STEAM Camps Review

Suggestions

1. Refine and polish curriculum completely to about 16 one hour lessons with detaled, full curriculum.
2. Before/During/After Unit:
   1. Before: go over all the lessons, so you're practicing during Camp, not seeing material for the first time.
   2. During: Focus on collaborative teaching to make life easy for instructors, all 12 in same or near time zone. Or otherwise work out the collaborative teaching aspect.
   3. After: Incentive Challenge, and 1 hour Design Sprint every Saturday, with 1 hour prep beforehand.
3. Do only 9 day events; other programs could exist, but that is not the STEAM Camp
4. Define clear Product to be developed within the 5 Dev Days, with 144+ people
5. Secure enough Instructors so each prepares a 1 hour lesson. Rationale: the curriculum needs to be refined, and is a full time effort for ~4 people until the curriculum is done. Part time development with about 16 instructors would solve this.
6. Promise clarity on the next event: organizing 12x12 with $72k theoretical budget
   1. $80 COCA for $12k advertising costs
   2. $12k at $4k/month to an Event Planner
   3. $25k allocated to an Incentive Challenge for Product
   4. $23k allocated to OSE infrastructure development (physical and virtual) to get all requisite tools in place.
7. Divide up 16 lessons between future participants for
8. New rules: camp does not run if there are not 12 people signed up for each location. This means marketing must be vetted and effective. COCA+ plan is activated
