Reading Journal
Week1 entry due Sunday, Jan. 23 by 11:59pm

Setting up your journal repo

You will only need to do these steps once at the beginning of the semester.

Replace USERNAME with your own username.

1. Connect to the CS machines:
   ssh USERNAME@cslab.cs.swarthmore.edu


2. Clone the journal repo:
   git clone git@github.swarthmore.edu:cs63-s22/journal-USERNAME.git


3. Then change into that directory and list the directory contents:
   cd journal-USERNAME
   ls
   

You should see that there is a collection of markdown files, one for each week of the semester. These files will form your reading journal for the course.

These files are in a markdown format. You can edit them with your favorite editor and simply enter text. If you'd like to add formatting to your text here is a Markdown Cheat Sheet that shows you how.

Week 1 assignment

• Review the Reading section of the course web page for guidance on how to get the most out of the reading. This also explains how your journal entries will be evaluated.
• Review the Grading section of the course web page and notice that your reading journal will be worth 10% of your overall grade.
• In the Schedule section of the course web page there are three articles posted in Week 1. Your assignment for this week is to choose two of these articles to read and then answer the questions in the Reading Journal link for this week. For this first asynchronous week you will be modifying the file week1.md.

Submitting your journal entry

To submit your journal entry use git to add, commit and push the week1.md file that you modified.
