UK academic outreach #2

Closed jamiehowarth0 closed 3 years ago

jamiehowarth0 commented 4 years ago

For the next meeting, I'd like to get involved with UK K-12 outreach. I've signed up as a tutor for Code First: Girls & I'm reaching out to high schools in the south-west of England to start trying to work with them to develop code clubs.

That sounds great! Scheduling the next meeting now. Will add to the agenda if you are able to make it?

I'd love to, yes please 🙂

Update: I have a call next Tuesday with someone at CF:G to discuss developing an "Introduction to .NET Programming" course.

Further update: CF:G would love to explore developing two curricula for their courses - one on C# for sure, and one maybe on ASP.NET. Due to COVID-19 issues, we'd also like somebody from MS to help with access to Teams to enable virtual learning. @vnwonah would also like to help develop the C# curriculum for use outside the CF:G & UK.

Great. I just added a format for proposals and a sample proposal (feedback welcomed). Want to be our first proposal submitted?
