This role refers specifically to those community members with admin permissions for one or more courses on a tCRILAxim-hosted Open edX instance. Admin permissions are defined as permissions which allow you to view sensitive learner information such as learner email addresses, learner course grades, and problem submissions. A person with an in-course designation of “Community TA” does not fall under this umbrella but rather would fall under the “Forum moderators” CC distinction.

    • The Transifex Working Group with assistance from Eden will serve as champion for and oversight of Translators.

    • We could build out a QA function organically and have a QA Working Group oversee team efforts

    • Marketing WG with assistance from Eden serves as champion/oversight of Marketing CCs

    • Project managers will likely not need champions, but rather points of contact at tCRIL Axim and possibly within other community member orgs necessary to carry out their work

    • Product managers will work alongside a 2U/edX or tCRIL Axim “champion”, likely the person they work most closely with for a given project or someone acting in a bit of a mentorship-like capacity
