[UWAB] Professor Invitations and Set-Up Tonight
by Jennifer Whitlow 11 Apr '07

11 Apr '07

Hey girls! So I havn't heard from many of you about whether or not the professors you asked to help with CoCaesar's said yes or no and what times they are available. Please email me tonight so that I can start organizing the list. Also, don't forget we are going to start decorating and setting up tonight. If it's raining we will start blowing up balloons, decorating third floor Klaus, hanging stuff that can get wet outside, organizing chips into cups, and just getting everything ready to go tomorrow. We will also be setting up tomorrow morning before the event to get tables up, games out, and whatever decorations that don't get hung tonight put up tomorrow. So hope to see you all at 8:00 tonight. I will be there at 6:30 to start, if you want to come earlier than 8:00. Jennifer -- Jennifer Whitlow Computational Media Georgia Institute of Technology gtg160x(a)mail.gatech.edu

[UWAB] Summer Jobs for Undergraduate CS and CM majors:
by Jennifer Whitlow 10 Apr '07

10 Apr '07

Summer Jobs for Undergraduate CS and CM majors: We are looking for outgoing and responsible undergraduate students in good academic standing to help with our summer workshops and camps. We offer workshops for high school teachers and train them about computing using Alice, free software from CMU that can be used to create 3D movies and games, and Media Computation, which was developed by Dr. Mark Guzdial at Georgia Tech and is used in 1315 and 1316. With media computation we teach computing concepts by writing programs that manipulate media such as negating an image and reversing a sound. We also run summer camps for middle and high school students. We use PicoCricket kits which are arts and crafts kits for the digital age. With the Cricket kits kids can create a musical pickle or a stuffed animal that can react to petting. We use Scratch which is free software from MIT that can be used to create 2D animations and games. We use LEGO Mindstorms NXT robots and have kids build robots and program them for several different tasks. We also use Alice and Media Computation. We will have 2 information meetings this week. One on Wed April 11th and one on Thurs April 12 both from 3pm - 4pm. These will be in room 109 of the College of Computing building. If you are interested but can't make either meeting contact Felicia Auzla fauzla(a)cc.gatech.edu. Thank You, Barb Ericson Director, CS Outreach College of Computing Georgia Tech ----- End forwarded message -----
