<html><div>Barb- I thought I sent the Presentations Committee a message saying Ivan could do the Feb. meeting for us on Coding, and sent him the message below.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>In my message to Presentations, I also listed some topics on coding (see message to Ivan) and asked for input on whether they liked the list or had other topics they'd like covered.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The only reply I got from Presentation was from Mike Hancock, who said he was especially interested in how the coding class material was applied (used).<br><br>---------- Forwarded Message ----------<br>From: "bcbloch@juno.com" <bcbloch@juno.com><br>To: isilva@bel-tib-lib.org<br>Subject: February GGCS General Meeting<br>Date: Tue, 17 Jan 2017 20:19:03 GMT<br><br></p>

<div>Ivan...Presentations Committee would be delighted to have you come for the February 27th General Meeting (dinner with us beforehand) and talk about Coding.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I sent the Committee the suggested topics to cover and asked for their input. So far only 1 reply, who was especially interested in how they apply the things they learn.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Feel free to let me know what you would or would not like to cover and any other topics you would like to add.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>It'll be great to have you with us again.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Also, Kathy Hunsicker said something about the Library's having a Children's librarian who organizes the Teen Program. Is it correct that she runs or started a Coding for Girls program there? Do you want to have her come too? No pressure to do so, just wondering.</div>

<div><strong>Topics on Coding I thought of:</strong></div>
<ul>
<li><strong>What are the kids learning in all these "coding" classes and programs</strong></li>
<li><strong>What should adults know about coding to understand it.- are there classes or resources for adult to learn something about coding? (Ivan has already told me he could cover this one).</strong></li>
<li><strong>How can you apply what you learn in a coding class</strong></li>
<li><strong>Is coding the same as programming</strong></li>
<li><strong>WHAT DO YOU WANT HIM TO COVER AND SHOULD WE IGNORE ANY OF THE ABOVE?</strong></li>
</ul>
