Computer Merit Badge Class
Sunday, January 27th at 4:00 PM
At the Microsoft Store in Century City!
On January 27th, 2013, at 4:00 PM in Century City, a Computer Merit Badge Class will be offered. It will be taught by Microsoft store personnel along with Hal Schloss, Scoutmaster of Troop 360.
Limited space is available, so one must sign up in advance.
Please see http://www.westfield.com/shop/stores/microsoft/centurycity?retailer=44263 for more information on the location.
The class will begin at 4:00 and end around 6:00.
The presentation and discussion will cover the “discuss/explain” aspects of the merit badge.
Scouts are expected to complete the merit badge that day and will need to bring the files required to fulfill requirements 6 and 7, and will have researched requirement 9 ahead of time.
See http://meritbadge.org/wiki/index.php/Computers and/or the Computers Merit Badge book for more information on the requirements.
While prerequisite files can be prepared on any computer, only those that are compatible with Microsoft Windows can be displayed using the equipment provided by the store. So if using a Macintosh or other non-Windows computer please either convert the files to a Windows compatible format prior to the class or bring a laptop/notebook to the class that can be used to display the files. Files compatible with Windows systems can be brought on a thumb drive for use with the store’s computers or displayed on the Scout’s laptop/notebook.
All Scouts should be in Class A uniform.
All Scouts will need to bring “Blue Cards” signed by their Scoutmaster.
To sign up or if you have any questions, please send email to scoutmaster@bhtroop360.org or call 310 559-9638
Prior registration is required because space is limited.
