Overview
POSSE, the Professors’ Open Source Software Experience, prepares instructors to guide student participation in Humanitarian Free and Open Source Software (HFOSS) projects. This POSSE Roundup is a workshop for instructors who have previously attended POSSE, or who have open source experience including contributing to an open source project.
The workshop will allow faculty to work together in small groups to become more familiar with a selected HFOSS project. The group work will include getting the development environment installed, finding a bug, fixing it and submitted a patch back to the community. The groups will work under the guidance of a faculty member who has successfully contributed to the HFOSS project. The workshop structure of the day will emphasize active participation of attendees.
