I am new to Open Source. However i have earned a little contribution to an open source organisation Code for India.

Education is something which is very close to my heart. Sugar labs is an outstanding organisation. I am excited by each effort this organisation takes for child education. I came to know about sugar labs through OLPC laptops which i want in govt. schools of my capital with the help of existing Govt. Soon i explored the organisation and i started loving it. Fortunately Gsoc 15 was a step ahead so realized to finish something cool for kids & contribute to sugar labs as well.

'''If your project is successfully completed, what will its impact be on the Sugar Labs community? Give 3 answers, each 1-3 paragraphs in length. The first one should be yours. The other two should be answers from members of the Sugar Labs community, at least one of whom should be a Sugar Labs GSoC mentor.<br>

'''My Opionion''': Sugar believes that "Everyone is a teacher and a learner". My projects Physics & Dimensions would be one of the best available tools for learners and teachers. Around 3 Million Children are sugar users. We want Sugar and Sugar activities freely and readily available to learners everywhere, hence web ports are a dire need saying web platform are a faster & cheapest. Kids at any corner of world would be able to learn Physics quite practically and Dimensions to increase their observational skills that helps them think quickly & enrich their mental abilities.

'''What will you do if you get stuck on your project and your mentor isn't around?'''
'''What will you do if you get stuck on your project and your mentor isn't around?'''
If i am stuck i always like to move on and keep the doubt in my stack. Will produce it once my mentor is back. Depending on the issue i get i will try first finding solution on my own via relevant sources say Google,StackOverflow,Sugar IRC etc. I feel there are lot of ways i can tackel this situation. Hence i will try to look upon myself for the solution in case my mentor is not around.
'''How do you propose you will be keeping the community informed of your progress and any problems or questions you might have over the course of the project?'''

I am planning to maintain a blog and update my progress every sunday on my sugar wiki account. I am quite active on IRC as well and i believe is the fastest medium for me. Once my mentor appears i will pass links to my code,wiki,blogs to him to have a quick check up. I will create a thread on Mailing List as well that would help other developers for regular updates on PhyscisJS and DimensionsJS Development.

'''Describe a great learning experience you had as a child.'''
'''Describe a great learning experience you had as a child.'''
It was when i was in 6th standard. My Physics teacher asked me to explain the class, differences between "Regular & Irregular Reflections of Light".
I had a jumping ball in my bag. I asked my teacher, will he allow me to show a demo. He allowed and i did two experiments:
1. I asked class will ball bounce to me back if i throw it on smooth blackboard. They said yes. ''Hence "Regular Reflection". You can predict reflection behaviour in advance.''
2. I asked class which direction ball would reflect if i throw it to the rough wall near window, they couldn't answer and everybody gave different answers. ''Hence "Irregular Reflections". You cannot predict the reflection behaviour in advance. ''
