Day 11 – Tu, Feb 12th, 2013¶
Rough schedule for today, summary:
- brief discussion of group work
- work on HW; ask questions; etc.
- minute cards
Group work¶
The homeworks are only going to get longer and more difficult. Wouldn’t it be nice to work on it with others?
For this next homework (and hopefully for the rest), we would like to encourage you to get together with other people, both in and out of class. We expect to see three different kinds of work behavior –
- Lone wolf. This individual prefers to not work with others, and except for explicit group projects, can do so.
- Pair programming. Two individuals working through the homework together, but submitting commits separately through github. If only one person is doing the commits, that’s fine; just make sure to note that you were working in pairs.
- Group work. Here, individuals can work independently on the projects, and then merge afterwards. As long as the authors are noted properly on the commits (you should see them with ‘git log’, in other words) I encourage this mode of work. Please, however, do the merges by yourself.
Work on the homework¶
See HW #3 in Homework #3; go to town. Feel free to ask questions.
Minute Cards¶
In the last 5 minutes of class, please fill out this minute card survey.
