Hello everyone,

In this thread we will update you about our Round Table Review event. There have been 4 sessions in which we reviewed some great topics, we will quickly run through the last sessions and inform you about how we are going to continue with this event.

In the Round Table Review sessions we review and discuss a certain topic. The topics we chose are international news items. The events are started of with ‘speakers’ who are all covering one certain sub-topic, after that we go on to the submitted questions. People who submitted questions have the option to get the microphone, so we can have some good discussions. Otherwise, when people don’t want to get the microphone, there are enough speakers available to have a good discussions and to share their opinion.

All these sessions were amazing; much people showed up (in the 3rd session we had 70 users in our TS channel!), the speakers did an amazing job and we have had some very good discussions.

There was a community member who really really liked the 1st and 2nd session of the Round Table Review and he did a very good job with asking questions. We thought it was a good idea to give him the opportunity to be speaker in the 3rd session, that turned out to be amazing and he did his part really really well. Thank you, MrMets!

When will we continue?

For now, we are gonna take a break. We thought this was better because we don’t have too many topics left and it’s very much work to organize it, which is a pain when school is starting again.

We are going to continue with the Round Table Review sessions in a couple of weeks, we have already some possible topics, but we are still searching for them. We would like to hear if you guys have any suggestions for topics we can use in future sessions, if you have an idea, please click on the link down below and submit your topic.

Topics:

  • Refugees problem in Europe
  • (More to be added soon)
Submit your topic suggestion here: https://goo.gl/4mYF5a

If you want to be speakers in one of the next RTR sessions, please let us (Hectorg98, Miner9823 or me) know via the form or via a DM on the forums or on Slack.

If I find any topics of significant interest I'll shoot them into the slack group. Great job so far, everyone!
