Revision as of 11:20, 13 March 2013

30-50 high school physics students are coming to visit Noisebridge with their teacher Amber and another teacher on Tuesday April 2, 2013 from 10:00 to 13:00 AND Wednesday April 3rd. Sign up here if you have a skill you would like to teach to a small (or large) group. There will be 30-50 students on each day.

They would like to learn soldering and anything about electronics and wiring.

Context: students will be starting to learn about electromagnetism and will be putting their finishing touches on their solar homes and be building speakers or wiring their solar home the next week after the field trip. Anybody willing to teach a class about speakers, circuit bending, or anyway that you have applied EM knowledge to your current projects or past projects please sign up below!

We should organize this page into time slots and stations for teaching, with notes on the capacity for each station.


  • Liz (beginning soldering, hacking 101, contribute to Firefox)
  • Dru (science, tech, egalitarian decision-making, Neuroscience, C++ & Java)
  • Mitch (teach how to solder, electronics, show fun and simple projects -- but only after 11am)
  • Seth (tours)
  • Alex (video game development)
  • Lukas (just here to help in between work meetings)


Stations:

  • tours
  • laser cutter (4 people)
  • sewing
  • electronics
  • library
  • Turing classroom
  • Church classroom
  • 3D printers
  • kitchen
  • electronics lab
  • ??

Proposed Schedule:


  • 10:00: arrive, introduce Noisebridge, and tours
  • 10:30: station teaching segment 1
  • 11:00: station teaching segment 2
  • 11:30: station teaching segment 3
  • 12:00: station teaching segment 4
  • 12:30: station teaching segment 5
  • 13:00: leave Noisebridge

(is a half hour enough time per station?)
