2024-09-04 Documentation WG Meeting notes

10am-10:09am

WG Goal / Formation Recap

• Discussed origins of the WG, from Open edX conference

  • The exact comment voted on at the conference was: How can we substantially improve the documentation? (25 votes, the most voted topic)

    • there were several cases of people wanting to use Open edX but it was cumbersome to figure out where to start

    • easy access / reference was also an issue (how to find certain things, etc.)

10:09-10:12

Documentation Funding possibility

Perhaps Axim would be able to support educator documentation improvements but there are many other segments / groups

(Not a commitment, just flagging that not all needs can be covered

10:12:- 10:16

Documentation Challenges limit Platform growth

Many documentation challenges exist, including helping new people to the platform / ecosystem get started

Developers, adopters, educators, etc - lots of different segments and needs
