I wish to contribute as long as I learn Flask, any idea on what I can start to work on ?

cjmabry commented 8 years ago

Hey man, first of all thanks for wanting to help.

I'll work on getting some sort of to-do list or Trello board together once I wrap up another project I'm working on.

Until then, if you're interested in learning flask here is a great tutorial, and it's the one I followed when I started learning Flask. If you do decide to go that route, feel free to reach out to me for help.

I'll be back with more info soon. Thanks again!

mseyne commented 8 years ago

Thanks you :) Actually I am learning with this tutorial as well. (and his book too) I wait for this to-do list and return to my experiments with flask.

cjmabry commented 8 years ago

Awesome, will get that posted as soon as I can.

One more thing - can we use OSS's Computer Science curriculum as a starting point for the CS curriculum? I would assume so, because it's open source, but wanted to check to be sure.

mseyne commented 8 years ago

Yes, we can of course. Sadly about OSS, the team had divergence on the project and the development of the web app stopped, only the curriculum will remain as it is. I like your idea of being able to fork/custom curriculums and use a feedback process (reddit/quora) to improve and sort them by quality or relevance. (though I imagine it would be a huge job to do that) I see a curriculum as an object which can be iterated, improved, submited to others and receive feedback on them to make it better. Example : If I see an interesting curriculum (let's say about learning how to make an arduino robot) built by someone (or a group) I could copy it on my personal space and follow it (with the checking completion items) and I could even custom it to fill some of my personal needs where it could lack, adding a step with a tutorial, a video (youtube link), complementary comments. Ok, I stop here before I propose to rebuild a github for educational resources. :)

I really like your ideas about forking. I agree completely.

I've put together a to-do list for the things I'm working on next on Trello here under the Development tab. I'll eventually get it all moved over to GitHub issues so people aren't working on the same things, but for now if you'd like to work on something just post the To-Do as a GitHub issue and say you're working on it. If you have any questions about things don't hesitate to reach out. I'm going to work on getting full wireframes done for the site so we'll all have something to go off of.

Of course, don't feel obligated to work on anything, but thank you regardless!
