Here are more ideas I’d find interesting:
- Import and export formats in Open edX: what data can be imported and exported (courses?, grades?, users? settings? messages? certificates?), and how: through CSV, APIs, custom export formats, …
- Upgrade paths for long version upgrades: how to deal with upgrading a server through different Open edX releases at the same time
- Open edX extensibility for beginners: how do the recent architecture changes regarding APIs and microfrontends affect Open edX customization: is it easier or hander for a beginner to develop new features?
- Replacing MongoDB by a SQL storage: after this PR
- Experiences in „Core contributor“: results achieved by OpenCraft and others during the time it has been part of the program
- Future of „Insights“ and analytics in Open edX: after „Insights“ gets deprecated
- How grading works in Open edX: types of grades (persistent or not, XBlock or not, etc.), how are they computed and updated, how to build complete grade reports, and what problems can appear. Also including the advanced grading options
- New ORA features: (ORA v3, BB-2429 etc.)
- Review of several simple XBlock used by clients
I won’t attend the conference, so I won’t propose any of these topics; feel free to rewrite them or mix them with other ideas.
