Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

eHacks, regardless of where we go in the future, will always focus on education. Every year, we brainstorm through dozens of workshops to offer students on a wide breadth of topics from UI design, to programming, to making a business plan.

In this project, you will work with a team to create workshop materials, complete with an instructor's guide, to be added to our workshop collection. Our goal is to create a library of workshop resources which can be delivered by eHacks across many different venues.

What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

Students will need to 1) select a topic they would like to teach that is related to our overall mission, 2) conduct research on the topic, 3) scope out a curriculum for a 1-1.5 hour workshop, including an interactive project component (if appropriate), 4) create workshop materials (including a slide deck and teaching doc)

How will you support learners in completing the project?

eHacks will meet with students at least weekly, for an hour, to answer questions and track progress. eHacks will provide students access to eHacks' Google Workspace accounts, which has our past workshops since our first event. Students will be expected to keep these files confidential.
