Re: Idea: "CAD-a-thon"
Okay, seems like this idea is taking off. Therefore, I do hope to do a "CADathon" this winter break.
As for online vs. meeting physically, my team isn't going to give me support, in terms of helping me find a place to rent out for the day and such. Therefore, the one I intend to host will be online, so people out of the Bay Area can also be included. I'm still working on how that's going to work, but here's what I have in mind:
--> Participants will be divided into groups of 2-4, and they use Google Hangouts to communicate with each other to complete projects as a group
OR
--> Participants will be divided into groups of 5-10, and they use Google Hangouts to communicate with each other, but they work individually at most, using the online medium as a way to discuss and receive help and feedback on the work they've done.
I will have more information as the date gets close (date, I was thinking the first Monday after Christmas, which is the 28th), but the main issue with the first option is that maybe more gets done when working alone. However, the second option will not simulate what it's like to work with the other CADers on the team (unless you happen to be the only person who CADs on the team). Any thoughts on which one is the best way to go?
