<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span lang="EN-AU">I have enjoyed watching all of the conference presentations this weekend. I was really looking forward to the education talk and I am looking for where the guys
in the audience are having their discussion. I am a primary school teacher in Australia, I have had growing success with Blender and have a few ideas on where the best place to start with very young Blender users. I think that although Blender has many different
facets there are some core skills and knowledge that effect nearly all aspects of the program. I have also found that there are some definite no nos when starting kids off with Blender many I have committed and in doing so killed a lot of the kids motivation
through frustration. This is entirely the fault of the teacher (me) not the program but I began to think after the conference talk that if I had a curriculum to work to as I do for math, science etc. I could have avoid these pitfalls. I applaud all the speakers
for their work in blender education, I now extra ideas for projects and I am humbled by the guys who run the free not for profit course. I was perhaps most fascinated by the audience contributions and would like to participate in a discussion like this. So
if anyone could point me in the right direction I would be very grateful.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
