Projects
We started with two community projects. Both projects is in the first cycle to see if we can achieve some success. We learn as we go along and we publish our lessons and training material to the world. We hope to change the world with free training.
Robotics Course
We designed this course mainly for children. I got a group of youngsters to teach and write my course material after I had a session with them. The focus on this course is to get parents to teach their children about robotics, to prepare the parent and the child for the future or the fourth industrial revolution. I got sick and tired of what was presented as educational programs whitch, at the end of the day, only taught the child to read a drawing and to assemble something. They never had the insight to teach the child the idea of designing something and were never presented with manufacturing, or design challenges. We hope to make it interesting while learning and in the process to transfer some basic skills to work with tools.
Programming Course
We need programmers Therefore, we designed a course to train programmers. Our hope is to give students with no opportunity an opportunity. The cost of learning is excessive at tertiary institutions and rob students of the opportunity to learn. This course is to study from home, free of charge except costs for some resources like a computer and internet connectivity. We found that a lot of students do formal training at a huge cost, but as soon as they enter the workspace they discover that they are not really programmers. The life style and to work in solidarity do not really fit there personality and they are forced to make a career change. We would like to train programmers with code, rather than with lecturers and text books. The challenge is to present students with programing challenges and responsibilities as early as possible, and sometimes the need to isolate them self to battle a problem until a solution is found. Study from home is probably nearer to a real-world work environment for a programmer than a collage or university. The best programmers I know never completed a formal educational course. This tells me we must change our ideas about training good programmers. Let us see if we have can achieve success, and give unfortunate students an opportunity.
