Good news SIGCSE accepted our 50 Ways poster proposal. It is scheduled for Friday, March 2, 2012 from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM.
ABSTRACT Participating in free and open source software (FOSS) has numerous benefits for students (and faculty), and there is increasing interest in encouraging such participation. There is a broad range of possible contributions to FOSS projects including documentation, testing, coding, and more. This range allows people with a variety of backgrounds, including little or no CS background, to contribute to a FOSS project. This poster describes the status of a project to identify and categorize learning activities that contribute to FOSS, and to map these activities onto the CC2008 curriculum model. We briefly summarize relevant background, describe the process used to identify appropriate activities and provide examples of activities and their mappings.
