Pairing Session 4

Learning Goals

• Get to know another classmate and collaborate on technical work
• Fluently screen share, type in front of others, and communicate technical concepts

Prepare

Before meeting with your partner, identify 1-2 technical topics covered in Mod 0 that have been most challenging or interesting so far. Go back to those lessons and find a practice activity that you will Navigate for. Bookmark the link, or copy-and-paste the text in your notes app or a Slack DM to yourself; come prepared to the session ready to work on it!

Mini-DTR

Spend a few minutes getting to know each other and sharing what you selected for your pairing exercise. Then, decide who will Drive and who will Navigate first.

Exercises

No exercises are provided as you each brought exercises to the pairing session!

Reflection

Take a moment to reflect independently after this exercise.

• What are you proud of?
• How have you seen yourself grow over the course of these 4 pairing sessions?
• What is one thing you want to hold yourself accountable to during the final evaluation?

There is nothing to submit anything after completing this exercise, but let’s take a moment to spread some joy! Send your partner a quick DM in Slack sharing one action they took during this paired session that helped you. Use the evaluation rubric as a guide to give them some actionable positive feedback they can take with them into their final eval. You can choose to highlight their communication, collaboration or their technical skills!
