In our curriculum, we give preference to MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) style courses because these courses were created with our style of learning in mind.
## Becoming an OSS student
To officially register for this course you must create a profile in our [web app](https://ossu.firebaseapp.com).
> **"How can I do this?"**
Just create an account on GitHub and log in with this account in our web app.
The intention of this app is to offer for our students a way to track their progress, and also the ability to show their progress through a public page for friends, family, employers, etc.
In the "My Progress" tab, you are able to edit the status of the courses that you are taking, and also add the link of your final project for each one.

**If the course isn't open, do it anyway with the resources from the previous class.**
**OBS:** If the course is not open, do it with the archived resources or wait until next class is open.
### How to track and show your progress
1. Create an account in [Trello](https://trello.com/).
1. Copy [this](https://trello.com/b/9DPXYv5f) board to your personal account. See how copy a board [here](http://blog.trello.com/you-can-copy-boards-now-finally/).
Now that you have a copy of our official board, you just need to pass the cards to the `Doing` column or `Done` column as you progress in your study.
We also have **labels** to help you have more control through the process. The meaning of each of these labels is:
- `Main Curriculum`: cards with that label represent courses that are listed in our curriculum.
- `Extra Courses`: cards with that label represent courses that was added by the student.
- `Doing`: cards with that label represent courses the student is current doing.
- `Done`: cards with that label represent courses finished by the student. Those cards should also have the link for at least one project/article built with the knowledge acquired in such course.
- `Section`: cards with that label represent the section that we have in our curriculum. Those cards with the `Section` label are only to help the organization of the Done column. You should put the *Course's cards* below its respective *Section's card*.
- `Extra Sections`: cards with that label represent sections that was added by the student.
The intention of this board is to provide for our students a way to track their progress, and also the ability to show their progress through a public page for friends, family, employers, etc. You can change the status of your board to be **public** or **private**.
