GSoC students, as part of your Midterm Evaluations, you will need to prepare a YouTube video presentation for your project.
-
BEFORE the midterm evaluations begin (26 June 19:00 UTC) you will need to prepare AND UPLOAD a short (plan for between 5 and 10 minutes) presentation video about the current state of your project. Upload this video to YouTube and embed it in a post in a new topic here on OpenMRS Talk. Use the “GSoC” category and title your topic like:
GSoC 2015: PROJECT NAME Midterm Presentation
. - There are many free and open source software applications and free web services that can help you record a screencast. As you search and find good ones, you can add your suggestions here to share with other students.
- Your video should primarily be a demonstration of your current code/project, a walkthrough or highlights of the code you’ve written, and/or some slides that describe your design process. Talk with your mentors to decide what should be shown in the video.
- Encourage the community to respond with questions and comments about your work! As they post follow-up replies in your topic, please be ready to respond with answers, or even a post a follow-up video to demonstrate answers if appropriate.
- For inspiration, you should review the “gsoc2014” category for topics that include “Midterm Presentation” to look at midterm videos from last year. https://talk.openmrs.org/tags/gsoc2014
Once again, please share your ideas about screencast tools here. We look forward to seeing your progress in the next 1 to 2 weeks!
