Hello GSoC mentors,
We are pleased to announce Google Code-in (GCI) 2018 [1], the 9th
consecutive year of our contest for pre-university students ages 13-17.
Please be aware GCI will start about a month earlier this year than in
previous years - the contest starts for students October 23rd!
The GCI timeline, FAQs, Rules and flyers have been updated on the
contest site [1].
Organizations -- If you would like to apply for the 2018 program please
start thinking about the tasks you would like students to work on and
reach out to your community members to ask if they would like to be
mentors for the program. ORGANIZATION APPLICATIONS OPEN FOR GCI ORGS
next week on Thursday, September 6th, and close less than 2 weeks later
on Monday, September 17th. We will announce organizations on Tuesday,
September 18th giving orgs 5 weeks to create their tasks before the
contest begins on October 23rd.
The major changes for GCI 2018 are:
*
Orgs will evaluate the 20 students completing the most tasks with their
org when deciding on finalists and winners
*
Orgs will choose 6 finalists (instead of 5)
*
We have renamed the User Interface category to Design
*
Students will have to wait until Google reviews their Parental Consent
form before they can claim their first task. This will slow things down
but it is a requirement to be able to continue the program.
*
No tasks asking for personal information about students will be allowed
(this includes tasks asking for students to introduce themselves with
info like what country they are from, or photos of the students, etc.).
We are looking to continue the growth of this program and reach a record
number of teenagers this year! Read more on today’s blog post [2].

Best,
Stephanie and Mary
