==== Teaching BSD Working Group ====

This working group discusses Teaching BSD at schools, universities, and other institutions for learning.

===== Agenda =====
  * getting an overview of who does what.
  * Developing a bachelor's (undergraduate) course
  * Adapting [[http://teachbsd.org/|TeachBSD.org]] material for other courses.
  * Sharing course materials and experiences.

If you would like to participate and/or add topics to the agenda, get in touch with the session chairs (see below). We look forward to hear from you.

==== Attending ====

This session is intended for people who can either teach courses, help develop course materials, or provide ideas for new courses with BSD content. Students are also welcome to share their experiences and wishes for such courses.

To attend, register for the [[/DevSummit|developer summit]] as well as by email for this session and be confirmed by the working group organizers (George Neville-Neil and Benedict Reuschling).

**Please do NOT add yourself here.** We will put your name here once you have received the confirmation email from the organizers. You need to put your name on the general [[DevSummit/201606|developer summit]] attendees list though.

===== Notes =====

Pad URL: https://pad.riseup.net/p/Teaching_FreeBSD

Currently developed material: www.teachbsd.org

Advanced Graduate Class
Practitioner Class
Undergraduate Class (in progress)
OS Concepts Undergrad Course

Question: Will the Undergraduate class include "new code writing" ?

Yes but we'll have to figure out what.  One option is to do something with the Scheduler (UCSC)

JHB teaches with code in user space but not in the kernel

Interesting Labs

- Writing a shell (and use DTrace to analyze)

IT Style "Intro to Unix Class"

Stallings book mentions %%FreeBSD%%, class touches upon general operating system principles.

Brown University OS Course:
''%%http://cs.brown.edu/courses/cs169/lectures.shtml%%'' (This link is broken)

Add information to the teaching giude that differentiates the modules so that people have idea of which material is appropriate to whom.

Packages for the lab material

Apply that type of structure to the github repo

OS Security Course
Known exploits in images

EC2 etc. images

Classes up on EDX (Anne)
This will need funding and professional work.

Bootcamp Material

Embedding BSD Course

IPv6 course (with regard to %%IoT%%) -> Massimiliano Stucci, Philip Paeps

Use %%FreeBSD%% in the first semester in all courses until graduation (long term goal)

Lab of PC-BSD machines (instead of Linux)

Reproducable environments, an example for a networking/distributed system course to simulate an actual environment with %%FreeBSD%%: http://imunes.net/

Barriers: cultural in i.e. engineering colleges, variety of systems

Low cost of BBB and Raspberry Pi help bring %%FreeBSD%% into universities with low budgets
