Specifically, I have been working out a curriculum based on the classical education paradigm. (I posted an essay highlighting some of the concepts at http://www.neoclassicalthinktank.org/2011/05/guest-article-novoclassical-education.html) I have been looking for colleagues/collaborators to make what I have been working on useful for a larger audience. I thought I'd drop you a line to see if perhaps there was mutual synergy in what we have been independently working on and if there was interest to perhaps collaborate in crafting a decent programming education for children. Best Regards, NN Javid,
