@jrhorn424 I trashed this repo due to a fluster spiral and recovered from the local repo I'd recently pushed. Thought you should know why this issue is sparse.

@gaand Thanks for the note! I thought this was new material when I received the github notification. Much confusion ensued. :smile:

163 minutes actual (3.26). Did not start People Lab, nor anything after. Suggested Comparison Lab as an exercise to be completed by everyone during workshop.

Spent a lot of time reviewing JavaScript. Got distracted a bit by Ruby syntax (explaining instead of using).

Labs and Code-Alongs are good, but need starter code and a bit more scaffolding in some places. Please refer to the training (or demo) branche(s) for an idea of what to start with.

Got through all material sans bonus in ~200 minutes. More lab time could have been given (they're lengthy), and told them to focus on Ruby vs both Ruby and JS.

Another heavy review of callbacks necessary as reduce continues to be a source a confusion. Spent about 1 unit just working through how reduce works. I do not believe this was a waste; on the contrary, it was very valuable and paid dividends throughout the training.

Actual 225 minutes or 4.5 units (5). Could have ended at 190 minutes if I skipped the People lab.

In my opinion, this is probably around 4 units, and everything after the People lab should be made optional since we've only reached it in previous iterations about half the time.
