What is 30 Days of Udacity?
You may have heard of the #100DaysofCode Challenge. Well, here at Udacity we offer something very similar. It's called the 30 Days of Udacity Challenge β and we're here to challenge you!
The rules are mostly unchanged - the general premise is to make learning a habit by making a public commitment to work in your classroom every day for 30 days within your OneTen Scholarship Program.
Habits that emphasize consistent practice have been proven to help the overall retention of new learning material.
By participating in this Challenge, you'll build towards the goal of finishing the Program, track your progress regularly, and commit to that goal as a team so you can help each other achieve it!
π¨ You won't be assigned any specific team. We want 'everyone' who fills out a commitment form will be considered as part of ONE big team!
How Does it Work? π€
1οΈβ£ Sign up for the Challenge starting Monday, January 23rd, 2023. Everyone who signs up automatically gets their name added to our Commitment Wall.

1οΈβ£ Sign up for the Challenge starting Monday, January 23rd, 2023. Everyone who signs up automatically gets their name added to our Commitment Wall.
2οΈβ£ With the goal of completing your Program course by the deadline, EVERY DAY work in your classroom by setting aside time for it
(we're suggesting 60 minutes every day!)
3οΈβ£ Do a daily check-in of your progress in the #06-community-activities Slack Channel!
How? Every day at around the same time, make a short post in the #06-community-activities channel and answer the following three questions:
What did I work on today?
What will I work on tomorrow?
What issues are blocking my progress?
Hereβs an example of what a daily post would look like:
" Day 1 -
1. Today, I worked on Content Delivery under Cloud Fundamentals
2. Tomorrow I plan to work on Security under Cloud Fundamentals
3. Not understanding how to create a VPC is blocking my progress"
4οΈβ£ Operate as a team! π€
Applaud those who post any wins! For ex: if someone posts; 'Yesterday, I finally completed lesson 3'. You can leave an emoji under their daily update or reply to them directly!
Motivate anyone who is struggling! See if you can remove specific blockers or simply offer your help to them.
5οΈβ£ When you've successfully completed the 30-day challenge, go ahead and fill out the Completion Form (COMING SOON!)
Everyone who completes the Challenge gets a star next to their name on the Commitment Wall! π
General Guidelines β οΈ
General Guidelines β οΈ
You must do a DAILY check-in about your progress in the Program Course in #06-community-activities Slack Channel in the format given above each day except for the 2 days off of your choice.
You may choose to exercise 2 "Off Days" during the entirety of the 30 days at any point that you select. You will not have to post a check-in on those 2 days.
You can choose to make the daily check-in post at any particular time in your time zone. We will though recommend that whatever time you pick, try to keep posting at around the same time every day in the #06-community-activities channel as this will help in making it a habit!
For ex: if you decide to make a daily check-in post at 5 PM in your time zone, then try to do your daily check-in at the same time every day for the whole 30 days of the commitment
Completed your Program Coursework? If you happen to complete your Program Course before or during the 30 days, then in your daily check-ins you can post about something related to this Scholarship such as a project that demonstrates your newfound skills, leading sessions in your Study Team, or working on other relevant courses on Udacity.
Everyone who signs up for the 30-day commitment should think of themselves as a part of a big team!
Encouragement to your team members can be as simple as a positive emoji! ππ₯
To participate in the 30-day challenge, you must start on or before Monday, January 23rd. After that, the commitment form will be closed.
The commitment will end once you reach your 30-day mark! Of course, you are welcome to continue posting should you want to!
Participating scholars will be listed on the 30-Day Challenge Commitment Wall
When you successfully finish your 30-day commitment, let us know of it through the Completion Form! The Completion form will be released towards the end of this program.
You can set up a daily reminder in Slack to post the daily check-in every day! All you need to do is type and send this in your DM Conversation with Slackbot (paste the text without the quotes) "/remind me at XX AM every day to Post daily check-in for the 30-day challenge in #06-community-activities"
(You can replace XX AM with whatever time in your time zone you think you will be able to make a daily post for the challenge eg. 10 AM, 9:30 PM, etc.).
It all starts with a making a commitment! π
