How to to get student involved in Cuis and related projects. Nevertheless, Ruben is a bit clueless if it is only given as assignment "gain some credits for whatever improvement you bring to the community". First Juan suggestion, I copy at the Cuis-Smalltalk-Dev wiki, we don't want to forget them. <a href="https://github.com/Cuis-Smalltalk/Cuis-Smalltalk-Dev/wiki/Helping-Cuis" target="_blank">https://github.com/Cuis-Smalltalk/Cuis-Smalltalk-Dev/wiki/Helping-Cuis</a> If we want to be more elaborate, the Cuis community should discuss with the teachers to construct a more precise list of "Cuis assignments" and the amount of credits that such assignments will give to the students. In the short term, this will give more visibility to the students, make the process more sustainable and serious. In mid and long term, it could disseminate to several universities.

I'm currently enrolled in a class that uses mainly Cuis, and they give us extra credits if we contribute to the development of CuisUniversity. Since I do not currently have any specific idea as to what to contribute, I figured I might as well ask the wider community whether they need help with a particular project. I already have experience with Smalltalk (had an OOP class with the same teacher before which also used Cuis), and I also contributed to Cuis before. So, if anyone needs help with a feature, tests, or anything really, do let me know! </blockquote> This is a question that gets asked from time to time. Maybe old timers could also want some interesting/useful problem to work on. I suggest that we collect a list of projects or areas where improvements would be good. We could host that in a .md document in the main repo, or perhaps a wiki page at GitHub. In any case, what follows is the first sketch I could come up with. Please answer with your own ideas, comments and corrections. Rubén, feel fre to pick any! Ideas for helping Cuis ================= Beginner level -------------------- - Read the Cuis book. Understand every detail. Do every exercise. Suggest corrections and improvements. - Use Cuis. Play with it. Try every dev tool. Report on your experience.

Compare with other Smalltalk dialects. Compare with non-Smalltalk widget libraries and kits. What is missing?
