Looking for thoughts about how to add Facilitator Notes to Learn
Designers and developers are discussing how best to implement Facilitator Notes to Learn WordPress. The team will be concluding discussions and moving to implementation soon.
Brainstorm: Introducing Learning Pathways to users during onboarding
This post takes some of the ideas the team brainstormed in Drawing new learners to the new Learn.WordPress.org and is proposing concrete steps to getting them implemented.
Come leave your thoughts by November 8th.
Retiring the Subject Matter Expert (SME) role in favor of the GitHub Editors group (continuation to last week's discussion)
The Training Team has tried using the SME role for two tasks: vetting content topics and assisting content creators. We’ve not seen SMEs vet content topics in a while. And we believe assisting content creators can be done in an editor capacity. To simplify team roles and remove friction, team reps recommend removing the SME role and relying on the GitHub Editors group instead.
What do folks think about this proposal? Please leave your thoughts (or questions/comments) in the :thread:
If anyone has feedback on any of the above items, please feel free to leave them in the comments of the relevant blog post/GitHub issue or Slack thread.
