Outreach Ideas

http://csi.dcs.gla.ac.uk/index.php: “An online resource to bring Computing Science alive.” Developed by Quentin Cutts, who has visited Purdue in the past. Hosts workshops for teachers and activities for students. Example include file compression and predictive text typing (e.g., on a cell phone).

Consider buying in to the Science Express van fleet. Could deliver laptops for K-12 presentations. Could deliver cluster rack for science experiments (teacher workshop during summer, then loan of 1-2 weeks during year).

Tap in to the Honeywell FMA Live program somehow. Email from Lori DelGiudice, 4/5/07.

Look for ideas at the University of Washington CS 4 HS program that is similar to our Linking Workshop.
