Social discussion of CS in K-12

[Charles Schultz <sacrophyte AT gmail.com>]

I have no problem footing a good chunk of that cost, but I would want the film to start a discussion, not end a discussion. :) For those that have been to the Co-op art theater, they sometimes have small discussions around a film (particularly before-hand); I am more interested in a provocative dialogue that stirs up action steps. My expectation is that the film addresses some issues that are relevant for our community, but we also have a myriad of other blessings and challenges as well.

Yes, it does look good.  Charles are you offering to host a screening?  It is only $350. 

In all seriousness, I would be up for trying to put together a screening as a CTRL-Shift project...mainly because I need something else to do right now ;)

It would seem to be a perfect thing to end EdCampCU with, but that is coming up in just a few weeks. 

Thoughts?

Any interest in the "Most likely to succeed" movie/documentary? Ted Dintersmith is at the helm, so it certainly has my attention.
