page. In that page, scroll down until you see the section 'Hub manager notifications'.

When creating a new hub, send this welcome message to the new hub managers. Copy the message below into an email, substitute the keywords $HUBMANAGERNAME and $LINKTOTHENEWHUB for the name of the hub managers and the URL link to their newly created hub, respectively, and then send the message to the hub managers.

When you carry a laptop sanitation workshop, it's a good practice to organize your own workflow to ensure there is a proper coordination of the various tasks among your team members. While there are many different ways to do this and you can certainly be creative, here is a sample sanitation workshop template that you can use as a reference.

At Labdoo, the imagination is boundless. You can be creative and help in many different ways, from laptop donation to delivery of the laptops. Here is a small fraction of possible mini-tasks you can take quick action on.

Labdoo hubs can exist in many different places (at your home, at your work, as part of your NGO work, etc.). This wiki section is dedicated to hubs which are created within the premises of a school.

Labdoo School Hubs consist of Labdoo Hubs that are run by students (for example, at a high school) with the supervision of adults.

Managing a Labdoo School Hub provides an excellent leadership opportunity for students.
