Research direction

Start with the mentored pair programming guide linked in the issue, then use the Scheduling links in the #cyf-pair-programming Slack canvas or post in the channel if no times are available. Done means completing the weekly session, bringing a problem, and explaining your thought process while planning, writing, and checking the code.

Description

Every week you should have a pair programming call. This is an opportunity for you to work on a problem with a mentor together, getting support, and practice breaking down and solving problems.

If your region has education team support, you are expected to have a session with the education team every other week. In the other weeks, you should have a session with a volunteer.

You should come to the session with a problem to work on. We recommend a Codewars exercise, but it could be a backlog task, or a project you're working on.

See the mentored pair programming guide for guidance.

For education team sessions, you should already have a regular time booked. For volunteer sessions, book time with a volunteer using one of the Scheduling links in the #cyf-pair-programming slack channel's canvas. If there are no available times, please post in #cyf-pair-programming.

Remember, as a trainee, you will need to explain your thought process, plan out what to do, write the code and check it works.
