Today, our students went ahead with their lessons in the Full-stack Developer course, beginning with session 2 of their Git class with Instructor David.

Before continuing with the second session of Git, greetings were exchanged between the students and the Instructor (Instructor David), and then a recap of what was covered in the previous session was done.

Nakayiza to Instructor David

What do u mean by unstaging?

After the Git session with Instructor David, the students had a break of 10 minutes from 10:50 AM to 11:00 PM and then come back to the zoom class and the Touch typing session began with Instructor Ronald.

Here is the progress of the students in their touch typing:

• Kwaga Winnie – On module 492 of Touch-typing
• Ahimbisibwe Jesca – On module 549 of Touch-typing
• Emenyu Joel – On module 500 of Touch-typing

Challenges

• Some of the trainees attended using phones
• Some of the students were unable to attend the today’s class due to many reasons which include:
  • Poor network connection
  • Death of a relative
  • Attending to sick relatives

Conclusion

Overall this session was a success. Some trainees about 2 of them attended using phones but we recommended them to their computers the next time since the instructions are to attend the sessions using a computer.

We shall start from there tomorrow and ensure to start from where we left off.

Thank you for reading.
