• Workshop name: Legacy Code Workshop
  • Course code: JHAP-1
  • Workshop days: 1.0
  • Your workshop: Half of the day was spent with one person's code being demo-ed. This took up too much time and I would have benefited more from a full day of trying it on my own and having the instructor available for questions. I spent most of the morning just getting the environment set up and getting a blank test to work, which would have likely gone faster if the instructor was able to answer my questions. We only had 2.5 hours to work on this (since there was more lecture after lunch). Not enough time of individual work to be called a workshop.
  • Better prepared: Moderately
  • How to improve: Provide a shorter demo in the morning. Expect students to spend time getting the environment set up. I needed much more hands-on experience than I was able to do.
