I don't think I know enough to contribute anything, but I'll see if I could
perhaps write up something from what I learn here, perhaps making it more
user-friendly.

Would you like to write some content for it Waffles? The version at 
http://whywentcamping.com/The-Camping-Book is a wiki - you can edit it by 
clicking the pencil, though you need a github account as it's a mirror of the 
camping/camping github wiki

I think there's nothing more fun than finding noobs and teaching  
them how to make awesome hacks! I know some of you guys think like  
I do, and I want to know which ones of you that is?


I'm one of those.

I've a project in mind, and it's going to take some doing. I could  
do it myself, but it'd be way better with a bunch of total geniuses  
at the helm than just silly old me.


how about drawing on the wisdom of multiple silly old mes? I'm no  
uber-specialist, but I do have a good understanding of the  
difficulties people have with this stuff. With a stupid number of  
projects on the go, I'm not promising anything, but what's the idea?


It's probably time for someone to make a new Camping screencast...

So seeing as today is WhyDay and all, it seems like we should be  
thinking about the kids, and about teaching, and about drawing  
pictures of little silly people talking about silly things which  
somehow leads to education through nothing more than a thick  
coating of irrelevance.


(I thought WhyDay was August 19th?) now that's one of the reasons I  
joined this list - I wanted to use Camping as a way of introducing  
students to the next step after HTML/CSS. In the end, I only ever had  
on who was interested.



TL;DR; I want brains. Braains http://cl.ly/0i1Q3S0A1017470j2c2r

Teaching

2011-08-30 Thread Jenna Fox
Who here loves teaching?

I love teaching. I think there's nothing more fun than finding someone brand 
new to programming, and helping them out of the cockpit of freenode and dancing 
about, swinging around trees and giggling gleefully while downing endless 
bottles of cider and.. wait..

I think there's nothing more fun than finding noobs and teaching them how to 
make awesome hacks! I know some of you guys think like I do, and I want to know 
which ones of you that is?

I've a project in mind, and it's going to take some doing. I could do it 
myself, but it'd be way better with a bunch of total geniuses at the helm than 
just silly old me.

So seeing as today is WhyDay and all, it seems like we should be thinking about 
the kids, and about teaching, and about drawing pictures of little silly people 
talking about silly things which somehow leads to education through nothing 
more than a thick coating of irrelevance.
