Check-Ins

You will be required to create a check-in issue for each module. These check-ins are how you will share your individual progress with your classmates. Coaches, peers and HYF team will read your check-in to know how we can help you. Coaches will also use your Thursday Check-Ins to prepare for review calls and Sunday Class.

Module Check-in Issue Checklist

Your issue should have a title such as Elias: Agile Development, 4 weeks and make sure you go through these steps:

[ ] add yourself as assignee to it. [ ] add the labels check-in & week-x.  
[ ] add the appropriate milestone (eg. 2. Agile Development) [ ] add your
comment using the template on every Thursday

Issue Description

In the main issue description you will copy-paste the module’s learning objective checklist, and possibly a personal study plan. This will help you track your progress through the module and prioritize your study time.

Weekly Check-In

Every Thursday you will add a comment to your check-in issue summarizing your progress over the last week. You will need to write these sections in your comment using the given template:

• I Need Help with: What are you having trouble understanding? What parts of the homework are you struggling to complete?
• What went well?: What has been successful so far? have you learned and/or completed so far this week?
• What went less well?: What mistakes did you and/or your group make? What was difficult?
• Lessons Learned: What did you learn this week that you will take with you into next week? I can be technical, a mindset, a study habit, anything!

When you have posted your Thursday Check-in comment please add the week-x label to your issue, so we know it’s ready for review.

After reading your check-in, a coach or HYF team member will label it checked-x.

If you are blocked on something then a coach or classmate will get in touch to help you
