Description

Any bilinguals (English-Spanish)? this is your cup of tea and you can help a great project!
I'm a volunteer at the Carpentries (Software and Data carpentry https://software-carpentry.org/ and http://datacarpentry.org/) our goal is to teach researchers basic programming skills to be able to do their research more efficiently. These two are non for profit organisations, which you are more than welcome to join. Recently, we had an open call https://software-carpentry.org/blog/2017/09/latin-am-lessons.html to grow our community in LatinAmerica. One of the goals is to translate and maintain versions of each lesson in Spanish! As an Open Access, Open Education and Open research project this also fits well with another project I am part of Ekpaplek (http://ekpapalek.com/) where I am a mentor for students in LatinAmerica who want to do research abroad. This is to show that many researchers in LatinAmerica will benefit from this lessons translated, and all your work will be mentioned as contributor.

What are we working on during the do-a-thon? What kinds of support do we need?

You can help to

• Review the already translated lessons (Git and shell).
• Work with translating the R lesson.
• Joining as after the do-a-thon, we need not your translation skills, but we also need maintainers.

How can others contribute?

For this project, people should have fluent English and Spanish
We also need your motivation to learn, or if you are already a Git Master, we need you too!

This post is part of the OpenCon 2017 Do-A-Thon. More info, head here

We have 3 goals for today's do-a-thon, including a primary, secondary, and long-term goal.

1. Primary: Reviewing the recently translated lesson and submitting edits and suggestions.
2. Secondary: Write "empathy maps" or "learner profiles" for people in Latin America who want to learn to do reproducible research
3. Long-term: Brainstorm ideas for how to maintaining and improving lessons

It's also worth noting that we did write a blog post about how the do-athon contributed to our first batch of Spanish translations for Software Carpentries. https://software-carpentry.org/blog/2018/03/forlatinamerica.html
