Board topic suggestion - Learning materials

#1 Postby ColinDelia » Tue Jul 27, 2010 1:19 pm

How about a forum for education? Where people can recommend books, videos, lectures, websites, recommend colleges, give career advice etc

This kind of thing can really work well when the community is contributing sources and it always stays up-to-date since it is community created

I think we're all here to learn. So in a way, we're all met students.

Are you talking about a separate forum from the "Got a question? I'm listening." forum? If so what are suggestions for the title of the forum?

Yeah, I'm hoping that most of the threads would be started by people sharing learning materials .

Maybe some main thread ideas could be stickied on top like this:

"Meteorology Lectures"
"Meteorology Books"
"Meteorology Journals"
"Whitepapers"
etc etc where anyone could contribute.

And then questions, comments, etc could be asked outside of the stickies.

My suggestion for a title is
"Meteorology Learning Materials"

This is just my idea. I would move the "Got a question? I'm Listening" forum into this new learning materials forum. I like ColinDelia's suggestion for a name. I think S2K needs a forum like this.
