Collaboration between Skullspace and the Winnipeg Public Library to bring programming to youth.

What defines a good project

  • good chance of success
  • a physical thing for kids to take home
  • affordable
    • does the library have a budget to help, or a limit in what participants would pay for parts?
  • skills and tools are accessible
    • is soldering an option, eg irons available and considered safe enough?

Project options

conductive dough

someone mentioned conductive dough; I am not sure how that would be used, can someone fill in details?

kit based projects

Could order several or one kit and help/supervise assembly; kids would take home finished product and information on how to get more. Maybe adafruit would discount for this?

Library partnership update (Jay): Partnership with the library is progressing. They would like us to work on programming that can be delivered to youth. This is an important outreach opportunity. If anyone is interested in participating, please contact Jay. Jay will be meeting with library on Friday to review potential project options.
