There is ''Hobby & Profession'' page in this wiki, of which purpose is to present information about each industry or business similar to, and based on, wikipedia, but somewhat different, because ''they will be coded''.

Participants of SoCon can write both introductory and fully detailed materials for children to learn what each industry is for, based on [[XO Korea/hobby and profession|UN Standard Product & Service Classification (UNSPSC)]] table. Any company in any field can devote to education of children about what its field/industy is doing for the entire value production processes of a society or a nation.

Based on content written by any field participating in this SoCon, subsequently, workflows of the field will be written using [[XO Korea/yawl|YAWL]] or other workflow language to show the standard procedure of how the product or service is produced, delivered, and consumed. And, each module in the workflow will be coded using [[Python]] as reusable modules or objects.


Lastly, based on those modules written in [[Python]], there will be really working entities such as [[XO_Korea/bank|Bank on XO]] where children can deposit, withdraw or invest their ''cyber money''. See more at the [[XO_Korea/activity|Activity]] page.

Sometimes to get started, you need a little inspiration. We're looking for good ideas for the participants in the first-ever Summer of Content - they have 6 weeks to complete an educational open content project, preferably one focusing on basic education for the developing world. Browse our current mentors and project ideas below, and add your own.

This page is for internship applicants, mentor applicants and other people and organizations to post their project proposals. The application and project proposal template will include the project in, for evaluation on August 6. Please comment and give feedback on the proposals listed below.

Flags for projects

Feel free to use these categories to search through or tag your projects (or make your own categories - just be sure to include the categories in Category:Summer of Content categories). Here are a few for starters.

Current projects

Also see Category:Summer of Content proposals. Please add yours to the list! Use the Summer of Content application template to automatically be included in the judging. Feel free to expand upon and edit the ideas in each proposal - every application is under development by anyone who want to pitch in. (As of 7/21/07, the OLPC volunteers portal project is a great example of what a good in-progress proposal could look like. Help us flesh the rest of them in!)

  • Add your proposals here or below!

Art/Music

Accessibility

Community-building

Education materials and creation

Search and discovery of information


Other proposals in progress/under discussion

These proposals haven't yet been turned into applications. Maybe you can help? See the Summer of Content application template to learn how - just make a new page with the title of the project as the name of the page, follow the instructions to use the application template, add a link to the project in the list above, and start fleshing out the project description. (If someone can write a better set of instructions for how to do this, please do!)

  • Stories: Shoot a short documentary film on what life is like for schoolchildren in your village
  • How-tos: Make how-to videos on playing regional sports, musical instruments, etc.
  • Food: Add recipes from your region to the Wikibooks Cookbook
  • More food: Create a cooking game like to Cooking Mama, except with localized, user-provided recipes.
  • Classroom activities: Create some constructionist learning activities.
  • Language learning: Contribute video, translations, &c to Colingo.org

Lastly, based on those modules written in Python, there will be really working entities such as Bank on XO where children can deposit, withdraw or invest their cyber money. See more at the Activity page.
