[03:15] <pleia2> doctormo: any luck with that calendar? :)
[03:16] <doctormo> pleia2: Looks clear
=== ChanServ changed the topic of #ubuntu-learning to: The Ubuntu Learning Umbrella Community | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Learning | Next Materials meeting, Thursday October 21st @ 2300 UTC | Support in #ubuntu
[03:34] <pleia2> ok, there we go
=== pleia2_ is now known as pleia2
[17:15] <jledbetter_> doctormo: I'm interested in Materials. Been wandering through the wiki trying to grok what it is/what's done/what needs to be done.
[17:17] <pleia2> jledbetter_: we'll be having a meeting on thursday (4PM Pacific) if you're available, we're trying to sorta jumpstart materials again, it languished when we got into far too many discussions over formatting
[17:17] <pleia2> http://doctormo.org/2009/08/12/systems-administration-processes-services-and-deamons-with-apache/ is an example of one of the classes though
[17:18]  * pleia2 digs up subpage explaining parts of a class
[17:19] <jledbetter_> pleia2: I probably won't be available which is why I'm pinging now. * looks at the example *
[17:19] <pleia2> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Learning/CourseLayout
[17:23] <jledbetter_> Ok, so let's say I wanted to make up the materials, I just grab a topic and put my name there? For example, I guess a topic is "Testing and QA" on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Learning/DeveloperTopics
[17:24] <pleia2> yep
[17:25] <pleia2> then you create materials in whatever format you're comfortable with, the delivered materials will have to be pdf though
[17:25] <jledbetter_> Is there a review process?
[17:26] <pleia2> not a process so much as /join #ubuntu-leanring && "hey, can someone take a look at this?"
[17:26] <pleia2> doctormo also asked for feedback on his blog
[17:27] <jledbetter_> Ok. Cause I probably won't get a chance for actually teaching this to see how students do with the practicals. I've been wanting to make some courses though. Looking at p2pu. Can create my lesson plan, etc. and put here then use there.
[17:28] <pleia2> there are some folks on the team who are experienced with teaching, so I think they will be able to eyeball the practicals and have some idea whether they are doable
[17:28] <jledbetter_> Great. What's a "Drafter"?
[17:37] <pleia2> I don't remember :) where?
[17:38] <jledbetter_> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Learning/DeveloperTopics    There's an Organizer (makes sense) and a Drafter.
[17:39] <pleia2> ah ok, so the Organizer just makes sure people aren't duplicating effort
[17:39] <pleia2> the Drafter is the person doing the core work for the topic, I think? I dunno
[17:43] <jledbetter_> Gotcha. I'll wait till after Thursday's meeting to snag a topic just in case :) Thank you!
[17:43] <pleia2> cool, thanks :)
