I want an environment that continues the same feeling of community I've felt while at Turing. I want to learn and grow into an experienced and skilled developer I want to learn skills and languages that I currently don't know

My Barriers:

I have trouble presenting myself in written form. Action: Start with one thing to talk about, break it down into easy chunks

I have trouble starting conversations

Setting Group Expectations

Group Member Names:

1. When are group members available to work together? What hours can each group member work individually? Are there any personal time commitments that need to be discussed?
   
   Work after class, set a goal to finish and work until we hit that goal. Some members may have to leave for a bit after class to take care of pets but will come back

2. How will group members communicate? How often will communication happen, and how will open lines of communication be maintained?
   
   Have a stand up before starting work each day. Communicate in an outspoken manner. Switch drivers/navigators regularly

How does the Agile model compare to the Waterfall model?

The Waterfall model is a linear and more rigid workflow model where the product is only presented at completion. Agile workflow is created and presented in small increments

Why do you think Agile is so popular in software development?

Agile can be adapted and changed based on client and industry changes much more easily and it is very important in the software industry to keep up with sudden changes

Do you think Agile is applicable to all industries?
