- Non-technical peers are the best, as a lot of programming is done for non-technical users.
- When working alone, students might skip over programming the complex stuff.
- There will always be another person to come by with a fresh set of eyes to help you find small errors.
- It’s easy to make something pretty but when you get past the Demo stage, that’s when things get interesting and complicated.
- Encouraging students to introduce their code to other people will raise questions, reveal bugs, and push students to grapple with complex programming problems.
- When other people are interested and holding the students accountable, students can’t be too lazy to see a feature to completion.
- It’s always great to see the faces of students when they discover their bug was a small error.
- It’s a great learning lesson to pay attention to the small details.
- Having other students perform this task for each other results in more students looking for the small details and supports a collaborative environment.
