The project aims at sharing knowledge by distributing the material as open source, under a MIT licence. Before sharing any content make sure you have the right to do it.
The project will be maintained by the IEEE-HKN members. However, the content must be open to everyone with an internet connection.
Exercises take most of the learning material. The format for them devises a unique instructional text, and one, or more possible solutions.
The platform should guarantee an incremental learning process, where concepts build up one on the top of the other: many simple exercises are better than few complex ones.
The project must provide an easy way for contributors and users to communicate, allowing crowdsourcing and open discussions.
The project courses must be compatible with different learning methodologies and provide support at different levels of knowledge.
The solution should be based on well-known open source tools and procedures able to reduce the overall maintenance costs and allows an easy contribution flow.
In future expansions the solution must maintain a high scalability level, allowing unlimited contributors, organizing them with different roles and access policies.
The project should publicly define the organization structure, identifying the position represented by each contributor in an open and verifiable way.
The quality of the material must be constantly monitored by one or more maintainers for each course, addressing user’s feedback and ensuring compliance with the project best practices.
