E-learning students, owing to not in direct coordination of their instructors, face lack of guidance to improve software designing and development skills. Software industry, due to lack of expertise and necessary skills, considers fresh graduates burden on their business. Students face difficulty to get a good job and mostly are exploited and offered less pay. Solution of these problems demands an environment where E-learning students, may have an opportunity to learn software development techniques like object oriented programming, database designing and UML modelling, by working with highly skilled and experienced professionals. In this paper authors based on their experience of about two years of working on AdempiereERP- an open source project, propose a methodology to groom programming skills of E-learning students by getting engaged them in open source projects.
