Coding Documentation  Research

Description 

  • project scope

  •  

    • Employ Learning Tokens to register and certify attendance, learning scores, and engagement in Hyperledger Special Interest and Working Groups, Virtual Meetups and Workshops, Webinars of local Meetups, or Regional Chapters.

    • Document this experience for application in a future phase to Hyperledger projects use, collaboration, and maintenance.

  • overall objectives

  •  

    • To reflect everyone’s engagement with proof of collaboration at every event.

    • To gather such proofs in skill wallets of expertise.

    • To match expertise profiles with the market demands for talent.

    • To provide KPIs for data-driven decision-making.

  • problem/opportunity in need of effort

  •  

    • Open-source projects thrive in communities with transparent collaboration, active engagement, and shared knowledge. Formal courses and community events are vital for such purposes.However, although courses certify competencies, they lack a granular registry of skill acquisition, and community events, for the time being, have neither granular recognition of engagement nor formal proof of collaboration.

  • probable implementation path to explore and fix the problem

    • Learning Tokens provide a much-needed currency of expertise to represent the granularity of skill acquisition with an open-source mechanism that uses the composable Token Taxonomy Framework (TTF) of the InterWork Alliance Initiative (IWA) of the Global Blockchain Business Council (GBBC) to recognize, register, and certify skills acquisition and competencies while rewarding community engagement in collective learning.

    • Learning Tokens result of the Hyperledger Mentorship Program 2023, expands on the 2022 mentorship, and continues the work at the Hyperledger Lab with the same name.

  • provide sufficient details

 

Learning Objectives

  • Appreciate the relevance of community building for the open-source culture by interacting with all groups of Hyperledger.

  • Understand the importance of employing granular units of competency for planning, conducting, measuring, and evaluating learning processes.

  • Apply a research orientation and problem-solving capacity to generate multiple solutions.

  • Grasp fundamentals of DLT, programming tools, data structures, personal privacy and governance principles.

  • Use API integration of smart contracts.

Expected Outcome and Deliverables

  • Introduction, early June

  • First Phase, Oracles, three months, June, July, and August.

  • Second Phase, Registry of Trust, one month, September.

  • Third Phase, Skill Wallets, two months, October and November.

Relation to Hyperledger and Impact on the community

  • Participants in Hyperledger Special Interest and Working Groups, Virtual Meetups and Workshops, local Meetups or Regional Chapter events would have proof of engagement and collaboration.
