For our final exercise, everyone is going to:
- Choose a topic that they can teach in 10 minutes or less.
- Write that lesson.
- Submit it as a pull request to our GitHub repository.
- Review other people’s pull requests, and respond to reviews of theirs.
- Once their lesson has been accepted, teach it live online.
We’d like people to pick topics by Friday March 28, and to have lessons ready to teach by mid-April, but we recognize that end-of-semester madness is coming up, so we’ll run the live lessons when and as folks are ready.
