Marcia emailed me a very helpful email and she modified the
etherpad link so I know what to do now. I just need to email her about a couple of things, like where I should post my results, but she was very helpful.
So I went through the Helpee Ask a Question Scenario and the first time I did it, I did not get a confirmation screen with an "OK" button but I saw my question with the timestamp. The second time I did it the scenario passed and it included the confirmation screen and I noticed that "notification" was spelled wrong.
She then wanted me to make my own test case for answering a question so here is what I made and I'm going to email her to see if it's good.

OK, I'm *really* excited about this now! I spent several years hanging around the XP (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extreme_programming_practices#Planning_game) community, trying to learn what I could about how real world business IT processes work. XP has this concept of a "user story" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_story) which I've adopted as part of the way I plan with students and with customers of the small student enterprise I set up (http://novawebdevelopment.com).
ReplyDeleteThe more formal process you are learning through working with BuddyUp will not only be a great learning experience for you, but I plan to learn from your experience and bring what I can from it into the classroom to help future students.
