Re: [Sugar-devel] High School Programmer Volunteer?

I can give it a go. I'm planning a sequence of lessons on Python using
the programmable tiles in Turtle Art, ranging from simple function
calls to whole programs calling various libraries.

Does this student have a project picked out, or is he willing to take
on whatever we have for him? Which version of Sugar does he have
available?

Caroline,

We've seen a lot of student volunteers come and go, but I might be
willing to help this kid.  One thing I need to know is what is meant
by "Remote programming type task?"

Can anyone studying in high school like me mentor a high school
student you are talking about??:)

There is no need for it. I have less experience, way too less, but
still, I want to learn everything new I look at. I think he has the
same feeling and curiosity:)

Please contact me if you have any questions,

-Abhishek

Thanks,
Caroline

[Sugar-devel] High School Programmer Volunteer?

2009-09-30 Thread Caroline Meeks
I have a volunteer high school student who needs to do community service for
school. He's done a bit of python and would like to help us with a remote
programming type task.
Does anyone want to mentor?  This might be a nice thing for a slightly more
experienced person also new to the project or an activity maintainer who is
feeling short on time but might have time to guide and check someone's
work?

I don't know the students' skill level, perhaps if there is a mentor we
could set up a trial period so if he is not up to the right level there is a
way out of the relationship.

Thanks,
Caroline
