teaching Eu to students on a formal basis

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message

Sorry to everyone that I haven't joined in much of the discourse at the
Forum here, but I have been very busy with other parts of my life that once
in a while require attention.  But I do read the new entries at least two
or three times a day.

I happen to live in British Columbia Canada, up the Coast a ways from
Vancouver.  The primary means of making a livelihood here have always been
centred around Fishing (salmon) and Falling (big trees).  Well, all of that
has come under hard times, and the Computer Age is hitting into here in a
very big way.

I teach part-time computing here by running a municipality-funded Cyber
Cafe and have just begun to work small hours in a new programme which is
designed to give support to all of those who never learned how to use a
computer in the past, never wanted to, or can't read or write, whatever.
The problem is that there is now NO computer literate teachers at our only
high school (the last one packed up and went to Alberta), and the kids
attending there are going to be screwed when it comes time to get a job or
go on to college or university.  Incredible but true!

I have been asked to try and help fill in some of the gaps in the
situation, and I would like to set up a course using Euphoria as its basis,
due to its ease of use and learning.  But is there anyone out there who has
done a course or would like to give me some concrete feed-back and ideas
how to make such a thing successful.  I am willing to share my experiences
with others about all of this.  How about you?

Thanks in advance,
Norm
