14. Class 2015
• Drop out, merging team
– Minimum 5 people
• Git/github
– Pull request, commit log, issues
• Test
– Travis CI
• Slack – communicaPon tool
• Trello – backlog
• Heroku - PaaS

15. RetrospecPve
• We (professors, coach) don’t teach
but students learn.
• Done is be^er than perfect.
• Face to face communicaPon is vital
and essenPal.
• Dropouts
• Pivot
• Free to fail

16. Our Next Challenges
• From ‘How’ to ‘What’ and ‘Why’
– Students can learn how to build web
services by our course but they can not
learn ‘what’ and ‘why’ to build.
• Growth Hackers
– we need growth hackers to coach our
PBL.

17. My wish to Students
• Show your competence.
– Apply contests, e.g. Mashup Award
– Build your services
• “The future is already here — it's
just not very evenly distributed.”
