First week in task force 4 at Awesomity Lab and Code of Africa.

My first week was a week of learning new things and new experiences. It all started with an interesting game we played in two different teams. The may purpose of the game was to teach us the importance of teamwork, and how a team should collaborate towards achieving some goals. later on come another interesting session which I can call a self-discovery session, where I did a personality test to find my personality, and the result was amazing, even seeing people of a high profile who share the same personality was awesome.

During the week we also had two amazing sessions with Lionel (CEO at #awesomotylab) about creating good and efficient user stories while working on a project, my main takeaway from this was that the best way to write good user stories is to write them in a user perspective. He also introduced us to SHOW APP which is the app we will be working on during the Bootcamp and we proceeded by creating user stories for it as a team, and it was a mind-blowing experience.

Intercultural communication was also something we were introduced to by Anja(from #codeofafrica) which helped us understand well how to collaborate with others while working in a distributed team having people from different cultures.

We ended the week by being introduced to the whole #awesomitylab team followed by an amazing game in which were beaten by the #awesomity team only because they were the ones who come up with the game.

In a few words, my first week was at #awesomitylab and #codeofafrica was awesome, I am looking followed to the second week brings.
