I've taught over a dozen classes with the class room size averaging between 15-25 people. I'll be going over what Ive learned, and how I go about getting folks over their blockers. How to manage a class remotely, how to keep folks engaged, what material I've found to benefit people the most. You'll walk away with some insights to help to train new developers transition into the wonderful language that is elixir. • Timecodes 00:00 - 02:53 - Intro 02:54 - 04:07 - Try coding events 04:08 - 05:04 - How do computers even work? 05:05 - 05:23 - Today's tips 05:24 - 06:18 - How's Elixir come into this? 06:19 - 07:36 - #Tip 1 : Make sure people are interested 07:37 - 08:20 - #Tip 2 : Define goals 08:21 - 09:05 - #Tip 3 : Ask for help 09:06 - 11:23 - #Tip 4 : Agenda and Curiculum 11:24 - 16:24 - Functional fundamentals 16:25 - 22:08 - Elixir Intro 22:09 - 24:10 - #Hot Tip : Use your TA's 24:11 - 40:17 - QnA • Follow us on social: Website: https://codesync.global/conferences/code-beam-v-america-2021/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/CodeBEAMio • Looking for a unique learning experience?
