Organizing Course and Hackathon for Students in Czechia

More students are waiting for their programming experience! This time, InterSystems corporation with myself as a teacher organized a course in Europe in Brno, Czechia. I was teaching a basic course of InterSystems Caché technology, web technologies and basic programming practice.

Some of the students were not experienced in programming at all, and during the one-week course of intensive trainings with practical exercises they were doing a great job!

At the end of the course, we had a two-day hackathon. Students formed their teams and selected their project's topics they have been working with during all the hackathon. At the end, 5 teams had their presentations and they did surprisingly perfect job! Some of the most noticeable projects were Caché Redis, Translator and others. It was so outstanding to see that people that was not familiar in programming did such great results.

Here's some (anonymized) feedback received from my students:

• Good, experienced trainer. What I like the most - the ability of the teacher to explain complicated things in simple words, it's very important for students.
