>> Sorry to blast this, but thought you guys would be perfect for teaching
>> something for LearningQUEST.  LQ is a local organization that provides
>> free
>> or nearly free courses to their members and the public in a myriad of
>> subjects.  They would like to beef up their science and engineering
>> offerings to attract more people, so naturally I thought of ya'll.  They
>> are beginning to approve and put together their Winter/Spring catalog and
>> are looking for people willing to teach (strictly volunteer).  They are
>> currently taking proposals and I have attached two blank proposal forms as
>> well as the guidelines; (1) course and (2) Lunch and Learn.
>>
>> The two categories for teaching are courses (choose the number of days,
>> day
>> of the week and time) or Lunch and Learn (held 11:45-1 at the main
>> library,
>> choose the number of days and day of the week).
>>
>> The topic can be just about anything.  You can choose to have
>> prerequisites, require or recommend materials or texts and indicate a
>> minimum and maximum of students.  If the topic is something that is
>> hands-on, you can also request to hold the class at another location.
>>
>> To give you an example, I taught a course entitled Ecology of the Body, a
>> course covering very basic ecological and ecosystem principles, the body
>> as
>> a series of ecosystems, the microorganisms inhabiting each ecosystem and
>> the interaction between the ecosystem (e.g. stomach) and the community
>> present.  We met over 4 course periods in April of 2012.  The course had
>> approximately 25 students, primarily retired folks who were incredibly
>> engaged.  I will probably teach it again next year.
>>
>> If you are interested, please contact Cheryl Patterson at
>> drpatter at hiwaay.net.  You can either send a proposal or talk to her about
>> topics you are thinking about and she can help you craft it to fit with
>> the
>> audience.  Or shoot me an email to get more info.
>>
>> I hope someone from Makers is interested!
