Susi Irwin - M1 Portfolio

Individual

Areas of Emphasis

This module's focus has been mainly on learning the basics of Ruby and Object-Oriented Programming, but also to get more comfortable as a Turing Student. I want to develop good, strong habits as well as best practices so that when I move into my new career I am capable of suceeding. I want to build my confidence and lessen my hesitence when it comes to writing Ruby and approaching new projects. Personally, I want to become a part of the Turing community and begin to utilize the resources afforded to me. I need to work on my speed when it comes to taking in the information and creating the corresponding code. My goal to find a mentor was met when I found Matt Rogers. I meet with him on a scheduled weekly basis but also one-off slack and facetime conversations.

##DTR Memo ##Project: Night Writer ##Group Member Names: Jasmin Hudacsek, Susi Irwin

###Project Expectations: What does each group member hope to get out of this project? Goals and expectations:

  • Jasmin - I’d like to establish a good paired workflow since I’ve never worked on a project like this with another person. Go teamwork! Susi - I hope to better understand enumerables and Arrays with this project. I am excited and a bit nervous for a Paired project as I have never done anything like this before using GitHub. As Jasmin says, Go teamwork!

###Schedule Expectations: When are we available to work together and individually?

  • Susi has a child so mornings are better, but she has worked it out with her husband to be able to stay late a few times a week if needed. I can stay after Tuesday and Wednesday this week and will work in the mornings individually. I get back on Slack around 8pm and can work until about 10pm.

Defining the Relationship (DTR) Questions:

  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?

Group Retro and Feedback

Retro

First, take about 30+ minutes and do a retro about your group experience. What's a retro? Think about our friday whole module retro - positives, negatives, and so-sos and actionable things you can improve to better the situation for next time. Here is a short read that may help define retros if you need a little more context. It may be helpful to revisit your DTR conversation too.
