in terms of biggin-up the hackspace, it would probably be sensible for us to add we have members who know about education / child development / classroom environment /etc. | |||
Is any of our members a teacher? | |||
I have some relevant experience myself: I've worked in educational software, design and build of games to match against specific educational targets in the uk national curriculum. I've also been a volunteer youth leader (Scouts) for the past 6 years - I know Spike is an ex-Scout leader too. Anyway, if people feel this is relevant then feel free to write it into the draft. | |||

*Do you mean lego? I think something between Lego mindstorms and PICAXE/Arduino, as I know at my school (and the Young hackspace kids) love to get the mindstorms out - but the PICAXE programming overwhelms them slightly (maybe due to bad teaching?), so school doesn't use them a lot. Maybe making it inter-operable with lego pieces? I know there is a guy at the hackspace trying to reverse engineer them, and the modular-ness is great. (MonkeyJam) | *Do you mean lego?
