Difference between revisions of "Pune/COEP/FOSS Devel Elective"

College of Engineering Pune is offering a FOSS Development elective for final year IT (Information Technology) and CE (Computer Engineering) students. I will be delivering guest lectures during this semester long course. Professor Abhijit AM is coordinating the course from COEP. Lectures are starting from tomorrow morning. The curriculum for this course is available at [[Curriculum]].

Our aim is to help students be part of the FOSS developers community. We are looking for some mentors to help the students. Even though two of us are taking the course, to make the course successful we need participation from the whole FOSS community. We will be using [http://nrcfosshelpline.in/code/wiki/FellowshipMentors this list] to assign mentors. So please add your name and areas you can guide students on that list. Also if you can take any sessions on any of the topics mentioned there, mention your interest on the talk page. We can consider remote sessions over irc or video conferencing too. The idea is to have one mentor per student through out the course and help him or her to be part of a project community.
