The goal of the program is not to produce working code, working code is a by-product of the goal. The goal of the program is to learn how to create working code.
Diagnostics:
Diagnostics will be given regularly, and are designed to reflect recently-covered material
These diagnostics scores will not impact your completion; they are a tool for you and us to gauge your comprehension of the material
Don't stress out about these diagnostics, and don't obsess over the results
Practice:
Practice will be assigned semi-regularly, and will be assessed in terms of:
Code quality (e.g. indentation, good comments, readability, clear naming conventions)
Functionality (Does it run correctly? Is it robust? Is it efficient?)
However, as important as doing your practice work is, remember that the most important thing is what you're learning.
Professionalism:
We will treat you like adults and expect you to behave like adults. Disagreements with other students should be resolved on your own.
As with every rule, there are exceptions. If any student is behaving in a way that is disrespectful and/or dangerous towards their fellow developers, that should be brought to the producer's attention immediately. Similarly, any issues that involved consultants should be brought to the producer's attention
Independence:
We will do our best to train you with everything we can in the time we have. However, the ultimate responsibility for what you learn lies with you.
If you're having trouble with material, ask questions. See out consultants outside of class. Find extra tutorials online.
If you're ahead, ask for more work!
Attendance:
