Node/DB - Lesson 1 #8

Open kabaros opened 7 years ago

kabaros commented 7 years ago

We think we'd probably base this on the NodeGirls workshop. Anyone care to take charge of getting the content and format it in our syllabus repo?

The workshop materials are here: https://github.com/node-girls/express-workshop.

I'll have a look at this.

@kabaros I have started working on draft for the first lesson https://github.com/Michael-Antczak/syllabus/blob/scotland/node-db/lesson1.md

I am still wondering if we should introduce them to AWS and use it for this module. I know it may be a lot too learn, but this is what the students may face in the job situation most likely. Plus, it would be to their advantage to be able to put it on their CV some familiarity with AWS. What do you think?

@Michael-Antczak so try to base your first class on the Node Girls format. We've tried and it worked great!

Regarding AWS, I don't think it's expexted from junior developers to know a lot about it. They will get exposure to heroku, which is much easier to grasp, and that would give an idea of what something like AWS is good for - beyond that, they could research, or we could give them extra classes, but it doesn't need to be a core class imo.
