Hello World.
I'm the Electronics Engineering Technology Program coordinator and lead instructor at Mitchell Community College in Statesville, North Carolina. While recently surveying the local job market for students, I noticed a desired skill of Git Repositories. Figured it was time to take a deep dive and add it to my curriculum.

[MBrewerLHHS]

Hello,

I am a computer science teacher in a semi-rural area in Texas, USA. I got an educator account verified, but apparently didn't accept the invite to the github group before the invitation expired. I was hoping to find out how to contact the group owner to get another invite.

Hello Nikola, I need to skip an email in one case because I am working on an item that I have to do programming with Python where I want to receive an alarm via email. And you have installed your email or Gmail program, as soon as you enter that program for email or Gmail, now we call Gmail, we have nothing to do with email or it doesn't matter what we do, what programming or coding should I do instead of email. I will blind him so that he doesn't see my entry. Thank you for being kind and seeing the right thing. Can you help me in this field? Thank you. I am Yashar and I am now in Los Angeles and I am also an Iranian.

[tinxo]

Hi! My name is Martin / @tinxo, and I teach programming and software engineering topics in the Computer Science programs at the National University of Misiones (Argentina 🇦🇷).

I work with C#, Python, occasionally PHP, and Bash. We utilize GitHub for more than just code versioning; it's also instrumental in project management and automating processes for product deployment.

Receiving some swag for my students would be greatly appreciated as we are about to host a workshop on the basics of Git and GitHub.

Thanks!

[Maximvdw]

Hi! My name is Maxim (@Maximvdw) and I teach Computer Science at Vrije Universiteit Brussel for 5 years now. I give courses like Web Technologies and Next Generation User Interfaces. Officially using versioning control is not part of the curriculum and is considered a soft skill. However, I find it benefits both me and my students to let them use github to build up their portfolio and to work together with other group members. I highly recommend them to use github for group projects so we can more easily help them with questions/issues while simultaneously also improving group communication.

I help students use issue tracking, managing pull request and generally how they can contribute to OSS.

Receiving some swag for students is always welcome, even if its just to get students slightly motivated in joining these non-mandatory, but important exercises.

Cheers!

[carlostessier]

Hi!

My name is Carlos Tessier, and I am a vocational training teacher specializing in web development. My primary focus is on teaching students how to build and deploy modern, responsive, and functional websites using JavaScript and CSS.

In my classes, I aim to provide a practical and collaborative learning experience. To achieve this, I utilize GitHub Classroom as a key tool for project submissions and teamwork. Students work on group projects where they apply agile methodologies to collaboratively design, develop, and deploy the frontend of web applications. They showcase their work directly on GitHub Pages, giving them hands-on experience with industry-standard tools and workflows.

I also believe in keeping my students motivated and engaged. Providing stickers and Git manuals has been a great way to spark their interest in version control and help them learn how to manage repositories effectively. These small resources not only make the learning process more enjoyable but also provide them with a handy guide they can refer to while working on their projects.

My goal is to prepare my students for the real-world challenges of web development, equipping them with the technical skills, teamwork, and problem-solving abilities they’ll need in their careers.

[pmudry]

Hi dear colleagues !

My name is Pierre-André (@pmudry) and I'm the head of the Computer Science degree programme at the University of Applied Sciences Western Switzerland in Sion. I teach Imperative programming, Object-oriented programming as well as Functional programming.

In the curricula, versioning is gently introduced during the first year (only basic operations) and in the second year, a course called "Engineering in CS" has a more in-depth usage of Github (CI/CD, etc..). One of the main advantage of using github for the students is that it can be used afterwards as a display of what they did during their studies.

Receiving some swag for students is always welcome, so thank you in advance.

Pierre-André

[schluppeck]

Hi everyone,

I am Denis from the University of Nottingham. We have an MSc in Cognitive Neuroscience a which covers brain imaging and data analysis.

We teach students to use git/github for version control for their research projects (and wherever else they can 😀).

The swag is an excellent ice breaker and motivates the students...

[metc]

Hello from Switzerland,

My name is Christopher (@metc) and I teach embedded programming 🤖, computer science, and communication networks to bachelor's and master's students at HEI, a school of engineering in Sion, Switzerland.

My students are using GitHub daily to build their portfolios, collaborate, and work as a team on projects and labs. GitHub Classroom is a key tool that I use for all my classes to track progress using issues and pipeline (CI/CD) GitHub Actions. We also contribute to OSS, like the Zephyr RTOS on GitHub.

I would love to receive GitHub swag for my students. New stickers on laptops are always nice.

Thank you for supporting education.
