students list, too.***
Hello everyone,
The Melange team is hard at work getting the code for administering
midterm surveys working. Things are looking good (TM), but here are
the plans for both best case and worst case scenario for Monday, 6
July. If folks have the desire to help test and/or help out a bit with
patches over the next few days, please jump into #melange on Freenode
and ask how you can assist.
Surveys will be required from:
* students (to evaluate their mentors and their own progress)
* org admins & mentors with students assigned to them on the GSoC 2009
site (to evaluate their students and their own performance as mentors)
* org admins & mentors with no students assigned to them, as well as
mentors with students assigned, will be asked to complete an optional
survey about the program overall
You can get an idea of some of the questions we will ask as part of
the survey. [0] Please note this document is by no means complete and
will be updated over the next few days.
Best Case Scenario:
All code for surveys is good to go on Monday, 6 July. Before 19:00 UTC
that day, we will publish a how to guide for taking the surveys.
Worst Case Scenario:
All code for surveys is not ready on Monday, 6 July. If this is going
to happen, we will let you as soon as we know this will be the case.
If we are not able to administer the official surveys starting on
Monday, 6 July, we will email each mentor with a student assigned to
her to ask whether or not the student should pass the midterm
evaluation and receive payment; we'll do this via a Google spreadsheet
form.
The official surveys will then be administered when the code is ready,
but we don't want to gate paying students on making sure that all our
code is working.
Please note - we really expect everything to be more than ready by
Monday, 6 July, so relax! But it's always best to plan for best and
worst case scenarios.
Any questions, please ask away.
Cheers,
LH
