Some great resource from ISOC NY chapter bit.ly/csnycvid ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "Joly MacFie" <joly@punkcast.com> Date: Jan 8, 2015 2:49 PM Subject: [Chapter-delegates] VIDEOS: NYC Computer Science Education Meetup 2014 To: "ISOC Chapter Delegates" <chapter-delegates@elists.isoc.org> Cc: Happy New Year everyone! I trust you had a good holiday! For me I was able to blissfully ignore the big pile of un- or semi- processed video of 2014 events.,, But this week I have begun to grapple. And here is the first dose, to be followed by a good few more. The CSNYC initiative was founded in part by my fellow ISOC-NY VP Evan Korth, so it is a cause close to our hearts. It is beyond doubt that, in today's world, no child should be without some degree of formal training in Computer Science, and CSNYC aims to get it on the curriculum and in the budget of every school in our city. I hope these videos of our teacher gatherings may inspire others to mount similar efforts in their own locales. Please, even if you don't watch, try and think of someone - teacher or kid - that they might benefit and forward appropriately.
