I spent a good chunk of the day writing a syllabus for a hypothetical class that I would like to teach some day instead of grading quizzes for the actual current class that I'm a reader/grader for. Sigh.

On the up side, I've got a full syllabus drawn up for a course on digital humanities (extendabe into digital projects in other fields too) that teaches Racket and Scribble, the command line, version control, and licensing to non programmers & culminating in creating their own digital projects

I wanna take your class!

And I also wanna help teach it.

@JimG We just need to find a university to hire us to teach it ;)

@mlemweb @JimG
Have you considered teaching it online? Through Harvard Extension or a writing workshop like Grub St. in Boston?

@Betsy24 @JimG We've considered filming the workshop length tutorials and posting them online. To teach it online we'd still need a university to go through. While we've gotten positive responses to our workshop, I'm afraid that the audience for workshops wouldn't stick it out for a 10 week course. I'm just starting on this though, so we'll see where it takes me :)
