This workshop was about introducing students to digital and smart voice assistant called Amazon Alexa. Started from the very basics I explained all about developing skills for Amazon Alexa. How to use Alexa-hosted backend to write your own logic for the Alexa skill.
Encode(Programming club of PDPU) approached me to conduct a session on Alexa skill development.

The quality of the workshop could have been better if I had more moderators who could guide the participants when they were stuck at any step or were lagging.
I had to individually go to each participant and solve their problem. So I was able to cover less content.

Feedback received from the participants can be found over here. Overall it was good and everyone enjoyed it a lot!
Zero. Zip. Zilch. Nada. Nothing.
As a speaker, I didn't charge anything for conducting this session. But the univeristy did, this workshop was a part of Tech-Fest of PDPU. So the entry fees for this event set by the university was ₹130.
😎In fact, I got swags for all the participants from the Amazon Alexa India Team.
Number of people attended the workshop including the Encode Committee members were more than 100.
