Oct. 15, 2009 Fall OCCC Meeting
Present at the meeting
Jim Baily, Jay Bockelman, Mitch Fry, Colin Goble, Molly Shore, Brian York
Initial discussion of potential for ATE Center Grant
An informal discussion was held at the end of the Fall OCCC meeting for all of those who were interested in looking at grant funding to support the development of Game curriculum. The discussion started with Bryant York giving a presentation on NSF organizational structure and potential direction of grant programs. The discussion evolved into a discussion of the more general goal of improving CS/Engineering pathway education (which is the primary point of the gaming classes). A follow up meeting was scheduled for Nov. 7 at Chemeketa CC.
Here are Molly's notes from the Oct. 15, 2009 OCCC meeting:
