PSF Education Work Group
Aims:
The PSF Education Working Group takes global, inclusive, and practical steps to promote education and learning with Python.
By asking what sort of education and learning our community supports, the working group guides decisions that set what sort of community we become. It is through education and learning that we engage with our future colleagues, friends, users, and supporters.
Strategic Goal:
Education and learning are core pillars of the PSF's mission. As a working group, we seek to guide the strategy to fulfill the PSF's mission to publicize, promote the adoption of, and facilitate the ongoing development of Python-related technology and educational resources.
Working group operation and scope:
As a working group we make things happen. We do this in three ways:
- We're a meeting point for people who want to make practical contributions to Python in education.
- We identify and coordinate projects that deliver specific and measurable results that support our aims.
- We support and facilitate such projects so they have the best chance of meeting their goals.
Current projects for the group:
These include, but are not limited to:
- Education friendly editor (IDLE)
- Lessons and resources
- A way to communicate, coordinate, and facilitate the educational events that are happening around the world.
