Hi Folks, The HFOSS team will be presenting some new things we're working on at the SIGCAS-sponsored event at SIGCSE this March. We will be talking about the use of HFOSS "kits" where a kit contains a complete HFOSS project bundled along with student activities and an instructor guide for use. Kits are "plug and play" and the idea is to address the "installation challenge" that many instructors face when trying to support student involvement in HFOSS projects.
The event itself encompasses a variety of ways that Computing for Social Good can be included in a curriculum but we wanted you all to know that there will be a focus on HFOSS. There is limited funding for one night hotel coverage for POSSE alums. Please contact Heidi Ellis (el...@wne.edu<mailto:el...@wne.edu>) if you are interested in this support. The event is free, but registration is required to ensure that we have sufficient room. Formal announcement below. Enjoy! Heidi We are pleased to invite you to our 6th annual Computing for the Social Good in Education (CSG-Ed) in-person event. This free, SIGCAS-sponsored event will take place in-person on Wednesday March 20, 2024, from 8:30-5:00, as an affiliated SIGCSE Technical Symposium event in Portland, OR. For this year’s program, we come together as a community to discuss how to include CSG-Ed in your course or educational context as a way to fulfill the CS2023 recommendations for including Society, Ethics, and the Profession (SEP) In particular we will present and practice a variety of tested approaches for incorporating SEP considerations throughout the curriculum. These approaches include CSG-Ed, HFOSS, Embedded Ethics, and Responsible Computing.
