Option 1
The first idea for my 20time project is learning to code in JavaScript using the 8 units on Codecademy.com. I have wanted to learn to code in JavaScript for years, so I am treating this project as a structured means of doing so. I will also be using JavaScript: The Definitive Guide by David Flanagan as a supplementary resource. My ultimate goal for this project would be to design the adventure game at the end of the Codecademy.com units. My goal after the project would be to continue learning JavaScript and progress my web design abilities. Inquiries 1. How will I measure my abilities, since the quizzes are only accessible through the Pro subscription? 2. How will I ensure I am participating in genuine learning? 3. How much time will I devote each week to my project? 4. How will I supplement my learning with tools other than Codecademy.com? 5. How will I stay on track with my schedule? 6. How will I apply my learning to my teaching practice? 7. What are the soft skills I hope to acquire from this project? 8. When will I apply the knowledge I acquire from this project? 9. Where are more resources for this project? 10. How can I collaborate with others to accomplish this project? 11. Where are there communities I can join for help with this project? 12. How can I implement play into my project? Option 2 The second idea for my 20time project is to learn to build a bookcase for my education books. I currently have a huge stack of books and no place to put them. I have wanted to build a bookcase to store these books for awhile now, rather than buy a bookcase from IKEA. I have the resources to accomplish this project because my dad built a wood shop after he retired. I think this project has the bonus of not only being useful but also being an opportunity for my dad and I to work on a project together. Plus, I can learn a lot of skills and have the satisfaction of building something on my own. 1. How will I measure my abilities? 2. How will I ensure I am participating in genuine learning? 3. How much time will I devote each week to my project? 4. How will I supplement my learning? 5. How will I stay on track with my schedule? 6. How will I apply my learning to my teaching practice? 7.

Welcome to my 20TIME Project page. The following is a Google Slides(show) describing the members of House Mighty Beard and their respective projects. I am looking forward to seeing how much learning and progress we can accomplish in five weeks.
