Tangible contributions

These contribution categories involve the provision of educational materials in some form. In order to submit materials via any of these routes, please make sure that you are the owner of the material’s copyright (if there is one), and that you have the right to grant Chronic Learning permission to make the materials available for general use.

All materials provided through this project will include the proper attribution(s) to the original creator(s), and will be shared using an open-access license. Details about the licenses can be found in the Licensing page, or in the licenses/ directory in the GitHub repository.

Submission of original content

This contribution method is for materials that are not published anywhere else. Fill out our upload request form with your information and details of what you want to contribute, and we’ll get in touch with upload instructions!

Submission of, or linking to, existing content

This contribution method is for materials that are part of an existing project. Get in touch with the maintainer(s) of Chronic Learning to discuss whether uploading your materials to your platform, or adding a link from Chronic Learning’s site to your own would be more suitable.

Submission of components for materials

This contribution method is for graphics or explanations of concepts that you would like to contribute, but that would benefit from the addition of graphics or explanatory text. These will be passed to a pool of contributors to turn them into complete educational materials. To contribute this way, fill out our upload request form with your information and details of what you want to contribute, and we’ll get in touch with upload instructions!

Join the Content Creation Team

If you want to contribute, but are primarily interested in one aspect of content creation, such as image/graphic design, or maybe you have a real knack for explaining concepts, join the Content Creation Team and focus on what you enjoy doing! You can work on turning components uploaded by others or created by other team members into completed materials. To contribute this way, get in contact with the project maintainer(s) at baileythestudent@gmail.com.

Intangible contributions

These categories of contributions involve other forms of participation in the project. If you would like to contribute via one of these routes, get in touch with the project maintainer(s) at baileythestudent@gmail.com.

Serve as a peer reviewer

In order to ensure the integrity, accuracy, and accessability of our educational materials, we need people with relevant expertise to review them. Reviewers might provide feedback on continuity, clarity, accuracy, or accessability (including whether the information is too technical, or whether images/graphics are accessible for colour-vision impaired individuals).

Act as a project adviser

We are always looking for ways to improve this project, so if there are ideas you have that could make it easier to use, or increase its usefulness, please let us know!
