Open Development 2024/2
Welcome to the Open Development page for 2024/2. On this site, you will find all the course lessons and syllabus. The learning objectives covered are:
- The student is capable of understanding a software project and fixing a bug or implementing an improvement.
- The student is capable of making modifications that meet the technical and non-technical requirements of a software project.
- The student is capable of interacting with a (remote) development team.
This course is gamified and entirely done using a git repository. Each student creates a user following the instructions in Lesson 01 and submits a Pull Request to be included in the repository. Each completed activity is delivered via a PR in the course repository and serves as evidence for the learning objectives mentioned above.
The course revolves around four types of activities:
- Tutorial: (Guided) Preparatory activities in the classroom.
- Code: Code contributions to external projects.
- Community: Non-technical contributions that can benefit users and developers of a project, such as documentation and translations.
- Impact: Significant results achieved through the student's participation in open projects.
More information about all possible activities can be found on the Assessment page.
