Adapt Learning Community: LearnChamp joins Adapt Learning collaborators

We are very pleased to officially welcome LearnChamp as collaborators to the Adapt Learning project. More info in this news item.

A special welcome to Petra Nussdorfer, who is joining the core developer team on a full time basis.

I'd like to express my thanks to Michael and Stefan from LearnChamp for this significant contribution. Having been in talks since late January, it has become clear that LearnChamp fully understand and believe in the Adapt project. We are delighted to have you on board!

We are seeking additional developers to join the core team (i.e. to become collaborators as defined on our governance page).

Anyone can join, regardless of whether you are an individual or organisation. The key requirement is that you are willing to take on suitable development tasks and work to our standards. If you are interested, please get in touch with me.

Thanks,
Sven

Hi Sven,

Thanks for the warm welcome and I'm really looking forward to working with you and the whole team.

Best regards
Petra

Hi Petra,

just to record the notes from our 'getting you started' call this morning:

Attendees:

Petra, Mark, Sven, Dennis, Daryl

Notes:

We agreed to introduce you into the project by giving you an initial set of introductory, yet helpful tasks and guiding you along.

The initial tasks are 'designed' to help you get up to speed and do not require an in depth understanding of the project or the technologies. The tasks are, however, very important to help the project progress. In summary, by working through these tasks, you will learn a lot about the project while producing necessary and helpful output.

The tasks we agreed on are:

Help Sven on design tasks (separate brief to follow)
Help Ryan document coding standards
Make Open Input component
Document how to create a component for the community on the Wiki
As part of the documentation tasks, please review and work with these items:

The following is relevant background work:

Review and understand Adapt Framework concept document
Familiarise yourself with these technologies (roughly in order of priority - relevant diagram attached)
- NodeJS
- Backbone
- Handlebars
- Less
- Underscore
- Grunt
- Mocha
- Selenium

Actions:

Sven to brief Petra on design tasks help (done; Petra having a stab at designing the profile)
Petra to join the talk with Chris, Ryan and Aniket on expected core standards and how to work like the core team
Petra and Daryl to plan the Open Input component build

Welcome on board, Petra and Learnchamp!

Thanks,
Sven
