  • 25: Top 3 most important facts about Coderetreat facilitation
    This episode marks one year of the Coderetreat Facilitation podcast.
    To celebrate the anniversary - and to prepare for the upcoming GDCR20 I will recap my top 3 most important facts about Coderetreat facilitation:
    • What is the Coding Dojo Mindset? (from episode 10)
    • What is your primary job as facilitator? (from episode 13)
    • Focus on pairing (from episode 15)
    • What is the best way to facilitate? (from episode 5)
    • Why are there four questions when I said "top 3"? ;-)
