Funding
We have more travel funding than in the past (airfare and lodging, not food). If you are involved with Sage, or allied projects, in an educational setting and have a project to work on during the workshop, send a request for funding, with details, to Rob Beezer, [email protected].
Anyone with any interest in the use of Sage in educational settings is welcome, and encouraged to attend, with or without funding.
Logistics
- June 19, 20 and 21 are expected to be full days. So plan to travel on June 18 and June 22.
All sessions will be somewhere (TBA) on the University of Washington Campus interactive campus map.
Sage Days 48 will happen the same week at the University of Washington with the Notebook Development as its theme.
Be sure to buy your plane ticket on a US carrier.
See the local information page for more specifics.

IRC
There is an IRC channel for sage days: #sagemath-days on irc.freenode.net. Feel free to join to discuss whatever... For those without IRC clients, http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=sagemath,sagemath-days
Projects
Sage Days typically allow a great deal of unstructured time to work on projects, either in groups or with the assistance of experts that are available. Please plan to have a project to work on. Examples could be:
- Learning a new area of Sage in preparation for teaching a course.
- Preparing worksheets for a course.
- Learning how to create interacts for the Sage library.
- Learning how to contribute new code to Sage.
(wstein): Work on my free open Sage book: http://code.google.com/p/sage-power-book/
- (bardg): Making videos suitable for 100-level students to use SAGE in calculus, finite math, statistics, linear algebra, etc... (even precalculus?)
- Organization of Sage educational resources
- rating of worksheets?
- tagging, organization of available options
- suggestion from chemistry: set up committees to curate resources so that faculty get service credit
