[General] Fwd: [freeside] [Dragon*Con 2012][Science Track] Anyone want to give a talk or two?

I'll be at Dragon*Con this year as well. I'd love to participate in a panel
discussion. I think it might work really well if we did one together about
our Makerspace and the maker movement. Or giant spider robots. You know,
whatever.

> 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

> To give you an example, I taught a course entitled Ecology of the Body, a

> 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.
