<small>Monthly Challenge for February 2024:</small> <br /> | ||
Month of Learning! | ||
</h1> | ||
|

<p className="lead mt-3">It's time for learning new things!</p> | ||
|
||
<hr /> | ||
|
||
<h2>The Challenge</h2> | ||
<p> | ||
During this month, we'll work on learning new dev-related things. You | ||
might deep-dive into one topic, focus on a new topic every week, or do a | ||
little bit of everything. | ||
</p> | ||
<p> | ||
If you're inspired by what you learn and want to share more, we | ||
encourage you to give a{' '} | ||
<Link to="/lunch-and-learn-idea/">Lunch & Learn</Link> or get ready for | ||
our Lightning Talks in April! | ||
</p> | ||
|
||
<h2>Goals</h2> | ||
<p> | ||
We aim to learn something new, share what we've learned, and{' '} | ||
<a href="https://github.com/orgs/Virtual-Coffee/discussions/1123"> | ||
gather recommendations and resources | ||
</a>{' '} | ||
to share with the community. | ||
</p> | ||
|
||
<h2>How It Works</h2> | ||
|
||
<h3>Create Your Plan and Set Your Goals</h3> | ||
<p className="mt-3"> | ||
In the first week of February, you should draft your learning plan. | ||
</p> | ||
<ul> | ||
<li> | ||
<strong>Define:</strong> What's the topic you'll be learning about? | ||
</li> | ||
<li> | ||
<strong>Reference:</strong> What resources will you use? | ||
</li> | ||
<li> | ||
<strong>Cohort type:</strong> How do you want to learn? | ||
<ul> | ||
<li> | ||
<strong>With people:</strong> If you need accountability and have | ||
people around to support you, join our{' '} | ||
<Link to="/resources/virtual-coffee-handbook/guides-to-virtual-coffee/coffee-table-groups#accountabilibuddies"> | ||
Accountabilibuddies | ||
</Link>{' '} | ||
sessions. Check out the <code>#announcements</code> and{' '} | ||
<code>#vc-events</code> channels in Slack for the schedule. | ||
</li> | ||
<li> | ||
<strong>Async cohort:</strong> If you want to learn async with | ||
other people, head over to our <code>#learning-together</code>{' '} | ||
channel on Slack and ask if anyone wants to learn about one | ||
particular topic together with you and create an async cohort. You | ||
can read{' '} | ||
<a href="https://github.com/orgs/Virtual-Coffee/discussions/493"> | ||
these tips | ||
</a>{' '} | ||
for starting your own cohort. | ||
</li> | ||
<li> | ||
<strong>Independent:</strong> You want to learn alone but needs | ||
something to hold you accountable? You can use{' '} | ||
<a href="https://github.com/adiati98/learning-journal-template"> | ||
this learning journal template | ||
</a>{' '} | ||
to record your progress. | ||
</li> | ||
<li> | ||
<strong>Live:</strong> Do you want to do a live stream while | ||
learning? Drop the time of your stream and the link to your Twitch | ||
(or any other platform you use) in the{' '} | ||
<code>#external-events</code> channel on Slack so the community | ||
can attend and learn together! | ||
</li> | ||
</ul> | ||
</li> | ||
<li> | ||
<strong>Before you start, set a goal for yourself</strong>. Set weekly | ||
goals and/or goals for the month. For example, you may want to learn | ||
accessibility for 1 hour/week, 10 hours/week, or complete one | ||
lesson/day. Maybe your goal involves creation. You may want to write | ||
an article, a lightning talk, or a conference talk based on your | ||
learning. The sky is the limit! | ||
</li> | ||
</ul> | ||
|
||
<h3>Make Progress</h3> | ||
<p> | ||
We'll be doing learning check-ins in the <code>#monthly-challenge</code>{' '} | ||
channel in Slack. Each Monday, set your goal for the week. On Friday, | ||
give your progress update. | ||
</p> | ||
<p> | ||
Each week, you'll choose something you want to learn and the resources | ||
you'll use to learn about it, then dive into learning. You can continue | ||
learning about one topic throughout the month or use the month to | ||
explore a new topic every week. | ||
</p> | ||
<p> | ||
At the end of the month, we'll collect recommendations of the best | ||
tools, guides, and resources we found as we explored our topics for this | ||
month's challenge and share them with the whole community. | ||
</p> | ||
|
||
<h3>Learning Ideas</h3> | ||
<p> | ||
Not sure what you want to learn about? Here are a couple of | ||
non-traditional ideas to help you get started: | ||
</p> | ||
<ul> | ||
<li> | ||
Host a watch party and discussion. Is there an online conference, | ||
YouTube video, or live stream that you can watch with others and then | ||
discuss? | ||
</li> | ||
<li> | ||
Check out the <code>#articles-and-resources</code> channel in Slack. | ||
Read a new one every day. | ||
</li> | ||
<li>Listen to a podcast every morning that covers a new tech topic.</li> | ||
</ul> | ||
|
