Northern Arizona University received a $498,616 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Undergraduate Education under the STEM Education (formerly Education and Human Resources) federal grant program (CFDA 47.076). The grant will fund the development of an online learning environment called OSS-Doorway to support undergraduate students in making initial non-coding contributions to open-source software projects. The university aims to investigate using authentic open-source projects to engage students in real software engineering scenarios and help them build skills and experience through non-technical contributions. Specifically, the project will create a structured learning path within OSS-Doorway that begins with documentation, typographical corrections, and translations before progressing to code-based and technical contributions. The three-year grant commencing July 1, 2023 will also assess the feasibility of OSS-Doorway for supporting learning about open-source contribution processes and expanding participation from groups historically underrepresented in STEM fields.
