[UWAB] Jobs for the Fall
Dear Students, We are looking for responsible, energetic, and friendly computing students who can help us introduce girls/women to computing using robots, arts and crafts for the digital age, and animation. We work with both the girl scouts on the weekends and with the YWCA Teen Girls in Technology program at 3 area middle schools twice a week after school. We also need people to reset kits that we lend out to area schools (we have 20 LEGO NXT and 30 PicoCrickets). For a list of dates we will be working with the girl scouts see http://coweb.cc.gatech.edu/ice-gt/488. Some of the events are at girl scout locations and some are at Georgia Tech. Students do not need to work every event! We are busiest in Sept and Oct and then have about 1 workshop per month after that. We will always have a team of at least 2 people at each event. We will pay for your time to get trained on the hardware and software and travel expenses. For the YWCA program we need people that can work Tues and Thurs or Tues and Wed from 4-6pm (not including travel time of about 30 min). We are introducing the girls to computing using PICO Crickets (see http://www.picocricket.com/), LEGO Mindstorms robots (see http://mindstorms.lego.com/), Alice (see http://www.alice.org) and Scratch (see http://scratch.mit.edu/). We will pay for the time it takes you to learn these kits and software, prepare materials to use with the girls, travel to the schools, and time while working with the girls. We are sending teams of 2 students to each school. The schools are: Shamrock Middle School, 3100 Mount Olive Drive, Decatur, Georgia 30033 (up I-85 North from Tech about 12 miles) Ralph Bunche Middle School, 1925 Niskey Lake Road, S.W. Atlanta, GA 30331 (I-75/I-85 South from Tech about 16 miles) Chapel Hill Middle School, 3535 Dogwood Farm Road, Decatur, Georgia 30034 (20 East to Candler Rd, right on Candler Rd go 4.6 miles, Right on Dogwood Farm about 17 miles total from Tech). You must be in good academic standing. We pay an average of $12.00 an hour. If you are interested please send Felicia Auzla fauzla@cc.gatech.edu a resume and at least one reference. If you would like more information please come to an information meeting on Friday July 20th or Tues July 24. Send e-mail to Felicia Auzla to get the time and place. Thank You, Barb Ericson Director, CS Outreach College of Computing Georgia Tech
