Happy New Year everyone! I trust you had a good holiday!
For me I was able to blissfully ignore the big pile of un- or semi-
processed video of 2014 events.,, But this week I have begun to grapple.
And here is the first dose, to be followed by a good few more. The CSNYC
initiative was founded in part by my fellow ISOC-NY VP Evan Korth, so it
is a cause close to our hearts. It is beyond doubt that, in today's world,
no child should be without some degree of formal training in Computer
Science, and CSNYC aims to get it on the curriculum and in the budget of
every school in our city. I hope these videos of our teacher gatherings
may inspire others to mount similar efforts in their own locales. Please,
even if you don't watch, try and think of someone - teacher or kid - that
they might benefit and forward appropriately. Briefly, the link is

children in NYC local public schools have access to computer science
education, they host the *CSNYC Education Meetup*
<http://www.meetup.com/CSNYC-Education-Meetup/> to help build a community
of professional practice around computer science education. It also serves
as an interface between the teachers and the local tech community. Topics
