--------------------------------
Minimum Age: 16
Maximum Age: None
Prerequisites: Basic computer skills
Summary: In this hands-on workshop, participants will learn the powerful problem-solving technique of "Rubber Duck Scripts," where they'll receive their rubber duck to work on and practice explaining code problems aloud to improve troubleshooting skills. Through guided exercises, pair programming sessions, and fundamental coding challenges, attendees will discover the cognitive science behind verbalization while developing personalized debugging approaches. Developers of all levels should attend to break through coding blocks and articulate technical concepts more clearly. Participants will leave with enhanced problem-solving abilities, a deeper understanding of their thought processes, and new hacking techniques.
If you have a laptop, please bring it with you. Minimum of five participants needed to run class.
About the Instructor: The workshop will be led by Dr. Sayeed Sajal, Assistant Professor, Computer Science, Utah Valley University.
