Teacher Training Business Model

Intro

OSE can collaborate with interested teachers to move the work of OSE forward. Experimental methods can be applied to provide meaningful and publishable results. If we coordinate around RepRap, Universal Axis, Arduino, FreeCAD, KiCAD, and other open source tool chains, we can develop useful research data and products. Because the goal is producing practical tools for ending Artificial Scarcity, practical products can emerge from this process.

One avenue to this is creating OSE curriculum for Project Based Learning.

Revenue Model

1. Kits + curriculum as a basic package for most teachers
2. Teachers can be included in OSE's training strategy to bring meaningful project-based learning to the classroom. As such, Professional Development should be included for those teachers who are considering deeper involvement in OSE work, but not necessarily starting OSE Clubs - which takes larger commitment of 3 more hours per week.
3. The deepest involvement is starting an OSE Club - specifically focused on Ending Artificial Scarcity and Protecting the Environment -> Open Source Economy -> Relocalized Production -> STEM Education that Matters
