Hi Simran The policy level ninjas likely don't receive a daily update from Silicon Beach. :) I'm sure they would be happy to chat with you
Meanwhile, a few space related STEM programs are ramping up in Oz. - QubeRider.com, a Miru-D member, sells satellite kits on the cheap to schools. The kids can learn on the kit and eventually to test their code on a CubeSat which is being manifested for launch next year. - MARVEL, "Mars Virtual Lab", in collaboration with top planetary scientists from Adelaide making courses for 9-14 year olds - Nasa Space Apps challenge. There is a Sydney hackathon in April, open for anyone really but very student friendly. Feel free to reach out if any of these are of interest and I'm happy to connect Jason On Tuesday, 2 February 2016 18:11:36 UTC+11, simran wrote: > > Hi All, > > My kids primary school teacher this afternoon spoke to me about wanting to > introduce coding for the school (she's the person the principal looks to > for recommendation on tech; and she's very tech savvy). > > She was a little stuck on where to start though...
