== Rules of Engagement ==
== Rules of Engagement ==
{{MM}} are strongly encouraged to provide assistant to anyone who requests it.  The following guidelines must always be observed:
See [[Merlin Maven Engagement]]
* Always be '''courteous'''.  You are serving as a representative of {{CM}} and our values.
* Every interaction with a student '''matters'''.
* If a student is frustrated, '''empathize'''.  Be '''patient'''.  What might come easily to you is not necessarily easy for others.
== Tools of the Merlin Mavens ==
=== Chat and Helpme ===
1. In order to get started with helping others via chat, you'll first need to get your account set up. When you become a {{MMMR}}, you should have received an invitation to become a {{CM}} chat support agent. If not, then please open a support ticket. Once you do receive the email, you'll need to click on the link to verify your email and get your account set up.


2. Once you have your account set up, then be sure to visit the support agent web page when you're available to let the system know you're available to answer chats.
== Sashmojis ==
 
Sashmojis are a concise shortcut for specifying sashes and levels using only two characters.

3. Periodically check the "Unassigned" chats to see if a new chat was opened and nobody else is assisting them. '''Be sure to assign the chat to yourself (using the dropdown to the left of the "Resolve" button) to remove it from the "Unassigned" list'''. Once you start a conversation use the "/start" shortcut  (just type slash to get a list of available shortcuts) to display the start message.

4. If the individual has an issue that can be easily solved via chat, then you can do so via the chat interface.
 
5. Otherwise, if you need access to their terminal to provide additional support, then you can use the "/use-helpme" shortcut to provide instructions on how to get the ticket number.
 
6. Once you have the ticket number, use the <syntaxhighlight lang="bash" inline>helpme assistant assist [ticket number]</syntaxhighlight> command to connect to their terminal.

}}
 
 
7. Once you connect, send them the "/started-helpme" shortcut so they know you have successfully connected
 
8. You can now control their terminal (use {{SpecialKey|CNTRL|Y}} instead of {{SpecialKey|CNTRL|SPACE}} for screen commands in their terminal), but be sure to explain what you're doing in the chat.
 
9. Once the issue is resolved (or if you're unable to help with the particular issue), be sure to detach from their terminal session with {{SpecialKey|CNTRL|Y}} {{Key|d}}. Once you detach from the session, an emacs window will open where you can provide a description of the assistance you provided.
 
10. If the issue could not be resolved, ask them to open a support ticket to provide more in-depth assistance with the “/use-ticket” shortcut
 
11. Mark the conversation as resolved in the chat and unassign the conversation. Otherwise, the user will resume chatting with you when they open a new chat, even if you're not online, and will also not appear in the "Unassigned" tab which can lead to a frustrating experience for both parties.

Within these castle walls be forged Mavens of Computer Science ...
— Merlin, The Coder

Introduction[edit]

 Merlin Mavens™  is a special program of  Coder Merlin™  to bring recognition to dedicated and motivated students. Progress in the program requires both demonstration of expertise and service to the community.

As students demonstrate mastery of a topic they're awarded "wands" which are rendered as right-pointing chevrons. As students serve the community they're awarded "crystal shards" which are rendered as left-pointing chevrons. When both a wand and shard have been earned, students advance to the next level. After a series of levels have been earned students advance in the color of their sash.

Requirements for Demonstrating Mastery[edit]

Demonstration of mastery in each subject will occur through the successful completion of a Merlin Mission with a score of 90% or greater. In the case that the target score is not achieved, students may redo the Merlin Mission after no less than fourteen calendar days have elapsed.

Requirements for Service[edit]

Service requirements are based upon a points system,  Coder Merlin™  Service Points. Points are earned as follows:

  • 1 point for each ten minutes devoted to a helpme ticket assisting other students. Interaction must be documented in the helpme system. Partial points (at a resolution of 0.01) are awarded. A maximum of 2 points may be awarded per encounter.
  • 3 points for each new student enrolled by a  Merlin Mavens™  Mentor. Points will be awarded to the mentor when the student completes the mastery requirements for White Sash Level 1. Additional points may be earned by providing assistance to the student through helpme tickets. In order to qualify, notify the mentee to include your email address in the appropriate field when requesting an account.
  • 5 - 30 points for a wiki article. See Articles Wanted for an up-to-date list.
  • Points do not expire, however you must earn no less than three points per month to maintain your rank.

Special Powers[edit]

With great power comes great responsibility

 Merlin Mavens™  Mentors gain special powers, including:

  • Providing textual assistance via chatwoot
  • Remotely logging on to a user's terminal via a helpme request and ticket

Digital Badges[edit]

A digital badge is a visual symbol of achievement. Students can collect and share digital credentials that validate their skills and accomplishments, and send signals of success to networks that matter to them, such as Discord, Twitter, and Facebook.

For more information:

Program Application[edit]

Any current user of  Coder Merlin™  with an existing shell account may apply for acceptance using this application.
