I'd love to hear about advice on
Oh that's given me a few ideas:
I would appreciate advice on:
How to reach out to people who would like to go back to school. motivating students and make them feel motivated, not intimidated by computer science.
I'd like advice about:
Tech track suggestions:
@BlueHatbRit oh wow, you've activated my trap card with that FP one. I can definitely talk FP on the web :D
Event promotion / social media growth / etc.
Basically, if I'm running an event or something, how do I get the word out?
I'd quite like to hear from @PeterDaveHello on how he has so much time to contribute to OSS. Managing your own project getting into contributing etc.
I see @alyssais is also now a brew contributor so i think hearing from both of them would be cool
Another suggestion, I'd love to hear some tips about branding a community through copy and visual design.
Something that I would find quite useful would be learning about community structures i.e. the roles within a community and community administration.
Also +1 for @BlueHatbRit 's point about the knowledge/experience gap between the "newbies" and "experts".
Maybe this is getting a bit late now, but I'd love to hear something about time management. I sucked last year, and I'm sucking slightly less this year, but I still suck. Realise this is quite a broad subject, but a lot of people aren't very good at it.
@sprusr if your university has like one off day courses on leadership/management type stuff thats also a good way to learn. I've done that, was pretty useful
Hey folks!
As the calendar is looking super full right now, just wanted to comment here. A lot of your suggestions won't fit into the 8 weeks as stands, but that doesn't mean they won't happen. I'll be going out to find these talks (a couple are already lined up, it's just the speakers weren't available in the training period :( ) and will email out invites and notifications when we know more!
We want to invite some guest speakers to our upcoming office hours. What topics or sort of guest speakers would you like to see?
Below are some topics we're thinking about presenting. We want to know if these are topics you're interested in, and we want to hear you own suggestions or thoughts in this issue.
