About
This is the GRASS page for Google Code-In 2017. Here we will list task ideas and other information related to the GRASS GCI projects.
What is Google Code-In?
Pre-university students ages 13 to 17 are invited to take part in Google Code-in: Our global, online, contest introducing teenagers to the world of open source. With a wide variety of bite-sized tasks, it’s easy for beginners to jump in and get started no matter what skills they have. Mentors from our participating organizations lend a helping hand as participants learn what it’s like to work on an open source project. For more details, see Google Code-In main page.
How does it work?
- Students search for a task that interests them and claim it. They have at least three days and up to five to complete it.
- The student works on the task, getting guidance from mentors, if needed.
- Once the student has finished, he/she submits the work for review through the contest website.
- Mentors from the organization evaluate the work, provide feedback, and if it's complete, accept it! Otherwise, specific feedback is provided, and the student goes back to step #2!
- Go to step #1 and repeat!
More details can be found at: https://developers.google.com/open-source/gci/how-it-works
Tasks
The organizations should create a large list of short (3-5 hour) tasks for students to work on. Tasks are categorized as: Code, Documentation/Training, Outreach/Research, Quality Assurance, or User Interface. Some examples of tasks of different categories can be found here.
Details about the tasks and lessons learnt
- Translations are not allowed by Google Code In as tasks.
- A strategic plan is needed to generate a pool of tasks doable in 3-5 hours (from beginner to advanced tasks); from ~50 up to ~100 tasks!!
- A large mentor pool that can tackle evaluations of about ~ 100 tasks!! Importantly, the revision of tasks should be rather quick, since the students should complete as many tasks as possible to win the contest.

Note: To sign up as a mentor, write an email to: gsoc-admin@osgeo.org.
