Agile Workshop: Coding Dojo Part 1: Randori

Join us for a powerful learning experience where you will participate in helping to solve a programming problem. A Coding Dojo is a get-together where programmers follow a pattern similar to the martial arts dojo to practice their skills. In this Coding Dojo you will get an opportunity to practice the extreme programming techniques of Test Driven Development, Pair Programming, Refactoring, User Stories, and Simple Design. We will be using the Randori format, to let as many participants as possible do actual coding.

Title: Agile Workshop presentation

Abstract: Coding Dojos: We are doing several at the upcoming Code Camp in Fullerton. It is very interactive as 10 to 14 or so audience members actually join in at the keyboard (one at a time) and pair with another audience member as the group works through a programming "story" or two using TDD. It is a lot of fun, and really shows how some of the XP practices work.
