I've been distracted lately by all of the work that the micro-python group have been doing to support the BBC micro:bit. Work that continues and needs your support. 1. Work is continuing on Mu the learner focused Python IDE. The team would really appreciate your thoughts and feedback, especially if you work with young people or those new to Python. You can do so here, on another thread or on the Microbit-Python mailing list. 2. Support for teachers/learners. If you need support learning python or teaching with python then why not start a thread here? A wonderful Python community person will help you out. This is a really quick and simply way that members can get involved. They want to help you! 3. Lesson plans, tutorials/resources. Have you written any that you want to share with others? Then share them here with a new thread. Spread the love! 4. Documentation. Recently CodeBoom wrote a really good blog post about the lack of good documentation for python modules that are used in education. Could educators on this list, collate their most used modules that need documenting for those wanting to get started with them. Could others help with this? 5. Education bundle. Dan Pope started a thread sharing his progress on this. Can you provide feedback, ideas, suggestions, a pat on the back, testing opportunities in the future? The moral here is do not let this WG die! Everyone always asks me "how can I get involved?" Educators share your success, failures and frustrations. Community members share your ideas, solutions and good-will.
