DTR for Night Writer with Mark Van Akkeron
Guiding Questions to Define The Relationship:
What are your learning goals for this project?
Further explore the use of enumerables to accomplish the demands of the project.
What is your collaboration style? How do you feel about pair programming vs. divide-and-conquer approaches?
Given we feel confident in our respective abilities to get after it individually we've divided the tasks up into the writer and the reader. Divide and conquer it is.
How do you communicate best? How do you appreciate receiving communication from others?
Clear and open. Just stream of conciousness thoughts flowing back and forth. Danny's got a leg up on Mark with regard to overall ruby proficiency but Mark's been thru this Mod before and knows the nuance of navigating this type of project.
How would you describe your work style?
Independent with occasional check ins.
What do you need (resources, environment, communication) to do your best work?
Scheduling times to work together to tackle integration and other admin tasks as well as having independent time to allow for us to each dive into our own aspects of the project indvidiually. We think it's important in a group setting that all members have ownership of some aspect of the project and get after it.
What scheduling restraints do you have? What are your scheduling preferences?
Zip. Casual communication leading to collaborative meet ups as well as individual time.
What is your style for giving feedback? Does anything ever hold you back from giving feedback?
Be truthful, objective, but not harsh. Cold and clinical is fine if it's done with a hint of kindness attached to it.
What tools do you want to use to manage the project?
Github... starting to explore using Trello and Waffle.
How do you want the group to solve problems when members run into issues with features of the project?
Let them struggle for a bit and see if they can get after it (learning on their own) but then... TALK ABOUT IT!
How do you know if a project is successful? How can we achieve that as a group?
Per rubric, tasks are completed as requested. Per learning, stretching of the mind to meet the demands of this effort and take those new skills with us.
