I wanted to draw everyone's attention to the upcoming Python Education Summit proposal cutoff date. This event happens the day before PyCon, and this will be our 7th year. Deadline to submit a poposal aligns with PyCan itself, which is Jan 3 AOE.
We have a new track this year, called the mini-sprints. These are submitted as proposals just so we have a chance to help the proposer craft something awesome and can check that it is meeting the OER and educational mission guidelines. You can read about the summit here: https://us.pycon.org/2019/events/edusummit/
I'm submitting this issue because I would love to have us submit a few of these minisprint proposals to help work on the book's content. The sprinters will be made up of summit audience members and are happening during the summit on that Thursday, not part of the regular sprinting days after the conference. This will be a room full of Python educators. Many will have Jupyter experience, but some will be new to it. This could be a great opportunity to add some fresh eyes and voices to the book's content.
There would be room for several proposals based on this book's project. Imagine work that would be done in small groups of 2-5 people in about 2 hours. So proofing, testing, adding content, github wrangling, etc.
We are also accepting talk proposals around the education mission, and I would love to see a talk proposal about this project! Also, if you are attending PyCon, we would love to have you as part of the summit audience.
So, who might be interested in:
submitting a talk proposal about the book
submitting a mini-sprint proposal for work on the book
putting together some tasks for a mini sprint that someone else attending could sponsor and run
I'm happy to submit one, but would love to have others also submit. The deadline is Jan 3. I can also help people craft these proposals, if you're willing to submit and attend but need some help putting together what might be done. I believe there should also be room to have remote participation for the sprints (less so for a sprint leader).
