A pilot project on non-conventional learning
Fernandes, Sara; Cerone, Antonio; Barbosa, L. S.This poster presents a pilot project on non-conventional learning strategies based on students’ active participation in real-life FLOSS projects. The aim of the project is to validate the hypothesis that the peer-production model, which underlies most FLOSS projects, can enhance the learning-teaching process based on extensive and systematic collaborative practices.
