G+_P Costello Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 California is going after those teaching coding without a license. http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20140130/11104326050/apparently-you-cant-teach-someone-to-code-california-without-license.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Brandon Gates Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Lol at first I though it was going to be about high school teachers. I remember taking Visual Basic in 11th grade with a 70 year old women who had no idea what she was doing. I'm pretty sure she was us to programming on punch cards and the only VB see knew was old school BASIC. Still it was a great class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Shannon Morse Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 I read about this too. It sounds like they're going after paid curriculums.? I'll do this show until someone tells me I can't, because I enjoy it and no ones stopping me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Joe C. Hecht Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 This is a really interesting development, affecting more than just coding, for sure, and it is even making news here on the right coast of the U.S.A, with even other stories getting told. Wondering how this might affect places like online universities, Lynda.com, or even TWiT! While you are not directly paid by the student, you are paid by advertisers, and under that premise, if it's OK for you to teach and get paid, then it should be OK for someone else to teach and get paid, providing that someone besides the student is making the payment. So do you go after the teacher, the student, the local PBS station, or??? Here is Florida, they would probably go after the entity that made the payment (hello moms and dads). They like going after the parents in Florida, where parents may be help responsible for the acts of thier children, as long as they remain in school (I think 24 years old has been the upper limit so far on that one). Where does the madness stop? TJoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
