My daughter is fairly proficient in Python (only language she has been learning for a couple of years) and I'd love to get her to contribute to open source projects as a way to get real-world, team-collaboration exposure.
I thought I'd find open source mentorship programs online but to my surprise I found zero. I think young kids interested in CS majors will benefit from open source mentorship programs as a way to learn the craft and get real-world experience. I see so many college students reaching out for internships - instead, they should just contribute to open source!
Thoughts?
