+ Subject: Mentor for Outreachy
|
| |
+ Hi,
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ The Fedora project is looking for mentors for project for the next round
|
| |
+ of Outreachy. For those who aren't familiar, Outreachy is a paid internship
|
| |
+ inspired by Google Summer of Code for people underrepresented in tech.
|
| |
+ Interns work remotely with mentors on projects ranging from programming,
|
| |
+ user experience, documentation, illustration and graphical design, to data
|
| |
+ science.
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ Every idea or project needs one or two responsible mentors to teach and help
|
| |
+ the intern. Please note that Outreachy applicants are expected to make a
|
| |
+ first contribution to the project they are applying for so mentors need to have
|
| |
+ proper tasks defined for applicants to work on. Mentors should be able to
|
| |
+ commit at least 5 hours a week on most weeks from the beginning of the six-week
|
| |
+ application period ($START) through the end of the three-month
|
| |
+ internship ($END). You should have a real interest in their success and
|
| |
+ be engaged and excited about the project. Take a look at the Outreachy Info for
|
| |
+ Mentors for more information. Former Outreachy mentors and interns from various
|
| |
+ communities and projects
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ To become a mentor, come up with an idea or project to help the intern with.
|
| |
+ It should be completed in about three months. Open an issue on
|
| |
+ https://pagure.io/mentored-projects with the subject "Outreachy project -
|
| |
+ <project name>". Please tage it "Outreachy". You can use the template at
|
| |
+ ($link). The deadline to apply is $DATE.
|
| |
+
|
| |
+ Past Outreachy interns with Fedora have worked on a variety of projects
|
| |
+ including but not limited to Fedora Hubs Design, PatternFly web development
|
| |
+ and Kernel Tools.
