像黑客松这样有时间限制的活动已经成为一种全球现象。特别是科学界，对组织它们以吸引新来者和开发技术工件来扩展其代码库的兴趣越来越大。目前的黑客方法假设参与者有足够的专业知识来独立完成项目。他们只是偶尔提供领域专家作为导师的支持，这对新人来说可能不够。借鉴工作场所和教育指导的工作，我们开发并评估了一种方法，即每个黑客团队都由一名社区成员提供支持，该社区成员担任导师角色，而不仅仅是提供偶尔的支持。评估这种方法，我们发现，那些拥有项目所有权的团队，在与导师建立社会关系的同时尽早设定可实现的目标，并接受以学习为导向的支持，报告了与项目相关的积极看法，并对组织黑客活动的科学界产生了更大的兴趣。因此，我们的工作有助于我们理解黑客松中的指导，这是一个尚未被广泛研究的领域。它还为科学界吸引和融入新来者提出了一个可行的方法，这对他们的长期生存至关重要。
Time-bounded events such as hackathons have become a global phenomenon. Scientific communities in particular show growing interest in organizing them to attract newcomers and develop technical artifacts to expand their code base. Current hackathon approaches presume that participants have sufficient expertise to work on projects on their own. They only provide occasional support by domain experts serving as mentors which might not be sufficient for newcomers. Drawing from work on workplace and educational mentoring, we developed and evaluated an approach where each hackathon team is supported by a community member who serves in a mentor role that goes beyond providing occasional support. Evaluating this approach, we found that teams who took ownership of their projects, set achievable goals early while building social ties with their mentor and receiving learning-oriented support reported positive perceptions related to their project and an increased interest in the scientific community that organized the hackathon. Our work thus contributes to our understanding of mentoring in hackathons, an area which has not been extensively studied. It also proposes a feasible approach for scientific communities to attract and integrate newcomers which is crucial for their long-term survival.
