�⏰ Total Time: 2.5 hours

Hey everyone, name is Noer and I’m a Technical Curriculum Designer at Microverse. Today I’ll be your host of this workshop on containerization with Docker!��Let’s walk through the agenda quickly, so we can get to the good stuff: the learning activities!��First, we’ll discuss the educational model on which we base our courses (and this workshop is a sample of that). Then, we’ll get to know each other a bit, before I sent you away to do some learning on your own. This will be done asynchronously, which means you’ll do it at your own pace. After you’ve done so I’ll send the collaborative assignment in Slack, which you will work on with the 2 peers you’ve just gotten to know about it. This is also asynchronous. An hour and a half later you’re required to come back for a reflection.��After we finish that, I’ll do a short walkthrough of the course itself and then we wrap up with a Q&A.

In total, I’m keeping you for about 2.5 hours. Let’s enjoy the ride!

🧠 Educational model

Peer-to-peer

Project-based

Sync + Async

The way that we design our courses, is marked by the following 3 core tenets:

Peer-to-peer learning: this forms the foundation of your learning journey. The latest insights from the educational sciences have found that next to 1-1 mentorship with an expert, peer-to-peer learning achieves second best results in actual learning.
Project-based: we teach knowledge and skills that apply to the real world, by taking real scenarios and turning them into learning experiences. This means you get enough theory to get a basic understanding, but you’ll be engaged in various projects to build your skill.
Sync + async: to accommodate your lifestyle we’ve adopted a hybrid approach of synchronous and asynchronous learning, where the majority of the time your learning is done at your own pace. We only provide the structure and learning activities to help you go from A to B in the best way possible.

If you have any questions regarding the theoretical foundations of our courses, feel free to ask them in the Q&A.

👩🏽‍💻 Learning activities

Asynchronous
2 learning activities

Solo (30 min)
Collaborative (60 min)

�⏰ Time: 90 minutes

Welcome back! I hope you managed to connect a bit with each other.

The next step in the workshop is what you actually came for: learning some skills! Over the course of the next hour you’ll get started with learning and applying concepts of containerization with Docker. This is also the part that you’ll do asynchronously, that is, outside of the call at your own pace.

You’ll engage asynchronously in 2 learning activities: a solo and a collaborative one.

After 30 minutes have passed I’ll post the instructions + supporting materials in Slack for the collaborative activity and you’ll be asked to pair up with your peers from the introduction. The task here will be to create a product based on the concepts you’ve learned about. In this case it’s going to be containerizing an existing application + optimizing the image. There will be little guidance provided and you will be challenged to work together and find solutions, in the same way it would go in the real world.

I’ll ask you all to come back after around 90 minutes so we can discuss our solutions and learn from each other.

Enjoy the learning experience!
