Hi there,
My name is Merav Yuravlivker, and I'm the CEO of Data Society - we deliver
data science academies to Fortune 500 companies, government agencies, and
other international organizations.
We're currently looking for part-time Python instructors and TAs, and my
friend Jackie Kazil recommended I reach out to you and your list serv. All
of these opportunities can be available for people who are employed
full-time, professors, or grad students. We pay well and provide all the
materials for the instructor, as well as instructor training and support.
If possible, would you please be able to share the following blurb? Please
let me know if there is anything else you need from me. Much appreciated!
Best,

Our primary target is teachers and school administrators in order to start
a conversation and allow them to meet personally, and create a space to
continue interactions. https://bit.ly/ConferencistaEdupyOctubre2023
The entrance will be free for everyone with registration and anyone is
invited to attend. We are letting you know just in case someone is
traveling coincidentally to Colombia and is willing to offer a conference
or a workshop.

I realized we went out of the list, that was my fault.
I also have to put in the field the need for basic things to be learned by
our kids, taking care of themselves in spiritual and also affective ways to
be able to socialize.
I agree with you, that we need to experiment a lot.
