Structure

• Have a breakable toy side Rails project. It anchors your learning. Apply new skills/techniques here.
• Put the code in Github. Give mentors access to the project. They'll review your code.
• Understand the code review process and other style guidelines.
• Deploy your breakable toy to Heroku.
• Set learning goals weekly (e.g. X chapters of the Pickaxe, X Railscasts/week).
• Keep a text document (using vim) to record interesting commands/concepts/things you've learned.
• Review the text document daily for comprehension.
