Projects developed at 42 São Paulo programming school.
Start date: 20/jan/2020 - the very first 42 class of South America!
42 is a global education initiative that offers a new way of learning technology:
no teachers, no classrooms, students learning from their fellow students (peer to peer
learning), with a methodology that develops both computing and life skills. The 42 cursus is
free for whoever is approved in its selection process* - the so-called "Piscine" - becoming
thus "cadets" (42's students).
* For further information about 42's selection process (the "Piscine"), please visit the C Piscine repo.
* C/C++ language, Makefile
* Shell scripting
* Git
* Networks
* Docker
* SQL
* Web (HTML, CSS, Wordpress)
* Computer graphics
* Assembly language
-- among others (find below the complete curriculum).
# Self-learning and proactivity
At 42, self-learning is at the core of its peer to peer learning methodology. There
are no teachers whatsoever; the learning process is based on googling, enquiring
your classmates, and empirical knowledge, each student learning at their own pace.
# Teamwork
Some projects must or should be developed in groups, which promotes collaborative
work among cadets. The major challenge here is to equalize the different knowledge
levels while finding a common work methodology that allows all team members to
contribute to the project.
# Time management and resiliency
The school is open 24/7. Thus, the cadets are free to work whenever they want, which
demands excellent time management skills and resiliency for not "drowning" amid the
massive load of work demanded by the program.
42cursus comprises two groups of projects: the first one being known as "inner circle" and the second one, "outer treks" - due to the Holy Graph layout (see image below).
The inner circle is the basic curriculum, with all projects being mandatory to attain level 7 - which is the minimum level required for activities such as internships and interchange.
The outer treks is a collection of diverse project trails in subjects ranging from operational systems to web development which allows cadets to specialize on whatever subject they prefer.
The table below presents the cursus curriculum in the chronological order in which it was (or is to be) completed by me - projects order and corresponding attained level may vary among students.
