Below is the schedule for the during-workshop activities. This is only a very preliminary draft. All comments to Heidi Ellis (ellis@wne.edu).

Day 1 (Evening)

  1. Workshop Overview
    • Introduction of participants
    • Schedule
  2. Intro to FOSS
    • Intro to FOSS culture
    • Brief history of FOSS

Day 2

  1. The Community
    • One idea here would be to provide a hands-on tour of a FOSS project, identifying all the major features and how they work along the way.
    • The idea is to walk folks through how to get started on a project.
    • Talk about FOSS Field trips and how they can be modified for student use.
  2. Licensing and IP - Move to Pre-Workshop?
    • I'm concerned that this topic may raise questions that might be better handled f2f? Or should we set up an IRC to specifically address this?
  3. Education Examples
    • The idea here is to provide an idea of the variety of different contributions that can be made
    • This would be a high level overview of what students have done, without lots of detail on how.
    • Provide examples of existing student contributions
  4. Course Management
    • For a project course: roadmap - learning outcomes and schedule of deliverables
    • For a single assignment: setting learning outcomes
    • Trying to find the right size project
    • Evaluating student work
  1. Getting Started on a Project
    • Use Mousetrap?
    • Now lets get folks started in an HFOSS project.
    • Download and install an HFOSS project
    • Identify a small change that you could make.
    • Basic outline is here: http://teachingopensource.org/index.php/POSSE_curriculum#Tuesday
    • Talk about how you would create student deliverables?
    • Experience reports from faculty on how they did this in a classroom.
  2. Upstream Adoption
  3. Detailed Examples
    • Provide a more indepth walk through of how students accomplished the examples we presented in item 4 above.
    • Talk about assignments, grading, interacting with the community within a case study.
  4. Going Forward
  5. Student Involvement

Other ideas to capture:

  • how to measure value added to an ongoing project started by others
