@Josharias: Advanced groupings of stuff in JS a student could write a test plan (and video for). I added a few suggestions in its card so far but probably could have more.

@xtariq: Bits and pieces of TTA / Neo-TTA / Alchemy and other new modules

@Cpt. Crispy Crunchy: Anything Cities, static or dynamic. What should we aim to test other than "Hey I see cities!"

@Marcin Sciesinski: The computer modules

@Florian: GooeysQuests, maybe specifically the templating tool. Good suggestions on how to validate it? Export stuff to prefabs? Maybe we could have a task to prepare actual structural templates, akin to the task to make new blocks

@msteiger: Cities, PolyWorld, WorldViewer, Light & Shadow (too broken?) etc? Minimap? @Skaldarnar on L&S in particular?



@SkySom / @Michael: Enough stuff to test in Rails to validate that it is still in one piece, or is it too broken?



Probably more coming

I created a Trello board for potential tasks . I have a bunch of ideas but may not have the time to submit them all pretty in the GCI task system, and would like for others to help clarify and provide more details. For instance I just added 10 "Test Plan" tasks with several of them possible to split out into additional advanced tracks. Imagine playing JoshariasSurvival and crafting the basics, that's one task. Then another task could be rushing to create a windmill, or cheating the right parts via console then just validating the crafting and placement. We have existing videos for lots of things, but they need to be added to the right tasks.The list is in Trello as we aren't supposed to have these tasks public until GCI starts. Anybody in our Trello org should be able to view (and edit, I hope?) the board, while it isn't publicly accessible. That way we can also get input from those not quite ready to be a full GCI mentor (which means no access to the GCI task list). Those that do mentor can take and polish these ideas as actual tasks and publish them in the toolSo! As the topic says we need more mentors, and now we can also use simply more people with ideas for tasks and/or willingness to get the tasks more details. This could be as simple as suggesting some functionality in a series of modules. Although at the same time don't write the whole test plan for a student - they need to figure out exactly how to test. Videos should help figure that out although maybe we should be sure to validate stuff actually works in the first place ...In particular would like feedback (and ideally mentor signups! Come on it isn't GSOC-level difficulty at all, more just hang out on IRC and answer basic questions!) from - although ideally in Trello, not here, since here is public. Anybody without a Trello account sign up and join up! Let me know if you need an org invite. I added @Skaldarnar to the board as admin, not sure if @Rostyslav Zatserkovnyi has an account yet? Thought so. Hmm.Finally as for the tasks that do exist are we sure they're all accessible at a pre-university level, potentially to students that don't even know Java yet? Although I'm not entirely sure if those students would be expected to limit themselves to non-coding tasks, or if the coding tasks should be easy enough to learn with (maybe at least some of them). Also I believe a task, even a multi-instance task, gets blocked while a single student is working on it. So something like "Write an intro forum post!" might be bad if a student locks it up then doesn't do it for some reason. Would it be bad if we had too many super easy tasks so they could hit 3 then leave? Although we could just not allow them to become finalists in that case.
