Based on what I've seen of other organizations, I think we could benefit
from 'chains' of tasks. Each task in a chain would require the student to
have completed work equivalent to the previous tasks. The first one or two
tasks in the chain would be beginner tasks, easier than our current
beginner tasks but not as easy as the linked one above (which I think is
too easy).
Chain 1:
- "Download and compile one Apertium translation pair, and send a
screenshot of trial translations."
- "Add 200 words to the bilingual dictionary" or "Add 1 lexical transfer
rule"
- "Add 500 words to the bilingual dictionary" or "Add 10 lexical transfer
rules" or "Write a constrastive grammar" or ...
Chain 2:
- "Install a few translation pairs from your distribution software
repository (or download and compile if you want to). Fork APy and run it
locally on your computer. Send a screenshot of trial queries." or similarly
for html-tools
- all the issue-fixing or feature-proposal tasks for APy or similarly for
html-tools
- tasks which involve modifying or testing with components of both ("Fix
html-tools behavior when APy is down" etc.)
Similar 'chains' could be made for begiak and the lt toolbox tasks. How
does this idea sound?
