	Each instructor is required to prepare curriculum to contribute to the overall program, and to coordinate with other instructors and to learn their curriculum. Prototyping of parts will be required, as the curriculum centers around practical skills and builds. We are aiming for 6-12 instructors per event. Event happens with each instructor in a different urban location, and we all run the events on the same day. Part of the events involves remote collaboration - so each of the instructors will broadcast to the entire 6-12 groups for their part of the project. This takes the load off the instructors, and shows the collaborative spirit. However, each instructor is expected to be sufficiently knowledgeable about the subject matter that they can take over teaching in case of internet failure. Each instructor will guide their local team on the actual hands-on part. There will be 12-24 participants per each location. The typical preparation schedule may be like this once 6-12 instructors are identified:		See [[STEAM Camp Preparation]]
	#'''Week 0: Team Formation'''. We identify and recruit all potential instructors. We divide development tasks accordingly - based on the strengths of instructors - to break up and develop the curriculum to the needed state. Note that this becomes possible only when (1) the instructors bring sufficient expertise to the table, (2) there is sufficient open source prior art available, and (3), instructors have rapid learning capacity to pick up on others' curriculum in order to teach it well.
	~~#'''Week 1-4: Curriculum Prep.''' Preparing curriculum on one of the topics - see~~ [[STEAM Camp ~~Curriculum~~]]. All the Instructors work on their aspect of the curriculum, once a role breakdown for the 6-12 instrucors has been identified. Prototypes are part of curriculum preparation. Note that for the first event, preparation is most difficult - but with every STEAM Camp - the process gets easier as all products get more refined with time. (about 20 hours)
	~~#'''Kickoff Meeting''' - With the Team formed and curriculum prepared - we all participate in a Kickoff Meeting. Each person has 5 minutes to present their contribution and prototype.~~
	#'''Week 4-8: Curriculum Refinement''' - Following the individual development of modules, we collaborate on refining the curriculum. Since this curriculum will be taught by all instructors, the material needs to be adapted to the needs of all instructors. We join one or more coordinating conference calls as needed. Using open documents, all of us assimilate the curriculum to out own needs. We end up with one Master Copy for each module, which is open source and available to the public as part of our edumarketing effort. (About 10 hours)
	#'''End of Week 8: Curriculum Submission''' - By this time, each instructor must have finalized and refined their contribution to a point that it is presentable within the time budget of the 9 day STEAM Camp. Each Instructor needs to ship their working prototype AND full BOM incuding STL files for printing to OSE at this time for quality control. OSE will evaluate the submitted build, and replicate the build from the BOM. Once approved for effectiveness and efficiency of build - with any modifications - OSE will ship samples of all kits to all instructors. Curriculum is frozen, with only minor revisions allowed. Week 6 is critical: if the submissions are incomplete or inadequate, the event must be postponed accordingly. We do not want to run an event that does not meet quality standards for a program as described in the Event Curriculum. We must agree as a group that content is adequate. If there are objections, they must be resolved
	#'''Week 9-12''' - Instructors practice kit builds and their presentations. OSE prepares kit shipments, to be shipped 10 days ahead of time. Last minute registration opens 5 days before event, with express ship of any additional kits.

			*'''Aren't you reinventing the wheel? I feel that a lot of the implementation is going to be unnecessary re-hashing of products. Thingiverse, online forums, Instructables, and YouTube etc. are good sources of open sharing of designs and ideas already established.''' While there are numerous examples of open sharing, few except for very rare exceptions are in a refined form ready for practical use. They are by far experimental or incomplete, or doable only by extremely savvy creators. And ones that are actually complete - are typically not shared. To the casual observer, it seems that you can build anything from online resources and it will work. But in truth, that typically doesn't happen without requiring a heroic effort. When you try to do it, you typically see the gaps and incompleteness. This is exactly what we are trying to address - by improving the products with replicable, open source production engineering and distributed quality control. We want average people to be able to access real production. This also applies to our own designs - we simply need to keep refining to the point of easy replication. This makes the difference between hobby products - and ones that can actually have an economic impact and change peoples' lives in such tangible, material ways. Our goal is to break through this veil to create the next industrial revolution, because that revolution is much delayed. People have theorized since 2005 that production will become personal. This hasn't happened, and what is available today is a good seed, but it needs a lot of TLC before its consumable by a larger portion of the public. Without going through this due diligence, many people will continue to waste millions of collective hours wading through unrefined information. Our goal is to make those refinements so that the Open Source Microfactory is a viable way to make a living for a significant fraction of the population.

	I'd like to ask if you'd be interested in collaborating with us and serving as an instructor our 9 day Open Source Microfactory STEAM Camp in your local area. We all collaborate on developing the curriculum, and as an instructor, you'd be responsible for generating a small part of the curriculum, while learning from the other instructors to present theirs. We run a number of events in different cities at the same time. We can offer between $5-8k for running the STEAM Camp if there is a good fit. We teach collaborative design of technology that matters. Our proposed curriculum is this - https://wiki.opensourceecology.org/wiki/STEAM_Camp_Curriculum .

The idea is: we get a group of supercooperators to develop amazing curriculum. Goals are to develop a mechanism for scalable and sustainable open source product development.

	Please let me know if you are interested in this so we can set up a call to discuss further. If this is not compelling to you, I'd be interested in hearing your feedback, and suggestions if you know someone else who may be a good fit.
