To all GSoC students, thanks one and all for your participation and contributions to GSoC 2018! Please take note that the final round of project evaluations opens next week Monday, 6th August. We require students to complete ALL of the following before mentors begin their evaluations on August 14th.
Single link to your project
As part of the final evaluation, you will be asked to provide a link to the work you’ve done for the program. We ask that you create a new blog post using the format provided at the end of this post and provide that as your final link in the evaluation. You can find examples of blog posts from GSoC 2017 if you go into each project and click on GET THE CODE to see the links used.
Once you submit your final evaluation, you can not change it. You should share your link with your mentor BEFORE submitting your evaluation to make sure it’s okay.
Final presentation Talk post
As well as adding a final blog post, students will need to post a new topic on OpenMRS Talk, titled ‘GSoC 2018 - Project Title - Final Presentation’, using the same format and details as your blog post, and make sure to tag these with #gsoc2018-finaleval and #gsoc2018. You can also have a look at examples of GSoC 2017 final presentations to see what’s expected.
Update project wiki page
Please make sure to update the project page on the OpenMRS wiki with details of what was completed, any relevant links to code repositories and/or other resources, and importantly, clarify if there is still any outstanding work to be done on the project. One of the aims here is to move pages over to the Completed Projects section, but we need details on the status of each project first.
After action review
As part of the GSoC 2018 wrap up, we’d like to set up a call opened to all students to better understand your experiences (good and bad) working with OpenMRS this year. Details of this call will go out soon, but will take place after final evaluations are complete, during the week of 13-17 August.
