Student Operation

Students will *fork- the class repository

It's advisable that students first make an new organization in Github (perhaps called '401-js-their-name') that these repositories can be created in, to organize things better.

ASSIGNMENTS

  • READING (Due before each lecture)

    • Reading assignments should be done as articles/notes in the *wiki- of their repo fork
  • LAB Assignments (4 per module)

    • 10 Points (graded on the rubric)
    • ~ 3-5 Hours
    • Should be completed in a new repository for each day
    • Generally, these are smaller implementations, refactors, and practice to support the lecture concept. Not necessarily a full-scale application.
    • Code must be tested through GitHub Actions and deployed through either Heroku or AWS
    • JS Code must be documented with JSDoc
    • Students must use the README.md template (from the resources folder) to complete their assignment
    • The README requires working links to deployed code, GitHub Actions tests, functional documentation, test documentation and a UML and/or data-flow diagram.
  • DS&A IMPLEMENTATION

    • 10 Points (complete/incomplete)
    • Installed at the root level of your data-structures-and-algorithms repository
    • These will be used as libraries to solve code challenges
  • DS&A CODE CHALLENGE (4 per module)

    • 5 points (3 points for whiteboard, 1 point for testing, 1 point for working code)
    • Generally requires a working implementation (above) to work
    • TimeBox execution to ~ 1 Hour
  • END OF EACH BLOCK

    • New Data Structure (as noted above): Modules 1,2,3 & 6,7,8
    • Project Group Prep: Modules 4 and 8
    • Generally Paired
    • Takes the learnings/components/modules from the previous 4 classes and has the students assemble them into a larger/full-scale application.
