Sugar Labs Project Review

Roles applicable for my students include developer and content writer.

Commonalities across roles: It appears like all roles require participants to perform some type of pedagogy and communication. Educators explain and clarify complex ideas, content writers use their technical knowledge to provide documentation, a people person uses his/her people skills to create awareness about this project among people and encourages them to participate. Developers communicate by writing code, and a designer communicates via images and other state-of-the art graphics tools. Translators communicate to provide the technical knowledge to people in other languages.

Differences between roles: The methodology of implementing pedagogy and communication varies in each role.

In order to submit a bug, one needs to go to the correct Github repository. Then click on the Issues tab. The button called “New Issue” on the Issues tab should be used for logging a new issue and then clicking the “Submit New Issue” tab submits the issue.
