Dear Rubyists in Berlin,
OpenTechSchool Berlin
(
http://www.opentechschool.org) has been running Co-Learning groups for
Python and front-end technologies (JS, HTML5) for a while now - see our
events page on
meetup.com:
http://www.meetup.com/opentechschool-berlin/.
We're also getting interest for a similar format for learning
Ruby (and Rails). The Co-Learning format is roughly this: One evening
every two weeks (within the week) where people of varying experience
levels code together. People would bring their current projects and
questions, and we'd work on them together.
The format is
different from Rug::B Usergroups (as those have evolved into veritable
mini-conferences by now, woop woop!), as it's focused on learning and
not so much on talks. It's also different from the RailsGirls Project
Groups, in that this is an open meet-up that anyone can come to without
having to be part of a group.
We're not entirely done organizing
- there's no dates set as of yet, and we haven't looked into rooms
either. However, don't get frantic, I think we'll have something
organised by next week. If some of you would like to come along, you'd
of course be more than welcome.
I'd also be very happy to share this as a lightning talk (< 3 minutes) at Rug::B next week if there's still a slot.
The
discussion is happening on
this thread thread on
discourse.opentechschool.org. If you'd like to participate in some way,
you're of course welcome.
Best,
Martin
