Good Evening Thoth Tech
Here is this week's update from your friendly neighbourhood leadership team.
You should be starting to feel more comfortable with GitHub this week – if not please watch the Github workshop session; it’s valuable to review if you are new to all things git!
Your team Trello board should be continuing to fill out. This week there should be a focus on task assignment, analysis of existing repos to understand the full scope of work, upskilling requirements, research and planning.
Start to think about your individual retrospectives; what evidence do you have so far? What do you want to learn more of? Are there any areas you think you need to work on?
D/HD aiming students should also be thinking about and working on their 5.1 task. If you feel like you may not be meeting the standard or want to get a better understanding, talk to leadership about how we can give you more responsibility/opportunities/help you understand. Note there are 4 tasks due on the same day for HD students.
There are also upcoming opportunities for D/HD students in the pipeline – watch this space!
All OnTrack tasks now have task sheets and resources where applicable. Note that any tasks that start with “Company” are group, company-wide submissions; the rest are individual. All employees by now should have reviewed the rubric to ensure they understand what they need to do for their desired grade. If you want to chat about requirements – reach out.
We will also be releasing a Quality Assurance document this week with guidelines on branching and commit etiquette.
Thank you for all your continuing work, and have a great week!
