Excellent news Charlie and well done on the Grant funding . This is exactly why we need your expertise for our Grant Sprint in Como :)

This will add momentum for the curriculum development activities and great timing :)

PS: btw we now have draft ideas for a planned H2020 proposal (building upon the feedbacks from a previous unsuccessful bid) for AgriGIS that Didier Leibovici is planning. We are also planning a new AgriGIS Thematic for Geo4All to build upon ideas and Didier will lead this along with one more colleague. If those who are interested in this bid idea please contact Didier by email - Didier.Leibovici at nottingham.ac.uk (cc in), we can amke sure they are cced in the mails on this.

Subject: [Ica-osgeo-labs] Looking for Web-GIS syllabi

Hello GeoForAll colleagues,

Some colleague and I just received some funding to develop a new Web-GIS course for Spring 2016, and this week we are working on a rough draft syllabus as a requirement from the funder. We're in negotiation with the funder on intellectual property rights, but we are confident that we will be able to license the course open access under some Creative Commons license. I also want to try and use this effort as a step forward in our quest to build the content system and a 'new derivative work' system.

My request:

If you have taught a Web-GIS class in the last few years and are willing to share your syllabus with us, or if you have relevant materials you are willing to share, please let me know (and copy my developer colleague, Andy Anderson, cc'd above). If we use anything, we'd of course give you attribution!

Thanks in advance!
