Recap of December 22nd Meeting


Slack Log  (Requires Slack login to view. Set one up if you don’t have a Slack account)

      1. Outline of the four tiers of lesson plans
        • @bethsoderberg reminded us of the tier outlines that we were given at WCUS by Jen.
        • These tiers are listed in the P2 post here: https://make.wordpress.org/training/2015/12/15/4-tiers-for-workshops/ (hat tip to @courane01)
        • We discussed the terms “use all features” that are in the tiers. It is a very broad thing and merits some brainstorming + refinement. Probably best in a P2 post.
      2. Updates on the Tier One lessons
        • @juliekuehl no additional progress on plugin overview
        • @meaganhanes “What You Can Do With WordPress” will be done and ready for editing by Jan
        • @chanthaboune is formulating a timeline for the lessons
          • @chanthaboune asked for time spent on each part of the lesson creation: Research – 2-4hrs, Content – 2-4hrs, Visual assets – 1-2hrs, Copyediting – 1-2hrs, Testing – ??
      3. Updates on copy editing from @meaganhanes
        • We got a lot of copyediting done last week! There were 5 items to copyedit, and 4 are 100% done! (Theme Customizer, What To Do When You Forget Your Password, and Template Hierarchy)
        • Also, the template emails for SupportFlow are done.
        • @c3zh edited the Settings page. Some additional edits are required and will be ready by the end of the year.
        • @judylw has volunteered to add questions to the “what to do when you forget your password” lesson
      4. Holiday expectations: do we want to meet next week?
        • We are not meeting next week, but@chanthaboune will post a plan/timeline and ask for updates in the same post.
      5. Questions on any other things
        From last week: installation lesson. Courtney found this tutorial for a USB install (http://lorelleteaches.com/2012/02/04/how-to-install-wordpress-on-your-computer-or-usb/) but Hack the Hood uses Chromebooks. Will have continued discussion on P2 post.

Ideas to Table for Later

  • Buddy system?
  • technical way for multiple people assigned to the post (user access permission issue in WP)

BRAINSTORMING TIME!

  • Skitch alternatives

Share any updates to the recap and share your thoughts on alternatives to Skitch (we have a few more brainstorming posts coming, so get ready!).
