The textbook "Practical OSS Exploration" is at: http://teachingopensource.org/index.php/Practical_OSS_Exploration_textbook
(there isn't a link on the TOS homepage for this, and it's surprisingly hard to find... We should probably fix this...)

Stage 1 Comments

The course related activities need expectation setting - that we want them to think and come in with some preliminary ideas, but not final plans

Stage 1
First two weeks seem OK
1.4 Register a channel on freenode: http://blog.freenode.net/2008/04/registering-a-channel-on-freenode/

Second two weeks
2.1 - both Karl & Greg have sample activities
create one on wordpress
look at http://teachingopensource.org/index.php/Planet_Feed_List on how to set up a blog and tag
post on personal page on wiki
include information on planet and talking about tagging blog posts - provides a way to direct certain posts to outside groups through planets or aggregators without having to send all your posts there.

2.2 - post on personal page on wiki
2.3 - Etherpad - may not need to be done in stage 1; don't want the use to seem artificial - seems like no good use of this during the second two weeks

What goes on a blog vs. wiki
wiki - achival - what will people want to know about in the future? project structure, things people need to know - documentation
blog - personal reflection - experience based - commentary

2.4 FOSS field trip - should be posted on a blog as opposed to wiki

what goes on personal page on wiki vs. general l foss2serve wiki?
2.5 list of projects and evaluations and have people add to/edit that wiki page
Have the participants choose a project from the list of projects on the foss2serve wiki, and then put up their evaluation on that page (this will help build up the catalog of projects....)

Third two weeks:
3.4 - perhaps this should be presented as more of a brain storming activity and make it clear that these are initial thoughts based upon what the the participant has learned thus far

*** During stage 1 we need some type of question/answer period - office hours, email, piazza, list serv, etc.

Stage 2
pedagogy & accessment
student team management
class dynamic & organization
class roadmap

have people available on IRC to help with the download/install of project

should the order of the pre-workshop activites be re-arranged? for example, should if the field trip is open ended, should that come before the FOSS in courses activity where they focus on one?
