Description

While the LFX mentorship programme and GSoC have reaped benefits to the participating projects and mentees, there is a lack of awareness and input that comes back to the CNCF post the tenure of the mentorship.

The idea is to benefit from our efforts and ensure more participation from students and also more success stories to come out, to enable more student and project participation.

I want to kickstart this discussion around what we can do to ensure that these stories are going back to the community or we can get the most out of it.

The idea is to ensure that lfx mentees/mentors engage mandatorily in writing a blog or recording an on-demand webinar on completion of their tenure. This can be done by changing the guidelines on the mentee program itself or by engaging with the mentors to getting this done. And only declaring a mentee as passed after receiving the blog.

This is going to be a great way of involving students and ensuring more participation moving ahead. Also, might help us better our efforts in improving the program itself

Research direction

The issue does not mention any files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing the LFX and GSoC mentee-program guidelines and clarifying whether the change belongs in program policy, mentor engagement, or completion criteria; done would mean an agreed framework requiring a blog or on-demand webinar before a mentee is marked passed.
