1. Choose your Key Issue. Finding a theme will help you design a compelling event. What are you passionate about? What themes will your participants enjoy?
   
   Here are some key themes:
   • 
     The Environment: At one jam, Hacking Citizen Science on Earth Day, participants collected data about their carbon footprint, compiled that info into webpages, and linked to them from an interactive game hosted by the New York Hall of Science.
   • Entrepreneurship: At an Entrepreneurship 101 jam, teen designers used the Hackasaurus tools to set up websites for their budding inventions and businesses.
2. 
   Set your learning objectives. Determine what you want participants to learn and/or make at your event. Setting goals helps participants and organizers alike prepare for the event. Here are some sample learning objectives from a Hackasaurus Learning Lab that you can build on.
    
3. Write or record a description. Take a first stab at a title and short description of your event. The description will change as you solidify your agenda, but having a first draft will help you define your strategy.

   Here are some examples:

   • Scribbling on the Internet by Andrea Zellner
   • Ashoka Changemakers proposal by The After School Corporation

Post your event title, description and a list of learning objectives in the Task Discussion. Give two of your peers feedback on their ideas and descriptions.

Alternatively, you can post your work for this challenge on your blog and link to it in the Task Discussion.
