    some difficulties in learning the English materials from GDLs § Developers in those GDGs are often shy from engaging discussions with developers from elsewhere 3

  4. § Our Asks § To other GDGs in the world:

    § Share your experiences and best practices § To Google: § Run more localized GDL sessions § Provide us with English caption text file, so we can localize the content ourselves more easily 5
  5. § Worldwide GDG is a great resource for all of

    us! § We have many Google technology experts across the globe § We could & should leverage this large pool of resources • For our GDL events • Learn from each other 7
