Trying to set my younger sisters up with some skills to give them an edge in the real world, so I'm considering "hiring" them to learn SQL Server, php and JavaScript and then build a little web app. Real work, real money, real milestones and deadlines. I have yet to see if they're interested, but I'm hoping they'll buy into it.
They're 13 year old twins (ask for pics and I will remove your eyes with a fork you sick fvcks ) and I'd like to get them beyond the RPG Maple Story and into doing something actually worthwhile with their screen time.
Other suggestions on good ways to get young girls involved and interested in technology early on? They already built and maintain their 4H club's website and do their club presentations in PPT. I'm hoping to nudge them into that next step, since a little understanding of object oriented programming concepts will take them a long way.
[edit] The idea of SQL is taking the most bashing. What else could I use to introduce them to DB concepts that would be more accessible?
