This is the second in a two-part Girl Develop It teaching workshop. It is recommended but not required that you attend both workshops.

In Part Two, attendees will have the opportunity to give a short mock teaching presentation (3-5 slides — you can find materials here and more here) to our illustrious leadership (and attendees) to show you know your materials, understand the requirements of teaching, and are prepared to teach a class. If you meet our teaching requirements (see below) and would like to give a mock presentation, please email Parker at lp@parkerdyer.com in advance, and specify your subject.

Please note, you will need to email her your slides at least two days before this workshop. 


Girl Develop It Columbus currently offers the following workshops throughout the year:

• Introduction to HTML/CSS

• Intermediate HTML/CSS

• Introduction to JavaScript

• Introduction to Web Accessibility

• Introduction to Web Concepts

• Introduction to Git/Github

Our Columbus chapter leadership is interested in expanding our course list for 2017, so if you are interested in teaching courses on other subjects, this workshop is for you! 

You can become qualified to teach Girl Develop It courses by meeting the following requirements: 

• Have knowledge of the subject matter

• Be a Teaching Assistant for at least two courses

• Do a brief mock teaching session with GDI leadership (Part Two of this workshop! see below for more information)

In Part One, one of our veteran teachers, Andrea Jessup, presented on all the why’s and wherefore’s one should teach Girl Develop It courses and workshops. Andrea covered requirements for becoming a teacher and how to teach/create class slides/prep for class/work with attendees and TAs/etc.

Lunch will be provided (we will have gluten-free and vegetarian options for those with dietary restrictions. If you have any other dietary needs, please email Parker at lp@parkerdyer.com in advance).

Please note, if you are interested in teaching but have not yet met the requirements (i.e. TA’d at least two classes), you are still welcome to attend this workshop and show your support for those who are presenting!
