Re: Community college outreach ideas, and more?

Hi there,

I am new to the CG, and very exited about the initiatives in this group.

I am +1 with the language grouping. As for different segments, the following can be considered: Students, Education professionals, Healthcare Processionals, Telecom/Mobile, Financial and Banking, Media and Publishing.

I would like to participate more in the areas of Outreach, International Education. I have some experience dealing with telecom/mobile developers as well.

Hi all,

Just a heads up - one of our members, the esteemed mr Mark Dubois, has started a section on the Wiki about outreach to community colleges. See http://www.w3.org/community/webed/wiki/Outreach#Community_college_outreach_program

There isn't much here yet, but if anyone here has useful contacts in the community college space, or ideas about outreach to community colleges, please add them here.

This also raises another question - how we break up outreach work. By country or language sounds like it makes sense, but we could also consider looking at specific groups that various members of the WebEdCG might have particular experience in, or influence over. Community Colleges sounds like a good groups to deal with separately, imo.

Thoughts?
