## Final project
422422

423-
OSS University is project-focused.
423+
Part of learning is doing.
424424
The assignments and exams for each course are to prepare you to use your knowledge to solve real-world problems.

426-
After you've gotten through all of Core CS and the parts of Advanced CS relevant to you, you should think about a problem that you can solve using the knowledge you've acquired.
427-
Not only does real project work look great on a resume, but the project will also validate and consolidate your knowledge.
428-
You can create something entirely new, or you can find an existing project that needs help via websites like

[First Timers Only](https://www.firsttimersonly.com/).

After you've completed Core CS and the parts of Advanced CS relevant to you,
427+
you should identify a problem that you can solve using the knowledge you've acquired.
428+
You can create something entirely new, or you can improve some tool/program that you use and wish were better.

Students who would like more guidance in creating a project may choose to use a series of project oriented courses. Here is a sample of options (many more are available, at this point you should be capable of identifying a series that is interesting and relevant to you):

### Evaluation
448-
449-
Upon completing your final project:
450-
- Submit your project's information to [PROJECTS](PROJECTS.md) via a pull request.
451-
- Put the OSSU-CS badge in the README of your repository!
452-
[![Open Source Society University - Computer Science](https://img.shields.io/badge/OSSU-computer--science-blue.svg)](https://github.com/ossu/computer-science)
453-
454-
- Markdown: `[![Open Source Society University - Computer Science](https://img.shields.io/badge/OSSU-computer--science-blue.svg)](https://github.com/ossu/computer-science)`
455-
- HTML: `<a href="https://github.com/ossu/computer-science"><img alt="Open Source Society University - Computer Science" src="https://img.shields.io/badge/OSSU-computer--science-blue.svg"></a>`
456-
- Use our [community](#community) channels to announce it to your fellow students.
457-
458-
Solicit feedback from your OSSU peers.
459-
You will not be "graded" in the traditional sense — everyone has their own measurements for what they consider a success.
460-
The purpose of the evaluation is to act as your first announcement to the world that you are a computer scientist
461-
and to get experience listening to feedback — both positive and negative.
462-
463-
The final project evaluation has a second purpose: to evaluate whether OSSU,
464-
through its community and curriculum, is successful in its mission to guide independent learners in obtaining a world-class computer science education.

### Cooperative work
467-
468-
You can create this project alone or with other students!
469-
**We love cooperative work**!
470-
Use our [channels](#community) to communicate with other fellows to combine and create new projects!

### Which programming languages should I use?
473-
474-
My friend, here is the best part of liberty!
475-
You can use **any** language that you want to complete the final project.
476-
477-
The important thing is to **internalize** the core concepts and to be able to use them with whatever tool (programming language) that you wish.
