jelkner | Hello fkoikoi and tboimah | 11:55 |
---|---|---|
tboimah | Good morning Jeff | 11:55 |
fkoikoi | Good morning Jeff | 11:55 |
jelkner | Let's wait 4 minutes for our stand up meeting, to give anyone else who plans to participate time to arrive | 11:56 |
jelkner | i will only have 10 minutes | 11:56 |
jelkner | since i am in between semesters and have a lot to do | 11:56 |
jelkner | did you see my email about the program i wrote to choose random groups? | 11:57 |
tboimah | Yeah i saw that | 11:57 |
fkoikoi | yes | 11:58 |
jelkner | i would encourage you to study it, tboimah, and to "play with it", like Kevin described in his emails | 11:58 |
jelkner | that's how you really learn to program | 11:58 |
jelkner | Python is super cool! | 11:58 |
tboimah | Okay | 11:58 |
jelkner | it let me make something like this in about and hour | 11:58 |
jelkner | a very useful tool | 11:58 |
jelkner | and fun to make | 11:58 |
jelkner | ok | 12:01 |
jelkner | it's time | 12:01 |
jelkner | so, tboimah and fkoikoi, we didn't meet the goal for January | 12:02 |
jelkner | so the question is, are you ready to adjust plans and work to meet the goal in February? | 12:02 |
fkoikoi | yes | 12:03 |
jelkner | great, tboimah, you too? | 12:03 |
tboimah | +1 | 12:03 |
jelkner | excellent | 12:03 |
jelkner | so, here is what i propose: | 12:03 |
jelkner | i will be willing to fund up to 2 attempts at PCEP this month | 12:03 |
jelkner | if we get a pass, you will earn your stipend at the beginning of March | 12:04 |
jelkner | i recommend you figure out who is closest to passing | 12:04 |
jelkner | it may be tboimah taking it again | 12:04 |
jelkner | i don't know | 12:04 |
jelkner | that is up to you | 12:04 |
jelkner | but as i wrote to scooper | 12:05 |
jelkner | i am a bit frustrated you never sent me scores from practice tests | 12:05 |
jelkner | it took me many hours to make those practice tests | 12:05 |
jelkner | and they are potentially a huge help | 12:05 |
jelkner | i gave them to my students | 12:05 |
jelkner | and the students who scored above 20 out of 30 on one of those practice tests | 12:06 |
jelkner | (timed, of course, so they had to do it in less than 40 minutes) | 12:06 |
jelkner | always passed the PCEP | 12:06 |
jelkner | i now have 18 of 32 students who have passed | 12:06 |
tboimah | yeah we been do that here too but too bad we did not send you our score | 12:06 |
tboimah | *doing* | 12:07 |
jelkner | ok, you don't have to send me the score | 12:07 |
jelkner | what is important is that you know where you all are | 12:07 |
jelkner | so, did anyone score 20 or higher in less than 40 minutes? | 12:07 |
tboimah | yeah | 12:07 |
jelkner | who? | 12:08 |
tboimah | when I, scooper and mulbah was doing that i score above 20 | 12:08 |
jelkner | so then you should be the one to take it | 12:08 |
jelkner | you said you ran out of time | 12:08 |
tboimah | that is the group suggestion | 12:09 |
jelkner | that means you need to increase your speed | 12:09 |
tboimah | i can not go by myself | 12:09 |
jelkner | so, tboimah, i suggest you take it again | 12:09 |
jelkner | what do you mean? | 12:09 |
tboimah | only if the team agree | 12:09 |
tboimah | for me to go again | 12:09 |
jelkner | yes, i understand | 12:09 |
jelkner | it is a group decision | 12:09 |
tboimah | like i told you the other day i did not want bad feeling | 12:10 |
tboimah | amoung the group | 12:10 |
jelkner | i imagine not getting a stipend will cause "bad feelings" too | 12:10 |
jelkner | so the group needs to decide | 12:10 |
jelkner | i'm laying down what i am willing to do: | 12:10 |
tboimah | yeah that is the group decision to make | 12:11 |
jelkner | 1. I am willing to fund up to two additional attempts at PCEP during the month of February ($59 each) | 12:11 |
fkoikoi | no one will feel bad tboimah because we all are working together as a team to achieve our goal | 12:11 |
fkoikoi | and that goal is to pass the PCEP | 12:11 |
jelkner | 2. If someone passes, I will send the usual stipend, $800, on March 1st | 12:11 |
jelkner | after that I will ask for someone else to pass in March | 12:12 |
jelkner | but let's take this one step at a time | 12:12 |
jelkner | so, it's 7:12 and i have to get to grading | 12:12 |
jelkner | tboimah, *please* make use of Kevin's time today | 12:12 |
jelkner | Good morning gabriel | 12:12 |
jelkner | or good afternoon, rather | 12:12 |
tboimah | Okay Jeff | 12:12 |
jelkner | ok, i have to go | 12:12 |
gabriel | how're you jeff | 12:13 |
