Final Reflection 1.3 - Programming Difficulties
[Suggested due date is Monday, February 28 but please no later than Friday, March 4th]
By now you have:
- Written a long document on programming difficulties
- Met with some peers to discuss their thoughts on programming difficulties
- Written a combined report with some peers
I think it is helpful at this point to look back on the material ONE more time before you move on.
As you do so, I encourage you to not only review what your group wrote, but what the OTHER group wrote. Please check out their group deliverable in the Google Drive.
This need not be a long document. Perhaps only a page. But, as you think back on what you thought about, read about, and discussed last week, what jumped out at you? The goal is to learn something new. So you should be looking for things like:
- something new that you hadn't yet thought about
- a concept/idea where all/most of the groups had some common reflections
- finds something where you and another group(s) disagree
Your task is to report your understanding, particularly new learning/understanding. As appropriate, please identify the document(s) you are referencing in your discussion. If something occurs to you that is completely new (it isn't necessarily a new idea presented by another team but a new thought that was spawned from reading another report) report on that too.
Again, the idea here is to wrap up this topic with your final thoughts and, perhaps, insights gained by reviewing other's work. Make sure that your reflection is to the point and well organized in it's structure.
Submission
Give the file the name
- FR_1_3_LastName.pdf
And share to the appropriate folder in our shared Google Drive
Again, this is a binary grade, but I will assess your submission based on:
- Perceived quality of the reflection—does it appear that you spent time and thought in looking over other group work and thinking about it, e.g., informally comparing and contrasting it with your group's work, considering whether any differences are useful/important, etc.
- Identification of new learning (in the course, but particularly in this activity)
- Effectiveness of communication—can we understand what you wrote; is it presented effectively; is it without obvious omissions; (to a lesser extent) does it lack spelling and grammatical issues; etc.
- Addressing the indicated elements
- Completing the work on time and following naming specifications (to a much lesser extent :-)
