The goal of an HFOSS kit is to provide an isolated environment built with artifacts from an active HFOSS project that can be used to learn and practice software skills. For example, a kit containing a code base, issue tracker, and revision control history could support learning related to version control. HFOSS kits can provide the complexity and scale of the real project, and introduce students to computing for social good. A kit can also provide better predictability and control for the instructor, including an ability to reset the environment to a known state. | * HFOSS Education Kits – This topic will cover development of HFOSS kits as an approach to making HFOSS education more manageable.

HFOSS Education
March 15, 2023 - Toronto, Ont.
Meeting Location
Metro Toronto Convention Centre South building. Room 718B.
This event is an affiliated event of the SIGCSE Technical Symposium. See SIGCSE 2023 for general information about the location.
Overview
Student participation in Humanitarian Free and Open Source Software (HFOSS) provides an opportunity for learning software engineering technical and professional skills while also engaging students with computing for social good. There is evidence that placing computing in the context of social good may help attract women and other underrepresented student groups to computing.
Experience indicates that faculty are interested in employing HFOSS but also find this teaching approach challenging, especially at first. To better support instructors, HFOSS educators are exploring ways to provide better support and control for instructors taking initial steps in using HFOSS with students. This full-day event will consist of morning and afternoon sessions that can be registered for separately. The focus for each session will be as follows:
POSSE Round-up – The morning session will provide an opportunity for faculty members engaged in HFOSS education to present and discuss their experiences. Attendees will include prior attendees of the Professors Open Source Software Experience (POSSE) and other faculty who have some familiarity with open source software development.
HFOSS Education Approaches – The afternoon session will explore tools and opportunities that can help faculty expand HFOSS education. This will include:
- Instructor-Led HFOSS Projects – This topic will focus on development of instructor-led HFOSS projects. This model of HFOSS education employs HFOSS projects that are started by and managed by one or more academic institutions. Examples include Libre Food Pantry, Open Energy Dashboard, FarmData, and Submitty. Presentation and discussion will cover status of these projects and issues and opportunities for starting or joining an instructor-led HFOSS project.
- HFOSS Education Kits – This topic will cover development of HFOSS kits as an approach to making HFOSS education more manageable. The goal of an HFOSS kit is to provide an isolated environment built with artifacts from an active HFOSS project that can be used to learn and practice software skills. For example, a kit containing a code base, issue tracker, and revision control history could support learning related to version control. HFOSS kits can provide the complexity and scale of the real project, and introduce students to computing for social good. A kit can also provide better predictability and control for the instructor, including an ability to reset the environment to a known state.
