Group 5 Brainstorming:

Our Names: Zoë, Noa, Hanna

Q: What do we need in order to have this class feel like a safe, equitable, and productive space for learning?

• Guidance when you need help
• Constructive criticism
• Being able to fail forward

Q: Coding may sometimes feel frustrating and daunting. What could we do together, and what can be useful, to help us learn through problems?

• Giving feedback to one another
• Being about to share resources with eachother
• When questions arise, not being judged for asking

Q: A lot of coding is about gathering resources (Googling, referring to documentation, or looking at other people's work) you need and learning about it. But it's also important to be truly understanding the fundamentals, rather than copying someone else's code without understanding. What could we do, in our Studio projects or in our Lab homework, to make sure we're doing our best to show we're applying what we've learned?

• Valueing a strong foundation and the learning process to create it
• If there is a really compicated but cool code, talking with those more experienced to understand how it works
• Trying to restrain from just copying and pasting without thought
