Thanks @pgreen. We’re going to walk with Rural UP, as well as design some courses for the Holler, about a summer program and some programming bootcamps that use the Holler to sustain long term collaboration and learning.

I teach computer science and my students have just started learning html.

@joyneace That’s great! What types of projects will they build? We could feature some of their work on the Holler, or throw out some coding challenges once they are far enough along.

That’s great! We should do a profile on your class for the Holler!

Learn to Code! If you know of any middle and high school students in the Pikeville area who would like to participate, they can contact these folks.

“What if Kentucky was the hot-bed for computer programming?”
So… how do we get this snowball rolling down the hill? — What can the ARI team do to help? — @professorparsons I think this is exactly the direction we need to go. I love the conversation…
