.py.rate.chnic sessions aka Prototyping2

General description

Andre Castro (talk) 12:05, 24 September 2018 (CEST) write into text:

  • collective work-sessions
  • each session dedicated to 2 projects, and led by 2 of you, whom organize the session
  • both first years will be participating in the .py.rate.chnic sessions
  • 2nd year students will organize

Prototyping planning document

Each session you will need a Prototyping planning document, which inlcudes:

  • title:
  • who:
  • format: workshop?hackthon?test session?book sprint?
  • short description:
    • what will happen?
    • why (relevance)?
    • outcome: what will be goal of the session
  • prerequisites: reading list, preliminary research, software installs

Deadline for prototyping planning document: Wednesday evening of the previous week.

Do not overload the participants with prerequisites PLEASE. The idea of these planning documents, is that the sessions can start quickly and be productive and fun, rather than a tedious 2hours' install session.

Format

The format of sessions can range from a

  • hackthon: where you ask the participants to explore a subject, through the development of a protypes, from give a starting point.
  • workshop: where you bring in a certain technology/prototype/... and ask others to develop or explore it. More focused on a approach and see what that approach can lead to
  • (book) sprints: where the group writes collaboratively a manual / research text / book / and produces a wbesite/pdf/...
  • test session: where a given procedure/methos is tested on the participants and at the end feedback is given
  • ...others or combinations of these
