Discussing this Thursday 6/15

danielryne commented 7 years ago

Latinitas is interested in discussing how to integrate use of Budget Party into their after school programs this fall. They have about 10 - 15 after school clubs, and each of these clubs has 8-10 girls participating (so 100+ students). They want to meet with someone to talk about:

How best to integrate this into something they can use this fall?
What would be the goals of using the budget party? Like presenting back to city council?
How can they get their club facilitators trained on the curriculum.

@mateoclarke and @VictoriaODell Who can I follow up with to set up a meting with them to discuss this?

mateoclarke commented 7 years ago

Awesome news! I think we should discuss IRL, but I could see @secmorris (Sarah Morris) playing a role in this, especially regarding integration and training. (Assuming she's interested and available).

secmorris commented 7 years ago

That's great! @danielryne put me in touch with Latinitas to chat about the fake news curriculum, and I'm setting up a July meeting with them. But I'd be very happy to talk about integrating budget party as well. Should we set up an IRL meeting with @mateoclarke @VictoriaODell, me, and Latinitas sometime?

I have a number of contacts within Boys and Girls Club, which has a partnership with Dell for 'Club Tech'. This could be a great avenue for getting the curriculum into schools/after-school clubs.

I also know some charter school teachers and administrators that would be definitely willing to provide feedback and consideration.

This issue has changed a lot but recently @alexpriceco met with Generation Citizen to chat more with them about the use of the curriculum.
