Open the prework gist you created earlier, and answer these questions about the reading in your gist:

On a website, what is the purpose of HTML code? The purpose is to tell the browser about the information that sits between the HTML elements. Or essentially provides some format and structure to basic text that the browser translates into a coherent webpage

What is the difference between an element and a tag? An element is a container and the tag is what comprises and forms said container.

Why do we use attributes in HTML elements? Attributes provide additional information and utility on the element, such as with links, forms, images, etc.

Pick out 3 behaviors that resonate with you in the list and describe why they resonate with you in a reflection (4-6 sentences).

Stick-to-itiveness - Learning something new is always a challenge, and while some are easier than others, it is that very challenge that is in of itself intriguing. Seeing something new raises questions and potentially can fix problems better, once learned. I'm not sure how well that it will fit, but I think that having the jack of all trades mentality would be inherently more useful than being the absolute master of one. In essence, having more tools in your toolbox sounds better, and towards that end, continuing to learn about more tools and pushing yourself to do so is key.

Say I don't know - The ability to acknowledge lack of information is a big deal and one that I believe is underwhelming known. I have the tendency to say that more than most and then also go seeking, to varying degrees, to fill the gap I obviously have so that it could be better the next time. It is much the

Read two of the following articles/videos (we recommend all of them!) and reflect on these questions: why are we talking about empathy at a software development school? how can you develop the "skill" of empathy? and why should you care?

After reading the articles above, create a gist on Github and reflect (4-6 sentences) on the following prompts.

What role does empathy play in your life and how has it helped you? Empathy plays a large role in that I try to better understand the other person, problem, situation, etc. so that I can learn from it. Many times the issue isn't what is immediately happening, but rather the lead up to the issue and being able to look at what caused it, and focusing on that instead, which the better understanding of helps immensely. At my previous job it helped me to related to others so that we could find a common ground, and then from there best decide on a course of action that would allow them to be as productive as they hoped to be. In my personal life, it has helped me to

Storytelling Reflection

1. Describe your 3-act arc by answering these three questions in 1-2 paragraphs:

• Who are you: Consider describing:

  • How your values and perspective have driven you to come to Turing
  • Your Pairin themes
  • How you've seen yourself grow during this module at Turing

• I am someone who likes to be challenged and enjoy the opportunities that affords. Coming to Turing has offered a challenge that throughout my weeks here has dynamically changed along with me to be an ever evolving problem to tackle that is both intriguing and humbly frustrating. Starting from a point where I felt comfortable in week 1 to a broader understanding of the larger scope of what I have yet to learn is overwhelming, however as I have progressed through these first weeks I have noticed less of a concern as to what the next problem is and more of an emphasis on what problems I am currently facing. With each new day I am finding the struggle to both be difficult and rewarding in different ways t

Pair-to-Pair Code Review

5 mins

• Get together with your group and send a link of your team's GitHub Repo to the pair that is reviewing your project.
• Look over this guide with your project partner and highlight the pieces where your team can use assistance/you would like your reviewers to take a closer look. Fork this gist and send the forked copy over to the pair reviewing your code.

45 mins

• Follow the instructions to clone down the repo you are given and start reviewing the codebase. Take notes for written feedback.

What we would like reviewed

where would you see places where JQuery would help?

you can use jQuery, or also alternatively build in a helper function to do what you would like it to do i.e. buildBoxWith('width', 'height', 'other things') {};

How's our classes looking, planning on using DailyDouble Class and then Round3 as a sub class.

consider using a method to run methods within a class instead of chaining methods inside one another

Any unintuitive gameplay that glares out.

after round 3, doesn't appear to show a winner?
