Here at ATX, we talked a lot about doing outreach demos. We were thinking of putting together a group of hacker recipes that wold be great fodder for that sort of thing. Anyone else on list interested? We have a segment of our wiki that has been growing slowly, but it could use more contributers :)<div>

Jerry pointed me towards this discussion after we met at Maker Faire <br>in San Mateo. I wanted simply to let you guys know about our free <br>teacher supportive materials that we will soon be offering to everyone <br>on <a href="http://SparkFun.com/" target="_blank">SparkFun.com</a>. We already have lots of tutorials and what not but we <br>
are also developing materials to help educators do their job with <br>technology they may not have deal with before. Basically trying to <br>support all you educators out there. Our Department of Education at <br>SparkFun is fairly small and new, but we've got big aspirations. The <br>
exciting part is that we offer all the educational materials for free. <br>This should interest all you homeschoolers. To sign up for our <br>Newsletter go to <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=www.learn.sparkfun.com" style="color:rgb(0, 0, 204)" target="_blank">learn.sparkfun.com</a>. Or watch the website and we <br>
will let you know where you can get those materials the second they <br>are official. Here's hoping that hackerspaces can become a larger part <br>of the education system. </span></div><div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://groups.google.com/group/openmanufacturing/browse_thread/thread/c1134891a86d47b5" target="_blank">http://groups.google.com/group/openmanufacturing/browse_thread/thread/c1134891a86d47b5</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>The <a href="http://learn.sparkfun.com/" target="_blank">learn.sparkfun.com</a> site is currently just a signup page but the materials Spark Fun is developing look interesting (i got a sneak peek). Most deal with the Spark Fun Inventor Kit (SIK), which is an arduino based collection of parts.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Glad to see a vendor making a sincere effort to promote education.</div><div>Spark Fun also has some decent discount options for hackerspaces and educators.</div><div class="im"><div><br></div><div>
