Participant Observations
- Have participants look at and comment on each other's work
- Some folks felt that logging the stage 1 activities was busy work
- Some folks felt overwhelmed by stage 1, felt better after stage 2
- End of spring has conflict with ICSE
- This timing worked, but having more lead time
- Very helpful to have two folks from the same institution
- Pair folks from different institutions during stage 1 to provide collaborators, similar to having two folks from same institution
- Ask for summary of experience of what you got out of POSSE
- Ask folks to put them on Opensource.com
Darci's Notes:
- Interesting to see how you can integrate into an existing curriculum and/or to build new curriculum
- Stage 1 exercises worked well regarding preparation for stage 2 – they were not over burdensome, the sequence was incredibly rich
- Thought I was doing busy work in some cases, e.g. how many commits. Why do the copy and paste kind of thing.
- The activity did force me to create a blog for example.
- It might have been helpful to ask us to look at other people’s posts.
- Complete newbie perspective – started worrying that stage 1 was going to be overwhelming. Stage 2 leveled this feeling; now have many pages of notes about things I want to do.
- What time of year works? Software engineering conference is in May. Stage 1 could have started a bit earlier. Reading articles activity – some overlap, too much?, create captcha, having multiple people from the same institution was good, set up pairs during stage 1 (to replicate the benefits of having more than one person from the same institution).
- Red Hat asks those who they fund to provide an immediate write up and a 1 year post evaluation.
- Yes, we will attend and we will do a summary report at a department meeting for example. Or post a summary to an institution’s website. The H stuff is always great promotional materials for the institution.
Thoughts for Stage 3
- Get folks to communicate things like roadblocks that they encounter after stage 2
