Ming Chow's course at Tufts University emphasizes the development of skills crucial for engineering roles, such as hands-on experience, web mastery, and effective communication, all centered around the use of Git and GitHub. Inspired by Norman Ramsey's idea from Stack Overflow, Chow integrates version control into his curriculum to teach students the importance of collaboration through frequent, clear commits and project documentation like READMEs. Students engage in group projects that require them to navigate the complexities of web development, including third-party tools like APIs and platforms such as Heroku, preparing them to handle real-world challenges. The course culminates in students creating a portfolio of their work, highlighting the value of communication and teamwork, which Chow believes are essential for leadership in technology. This approach not only equips students with technical skills but also fosters an understanding of the interconnectedness of web technologies, encouraging them to become future leaders in the field.
