    Who We Are

    The Oppia Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with the mission to provide high quality education to all. We do this through the creation and maintenance of our free-to-use platform, Oppia (https://www.oppia.org), the coordination of our passionate contributors, and the development of critical partnerships with NGOs in the communities we aim to serve.

    Where You Fit In

    Millions of children are not receiving the education they deserve. Of the 61 million children worldwide who cannot attend primary school, 17 million will never step foot into a school if trends continue. Students around the world face difficulties accessing quality education due to conflict, discrimination, and lack of teacher training - and, in the wake of COVID-19, millions more children are also seeing interruptions in their daily lives, stability, and education, which makes it even more difficult for them to get the education they need to succeed.

    We're looking for someone who has a keen eye for detail and the ability to think from a user’s perspective to ensure that the quality bar for the Oppia platform is upheld, so that we can continue to make education as accessible as possible for students around the world!

    Why Oppia is an Organization You Want to Work With

    • Oppia has served over 2,000,000 users.
    • Oppia focuses on effectiveness, and conducts rigorous user testing and RCTs to validate the lessons we offer. Learners using Oppia’s lessons have seen gains of 50+% from pre-test to post-test.
    • Oppia's contributors actively help to provide students around the world with basic education. Please seehttps://medium.com/@ebelubhuhiose/86b97283edf4 andhttps://medium.com/@ojobusayo99/6e783aaddb74 for examples of our current work.
    • Oppia has a community of hundreds of passionate volunteers from across the globe, so our meetings are held online at flexible times.

    What Our QA Testers Contribute

    • Conduct QA testing for each release.
    • File detailed bug reports with clear instructions to reproduce an error.
    • Collaborate with the release team and developers on the Github issue thread to ensure that the reported issues are fixed in a timely manner.

    Since we are a global, volunteer-run team, we also ask that you also be responsive to emails, so that the team can communicate effectively with each other!
