12 Steps For Teaching Your Next Programming Class on OpenShift by Katie Miller.
From the post:
The OpenShift Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a valuable resource for running tutorials on web programming, especially if you have a limited budget.
OpenShift abstracts away configuration headaches to help students create shareable applications quickly and easily, for free, using extensible open-source code – as I explained in a previous post.
In this blog post, I will draw on my personal workshop experiences to outline 12 steps for teaching your next programming class with OpenShift Online.
See Katie’s post for the details but as a sneak preview, the twelve steps are:
- Try Out OpenShift
- Choose Topic Areas
- Select Cartridges to Support Your Teaching Goals
- Develop a Work Flow
- Create and Publish Sample Code Base
- Write Workshop Instructions
- Determine Account Creation Strategy
- Prepare Environments
- Trial Workshop
- Recruit Helpers
- Run Workshop
- Share Results and Seek Feedback
An excellent resource for teaching the techie side of semantic integration.
