Testing existing materials #4
Description
Description
We have a series of repositories that come together to support our Study Group Program. We'd love for you to go through those repos, test our materials, and provide feedback in the issues.
Process
Example walk-through for a potential Study Group Lead who would like to participate in our program:
- Step 1: Person finds Study Group Program page or sees a tweet about it
- Step 2: Person looks at existing Study Groups on that page, and finds that their city/university/community is not represented
- Steph 3: Person visits Study Group Orientation gitbook and starts walking through the curriculum to start a study group, or reads the Study Group Project README on starting a new group
- Step 4: Person forks the Study Group Project and starts to customize their site and host events according to the instructions in the Study Group Orientation guidebook.
Expected result
Ideally, the above example "Process" would work well for everyone.
Current result
In practice, sometimes a person will fork the repo, but never finish the orientation documentation, or respond to Aurelia/Zannah's outreach. Maybe it's because our materials are not clear. 😢
Possible Fix
Audit the current Study Group Materials.
- test the orientation guide
- fork the study group project and try to create your own study group from the readme instructions
- test out our lessons and improve upon them or submit your own lesson to the issues
Let us know what works and what doesn't, via Github Issues on the appropriate repository. No improvement is too small!
