imiho, we need to make some initial scoping on audience. do we want to
target tweens and early teens with programming and computer concepts?
or so we want to target older students who have grown up with laptops,
the internet, and teach networking and services? or ...
my personal take is that there are a bunch of folk focused on serving
the younger set and making the next generation of programmers and UI
designers. and that is not really our main bailiwick. we should focus
on network and services engineering. but i am biased.
I agree. If we put our energy in this (and this is energy and time consuming)
we should teach something very specific to our community. Many things are
already there, we don't need to replicate them in a slightly worse way ;)
What is currently on my table, are two courses, one is a 3-4 days
hands-on course for networking beginners like "how to become a small
network admin" (wifi AP setup included) and another one,"how to setup
your own AS", for like 2-3 days. These are kinda getting some shape.
The thing is, and sorry if this comes out too rude … preparing a good
course is _very_ time-consuming, so i'm now aiming solely to commercial
teaching to get the time paid. However, I'm open to collaborations, and
if there could be some funding to do these courses for free or for an
affordable amount, I'll very happily accept it.
