'''Interactive training missions for learning essential open source collaboration skills. Learn how to make patches and chat on IRC, and help improve this community resource to spread free software culture.'''
'''Join a group of peers to collaboratively build a course on "peer production and commons theory". We believe that it is necessary to collect, sort, organize and create contents to teach and learn these topics in a better way. Help us to make it possible: a course on p2p topics created in a p2p way'''
 
Normally, people learn skills like IRC and patch contribution in ''public'' -- so newbies fear interactions with the community. We've built these free-software, online interactive experiences where you can play with the tools in a safe space. We want more people to ''try'' the training missions and ''help improve them'' -- by hacking on them, integrate them into their curricula, and help us minimize cultural bias.

===Summary===
===Summary===


Peer to Peer is mostly known to technologically-oriented people as P2P, the decentralized (or rather: distributed) format of putting computers together for different kinds of cooperative endeavor, such as filesharing, in particular for the distribution of music or audiovisual material. But this is only a small example of what P2P is: it's in fact a template of human relationships, a "relational dynamic" which is springing up throughout the social fields, more precisely where one finds 'distributed networks'. This dynamic is the one that made possible to develop Internet in the first beginning and enabled the Free Software existence. "Commons-based peer production", as Benkler puts it, is the fundamental base of the emerging forms of value creation and studying them is essential to understand our modern societies.

Peer production expresses itself in social processes such as peer production, peer governance, and universal common property regimes. It describe and explain the emergence of this dynamic as it occurs, and to place it in an evolutionary framework of succeeding modes of civilization.

We find the development of an open course on peer production and commons theory a very fascinating challenge. We believe that achieving a solid (but always free/open) course, unprecedented, with the support and partnership of worldwide references in peer based production and commons theory, would become an essential reference in those fields and allow more educational institutions  and more people to study and teach on these topics.
