 ===== How will you help your students stay on schedule to complete their projects? =====
-Students will be guided by their mentors to keep on top of their schedule. Students will be asked to submit daily progress reports to the admin and the mentors (a few short lines) to explain what they have worked on and whether they have found any issues. This will help to pick up issues immediately by the admin and mentors along with constant feedback and assistance when required. The administrator will also have regular communication and meetings with the students to get their feedback on their experience and tackle any issues that are non-technical in nature.

We require students to have GitHub account and guide them to do frequent pull requests that will then get reviewed and finally merged directly to our master branch. We ask students to be available on Mumble chat while they are working, so that mentors, administrators and students can meet daily to discuss their progress especially in the beginning.

+Students are invited and encouraged to become an integral part of our community, to participate not only in the weekly group meeting and weekly one-to-ones with their mentors but also to share their ideas, suggestions and feedback through our ticket system and our mailing list. Students will be given a full induction course so that they become familiar with our community and the tools that we use in order to feel more comfortable and at home within the community.
