 Clubs remain a good topic. Coordination is to be resolved, so that all Clubs collaborate. Ideally, we are spinning off enterprises, such as production of 3D printers, parts, kits.

			'''Progress Report'''. To date, [[Dirk Log]] has build and run an OSE-inspired axial flux motor, and has built the D3D 3D printer in the Netherlands. [[William Log]] has built the D3D Pro as well when I was invited to London International Academy in London, Ontario. Currently there is forward motion in the USA on starting a Club in a technical school.

:-) No not really , just added you in a loop so that you know that old OSE True fan is searching an entrance hole in the Dutch=NL Edu system.
Little backup story ... I thought about it this summer after some crisis at my work place (cancer institute) , a job in Edu system & uplifting youth make sense to me much more than prostituting hands / brain for $$ . Later I learned Dutch system is in acute need for High-school teachers Beta subjects ... so 1+1 was clear sign for me , I resigned from science around the end of 2018 , this month my notice term ended, now I have some freedom to search fro new Edu job ( till September/ new school year) ... was happy to see your Newsletter about OSE Clubs few months ago when i directly contacted William, Nice synchrony.

Before i continue with my reply/comments please check this recent 3min video from big think channel :
https://bigthink.com/Lumina-Foundation/lumina-prize
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G4UirLEq4go
you seem to be the Entrepreneur man for new prize ... i just read, 1 more day to apply !?!

Please tell me more Branko about what you see as the limits of O&O - or how we can engage teachers.
Current O & O is not super bad but is not useful & practical as OSE. I see what my daughter does for O & O : research some topic make video & PPT , very little practical stuff ...
To engage ... I will search for technasium network/ O&O network but i think Dirk knows more , also mr.Maco the teacher i have as a contact knows it all.
At the end Teachers need to be enthusiastic & willing to learn basic OSE Curriculum and start experimenting /piloting .
As far as i know O&O is only in Technasium High schools, but i think it is very important to check NON-Technasium schools as well. For example I heard from this teacher that there is a rule in NL that every NL region/province can have only 1 technasium. But, other schools in the same region do not want to loose new beta/tech students and are inventing other programs that include BETA / Tech .... I'm researching this last 1-2 months I assume Dirk knows the system better .
I will meet with Dirk today to hear his opinion & status. Dirk i would need some tips & strategy in approaching the schools for a job , my personal aim for employment was to either :
E1) Enter some school in September as a teacher of Physiscs / Math / Informatics/ ... or whatever Beta they have and from there open new pilot subject.
E2) Or, Direct (not sneaking approach ) Search for schools that experiment with EDU methods and start ASAP to presenting them OSE clubs idea .. hopefully they would be wiling to take me as a teacher for that club...

Oh i think important ... I asked William for some promo material and he told me they are already in process of making some. Like Powerpoint or Maybe short 5min video about how OSE.Club@school could work so i can show it to more receptive /experimental school .
Or maybe you Marcin can make one ?

I am ready to provide a wide range of curriculum projects, where we can basically gather data and make small incremental improvements and arrive at useful technology
Great, i was thinking like once some receptive school is found (by Dirk or me ) , we show some promo material/video and if they are willing , we could invite you or William for remote chat with school.

I have a lot of practical projects in mind of how we blend real industry with school learning.
I'm sure in that :) I'm interested in PBL -Project base learning method , that makes most sense if filled with Project around OSE tech + Food (Aquaponics+ Plants +permaculture) ... and I know some schools are experimenting with PBL , just need to find them , they are likely not Technasium that uses O & O ).

Thus, what would be our next steps for inserting OSE into dutch O&O?
So Me & Dirk will inform you ASAP what we discuss today and then we can hear what you & William advise. I will also chat with O&O teacher again in March after i apply in that school (E1 method above) ...
New year is in September so there should be enough time to get one school on board.

That appears to be a clear avenue in the Netherlands,
Also I think Colleges and Univ. Bachelor programs should be relevant and likely more OSE useful, think about minor/major projects for their degrees ... (there are several tech colleges and at least 3 Tech univeristies in NL ).

which makes me think that other countries may have similar programs.
I could check 6 countries of former Yugoslavia, but you could contact old list of people from OSE-Europe: https://wiki.opensourceecology.org/wiki/OSE_Europe/People
and/or make fresh newsletter :-)

Keep in touch,
