Gonzalo,
having worked with a handful of student groups in Austria over the past
three years I agree with your observation.
With education students I feel it's hard to get them involved because
they're simply not used to tools such as mailing-lists, wikis, and IRC
which happen to be the places
Chris,
I would consider Pootle support basic good practice, not advanced.
I agree with others who said we need to get them involved in the community.
That might actually make the certificate attractive to teachers. If he
assigns a student to get a certificate from us the student will learn

Sameer,
I remember being a student like it was yesterday. The thing is, you have
classes like this one that Mel Chua pointed out awhile back:

I looked at some of their blogs and some of them were struggling with pretty
basic stuff like how to put in a
