POSSE promotes student learning via participation in humanitarian Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) projects.

What is POSSE?

POSSE began as an outreach effort by Red Hat, Inc. to the higher education community. The goal was to help instructors learn about free and open source software (FOSS) so that they could incorporate FOSS into their courses.

The workshop is an extended version of the Red Hat supported Professor’s Open Source Summer Experience (POSSE) program.

Objectives:

• Participants completing the Stage 2 workshop will be able to:
• Name and explain a variety of learning activities that student participation in HFOSS projects may include
• Plan and implement HFOSS activities appropriate for their curriculum and students
• Explain challenges and opportunities of student HFOSS participation
• Discuss key aspects of FOSS culture and process
• Select HFOSS projects better suited for student participation
• Identify key sources of information for learning about HFOSS
• Participate in POSSE Stage 3
