eBeth's feedback on the new prebuild proposal

New page

* Online tests for identifying parts on a motherboard and card types could be very helpful for the random connectors (AT keyboard) and card slots (ISA, EISA, VESA, and MCA slots and cards). I don't know how hard it would be to create a test like that, but it would give us a better idea of who is really learning and who needs more time.

Card sorting as it is now serves to functions:
# teaches volunteers how to identify card types, connectors and all that
# puts cards in order so that advanced testing and store can get what they need

Both of these objectives are very necessary and card sorting currently serves both of them well (in the opinion of eBeth).

 Sorting is right now more about educating than it is about production. The proposal is to pretty much increase that educational part to include more stuff that is learned in case management.
