Time to Move

Okay, you’ve stretched out and are ready for the semester. Remember this is a learning processed driven by each student individually but within a group context including myself the instructor. This is what you should be thinking about:

  • Do you have your Blog setup with an initial post? Perhaps you want to create a category for this course like tc101.
  • Do you have Twitter setup? Do you know how to search for and follow our course tag of #TC101
  • Not as crucial yet, but you should also have GitHub setup to use during this course and the rest of your career.
  • Now that you have those three setup, please go register those locations at this link.
  • You should be started programming in Python and following some resource that works for you to give you structure to your learning and meeting the mastery topics.
  • Remember to blog about each mastery topic as well as any other blogging idea that comes to you. Feel free to use your blog for non-course activities but if you do choose that, please let Ken know and dedicate a category (like #tc101) to your course posts.
  • You are responsible for your learning here but should be receiving meaningful feedback on progress and direction from myself as your instructor. Your goal should be (at least) three visits with Ken (inside office or outside, but outside class time). You can reserve time with Ken at this link.
  • Oh, have fun too.
