Greetings, everyone!
Hope you are all having a good summer.
Lauren gave me this analogy the other day: for a teacher, the summer is just a like a weekend. June is like Friday night. July is Saturday. August is Sunday. I'm sure none of you needs an explanation for that rhythm and the mental state that accompanies the trajectory of the weekend.
So, our first meeting of the 2011-12 academic year is this Saturday, August 20. As usual, it will be at 1:00 pm in the 6th floor conference room of the Paul Allen Center (CSE Building) on the UW's Seattle campus. Thanks as always to the CSE department for hosting and sponsoring us.
We have just one item on the schedule for this meeting -- to map out the schedule of meetings and topics for the coming year. The dates of our meetings are set; now we just need to decide what we'll do at each one.
We hope to see everyone Saturday for a good planning session. Bring your ideas, opinions, and desires for the CSTA sessions ahead. If you can't make it, but have any of those, feel free to post them to the group, or in the comments on this post on the blog, or email me.
In addition to content ideas, if you have opinions about the logistics, please let us know also. In particular, if you don't regularly come to the meetings but would like to, what would make you more likely to do so?
Thanks,
See you Saturday.
