Hi Stephan, and welcome John, In the same line of teaching with Pharo, the last week we had our second edition of the data week, an intensive workshop on data visualization using pharo. This was a pretty small group, of max 6 people, but is nice to see how pharo can serve well different communities and approaches of learning. We updated our Grafoscopio tutorial and now includes the adaptation of prof stef and now we're creating our first lessons on data scrapping. Here is a screenshot, and at [1] you can get the last version, to open it as a grafoscopio interactive document. [1] http://mutabit.com/repos.fossil/grafoscopio/finfo?name=Docs/Es/Tutoriales/tu...

Hi guys
I want to let you know that there will be a new pharo lecture in Yaoundé. I presented Pharo during a seminar and the previous minister of education was there and asked us to do a lecture. In June we did it with Damien C. by skype. And now there is an official lecture at Yaoundé given by Prof. Metalagia. This is an excellent news. I will give some lectures in december there.
In Togo my first visit was quite successful: 120 participants to the conferences I gave (it was still vacation time there). There were 60 students following lectures from 8h to 17h during 4 days... Yes I'm exhausted ;) A new Pharo lecture will start in north Togo. I will go back in December.
One of the idea is to help students to get good in Pharo and pharo web stack and build web apps and other. I hope that we can have within 2/3 year There is a competition AppTogo. People are learning C# and others. I hope that some students will compete with Pharo so I will be looking for potential mentors to help them. Giving them advices, pointing them to the right solution/framework and may be a bit of pair rogramming if skype works.
I distributed the Pharo Starter Kit (we will announce it officially now that I have 10 gb space on my server) People love the Youtube videos folder I'm collecting. Yes internet is a pain there. Chloupis I put your great youtube tutorial! Thanks for it. some students watched it.
Stef
