Date entered:

Course rating:
Fair
Most useful learnings:
I have no future as an embedded systems programmer. That last exercise was very confusing.
In all seriousness I learned that this can be practical if done right.
Concepts v exercises:
Not enough exercises
Presentation v discussion:
Too much presentation
Course improvements:
Many, shorter, focused exercises and topics. This felt too open and too long and too unstructured
Exercise rating:
Fair
Exercise improvements:
More structure, simpler and more focused
Instructor comments:
You have the right idea. The first day was great, but things got more complex and unstructured way too quickly by the end.
Better prepared:
Moderately
Start tomorrow:
No (because something else very high priority got dropped in my lap) but as soon as that's taken care of I plan on applying TDD to our branch.
Challenges to applying:
Getting people to believe me, applying it to existing code I don't understand.
Other comments:
Remote did not help the process much, but a better class could make the effects negligible.
Legacy code workshop:
No
Recommend to others:
Only if improved
