There are a number of people and companies in Portland who are building textbook applications, teaching tools and other mobile resources, and there is even more of an interest. In August 2010, Mobile Portland's Mobile in Education event drew almost 100 people http://mobileportland.com/recaps/mobile-education-recap.
In partnership with the City of Portland, Webvisions and the Mayor's Office, we're honored to announce a hackathon dedicated exclusively to making mobile applications for education. There will be time in the morning for ideas and presentations from educators involved with the city, and brainstorming sessions and hacking in the afternoon.
Mobile developers, graphic and UX designers, educators and students are very welcome. Teams will have a chance to present their projects at 8Pm and will be judged by members of the City of Portland, Education District and local tech leaders. The three top projects will be automatically entered into the Webvisionary Awards in the Mobile Category.
CivicApps will be kindly sponsoring lunch, and we are looking for sponsors for breakfast and dinner. Please contact @caseorganic if you're interested in sponsoring. Come change the future of education! |
