Hi All

Wow, I can't believe it but we're planning two of our most popular classes back to back over the next couple of weeks!

Next Saturday at the SFS HQ, we'll be hosting the SFS Method. If you ever wanted to teach something to a coworker, or a group of coworkers, the SFS method is a fantastic way to approach it. Details are below [1], please bring a note/sketchbook and a couple difference colored pens or pencils

Then on November 5th, Mike Shoup's incredibly popular OwnCloud class will be hosted at the Englewood public library. If you haven't heard of owncloud, think of dropbox only more secure! Details for this class are also below [2] please bring a laptop capable of running VM's.

I really hope to see you all at both of these amazing classes.

Instructor: David Willson 
Date: 2016-10-15 
Time: 11:00am – 3:00pm 
Location: SFS HQ – The Comfy Couch 
Donation: $16

David L. Willson will be teaching the SFS Method, a simple framework for the design and delivery of technical classes. SFS Method was created with two people in mind, the student suffering through long, boring lectures, and the passionate subject-matter expert (SME) who would like to share his/her knowledge (ie: be a teacher). Few teachers want to cause students to suffer, and most students would rather learn the subject-matter without unnecessary misery.

We’ll talk about and practice the SFS Method. We’ll critique it, and if possible, we’ll make it better.

If you are a lifelong learner, a SME, or an educator … I hope you are all those things … if you’d like to explore what make some classes both fun and effective … and especially if you’d like to teach for SFS, please join us for a four-hour foray into the how-to of a good how-to class.
