- Description
This is a hands on lab with limited capacity.
In a world where 75%+ software projects still fail, what is going wrong? Failure == doesn't meet customer and/or business needs. Let's see how we can break this cycle of failure by designing these needs into software.
In this workshop you will explore a problem and experiment with software design techniques in a supportive environment. We'll take a step back to think about designing the system that builds the system, and have fun creating a design together.
Join this workshop to:
- Get your teeth into an interesting problem with practical activities
- Explore and share techniques for breaking down the problem and designing a solution
- Practise diagramming and presenting your designs
- Learn from others in a safe and supportive atmosphere
This is a fun and mostly practical workshop for anyone working in software development, and there may also be some prizes!
