Teaching Open Source - Birds of a Feather - SIGCSE 2014
- SIGCSE ID: Birds of a Feather 23
- Location: Edgewood
- Time: Thursday, 3/6/2014 @ 6:10 - 7:00 PM
Abstract
Integrating Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) into our curricula can provide students with a rich, motivating learning experience that helps them develop technical as well as soft skills. However, integrating FOSS into curricula does have its challenges. This birds-of-a-feather (BoF) seeks to bring together faculty to discuss challenges, share resources, share solutions, and make connections. So, whether you are considering integrating FOSS into a class for the first time, or you are looking for ways to improve what you are already doing, this BoF is for you. Members of the Teaching Open Source (http://teachingopensource.org) and the foss2serve (http://foss2serve.org/) communities will help guide the discussion and be on hand for questions.
Organizers
- Karl Wurst - Worcester State University - Has been working with students in a number of FOSS projects as part of his department’s Capstone course for the last 3 years. Has taught a course on open source.
