What is GitHub Issue?
A GitHub issue, also known as a GitHub Ticket, closely resembles a Jira ticket, Trello card, or any other form of single-problem representation within an issue tracking system. We use GitHub because it’s public and free to use - browsing GitHub issues or boards doesn’t require an account. (A GitHub board mirrors a Jira or Trello board - offering a consolidated view of tickets.) For those new to GitHub, [this tutorial](https://docs.github.com/en/issues/tracking-your-work-with-issues/quickstart) could help you.

How can you get access to GitHub?
Anybody can create a GitHub issue, but only Open edX organization members can assign themselves to tickets or manage tickets on project boards. Product / Project Managers, and Working Group Members can gain access by following these steps:


Open [this link](https://github.com/openedx/axim-engineering/issues/new/choose)
Select “🔐 GitHub Request - Access/Config”
Complete the form: enter your GitHub username and specify that you need "Triage Access Level" to aid your contributions to the Product Working Group
Please be sure to promptly accept your invitation as it expires in 7 days

When can I expect my changes to be merged?

Our goal is to get community contributions seen and reviewed as efficiently as possible.

@MahnoorArbisoft when this is unpacked it's really messed up, I'm not sure what happened to your exported course here - you only changed one file, right? I can't actually see what you changed. Could you point to a course with the updated unit(s), or send screenshots?

Also your title of your PR says you changed the CC onboarding course, but the export is from the Intro to Open edX course - maybe that's the issue?

@cassiezamparini could you help me clarify where this updated text is supposed to be added?

@sarina Is there an easy way to see the course content somewhere on GitHub? Perhaps you can tell me what to do if it's easy enough. My memory of the course content is murky so I need a refresher for context. Or perhaps I should just look at the actual onboarding course, but I don't seem to have access to anymore (even tried resetting my password). Could you give me access?

@MahnoorArbisoft Do you have any ideas where this might best land (as you've done the course recently)?

You can download all the courses here: https://github.com/openedx/training-courses/tree/main/dist and import it into your instance.

I'm a bit confused as to what course this change is meant to go into.

@sarina This is for the Core Contributor Onboarding Course: https://training.openedx.io/courses/course-v1:OpenedX+NewCC+2024/about

I'll wait on @MahnoorArbisoft to comment before trying to import the courses into an instance (I'd need to learn how to do this -- it's a good thing to know). Having access to the actual learner view would be far easier and quicker for me.

I was confused because in this PR the Intro to Open edX course has been updated:

Do you have an instance you can import the course into to test it out? Otherwise I need the email address you have an account on the training sit ewith

@sarina I'm not sure why the intro would have been updated. @MahnoorArbisoft can you advise how you went about this / where you intended this to be added in the course?

sorry about the confusion. Not sure what went wrong here. I cant trail back to the issue either because i used our sandbox and that flushes the data everyday.

I added this text in "Finding meaningful work" unit of the course but since this was my first PR maybe i did something wrong in the process. I can make changes and export the course again -- would that make it easier?

@MahnoorArbisoft could you just clarify:

  • What course you intended to update
  • The name of the unit you wanted to update
