In this MOSE Short segment Emily Lovell talks about her experience teaching at different academic institutions, both large and small. A small teaching school provides opportunities to be more agile and move faster to figure out what works best for students as well as the faculti, and to make it happen. Classes tend to be smaller, and students can often get a more hands on experience. Large, top-tier research-impact universities proivde an amazing platform to reach people to work with, along with publishing and making an impact with results. This often comes with the price of being more heavy on the processes, having less flexibility in programs and curriculums, and the pace may not always allow for the same experience as a school with smaller class sizes. However, there is always an opportunity to create programs that are designed to work closer with students, such as the Open Source Catalyst program that Emily is leading at University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC).<hr> Hosted on Acast.

The global open source ecosystem has millions of projects and observing and participating individuals, who are trying to find their ways to collaborate on activities and finding solutions to fulfill a shared mission. An ecosystem that large inevitably has challenges to remain a balanced, sustainable and welcoming environment. The My Open Source Experience Podcast collects and shares stories that describe people's experiences from their point of view. All experiences matter, the good, the bad, lessons that you've learned and challenges you still have. The hosts, Ildiko and Phil are talking to open source, veterans, newbies, their managers, and just really, anybody who is either already involved in the open source ecosystem, or would like to. This podcast is all about the individuals, their voices and their experiences and what they've been through ever since they started to think about or getting involved in open source.
