Hi Nancy,
Hope this makes sense, if not, let me know and l'll stop by...
Spoke with a couple of programmers and here's some ideas:
1..
Getting tweets from coders who are
programming for some notable firms to tweet
to our hashtag ...e.g. NASA coders!?l...Johnson
Space Center, Mission Control, etc (Paula may
be a lead on coders with this grouP)
2.
How about hosting a Communities conference
of teachers who are already teaching
programming: arduino, or lava or .net convene
at one HISD site and formalize the community
to take advantage of the knowledge base that
has already done a lot of valuable work: identify
them by skill level by content by
grade(HS/MS/ES)...developers
like communities
to talk about codlng:
a. What do you need help with to do your
job
How
can we give you what you need in a
b.
c.
d.
better way
Are there any hindrances?
Where do you imbed your programming
work into your curriculum?
3.
There are groups of coding societies in Houston
4.
Get some footage of our own coders describing
code that they are writing...one voice after
another maybe..."l'm writing code that will tell
the school bell to ring at a certain time; l'm
writing the code that will send messages to the
principals, etc....we have to really work with
them (may not be the most animated folks) but
some are really great and are convinced that
there are TEACHERS out there that are very
effective....
Coders talk to each other around the world
discussing all types of technical questions...one
listed below is a live Microsoft conference
happening now...here are some websites and
maybe we can get them to tweet encouraging
reasons to code or important reasons to code...

What is CodeProject?
CodeProject is a communitY of
Software development and
Design developers joined
together with certain common
goals: to learn, to teach and to
have fun programming.
Developers from all over the
world come together to share
source code, tutorials and
knowledge for free to help their
fellow programmers.
It is our hope that you find
CodeProject to be a wealth of
information and a valuable
resource. All we ask is that if you
find CodeProject useful, then
please share what source code or
knowledge you can in order to
give back to the communitY.
Above and beyond articles and
code snippets, CodeProject gives
h

I
developers a voice. We have over
3.5 million people reading
CodeProject each month,
including those from companies
such as Microsoft, Sun, Oracle,
and more. CodeProject brings
industry and the developer
community together,
