Mentoring

We encourage users to post events happening in the community to the community events group on https://www.drupal.org.

Target audience: mentors

This group is for people who do:

  • IRC core mentoring office hours,
  • mentor at sprints,
  • self-identify as mentors, or
  • are interested in the general principles of mentoring in the Drupal community.

We are not *doing* mentoring here

caution
It is really important that actual mentoring happen in public:

  • on the actual issues (make comments, it is really OK!), or
  • in Drupal Slack #mentoring-team

Please politely redirect any questions about contribution to issues or IRC.

Are you a new contributor?

If you are a new contributor, and have questions about how to get involved,
please do not ask them here. Instead:

  • ask them in IRC in #drupal or #drupal-contribute any day, any time,
  • check https://www.drupal.org/core-mentoring to find some specific times when mentors will be in IRC
  • check your drupal.org account profile page has a dashboard and there are some links to getting into contribution there, also
  • see the Getting Involved handbook page.

Mentor to Mentor Discussions

Use this group to post announcements to mentors.

See also https://www.drupal.org/core-mentoring which has information about staying in contact regarding mentoring things, like the twitter account and calendar. Please go read that page. Also, read the children pages there. There is a lot of useful information about how to do mentoring, how to find tasks for new contributors, and how to plan or host a sprint.

Mentor issues, tag, queues

Some discussions should be in mentor issues:

Organizations often initiate Intranet projects with the objective of serving as the virtual nerve center where employees share, engage and collaborate. However, over time it ends up just being a central place for documents, tools, forms and a dashboard to broadcast information.

work in progress: sprint attendee and organizer timeline and checklist for small and large sprints

We started discussing this in the Mentor Meta Meeting, expanded it in the google docs notes from the meeting, and now it has been moved to a drupal.org handbook page so that it is more discoverable.

https://www.drupal.org/core-mentoring/sprint-resources/timeline

Please use this for your sprints, and make improvements to the handbook page. (Maybe improve the wording to be more clear, add missing information, ... whatever you think makes it better. Remember it is a wiki, and has revisions so it is totally safe to edit and improve.)

Thanks, Cathy

Discussion about organizing a small sprint as part of Drupal Global Sprint Weekend 2016 (Jan 30 and 31)

I bet a bunch of mentors will organize a sprint for Global Sprint Weekend Jan 30 and 31 2016 ... or people who are new sprint organizers will have mentor type questions.

So ask away! :)
