And since bootcamps famously focus on projects for learning the material and <a href=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/building-a-github-portfolio\/\">building a GitHub portfolio<\/a>, it\u2019s important to get as clear as possible as to what this will mean.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article we\u2019re going to discuss project-based learning generally, and then explore what this tends to mean for attendees of web development and data science bootcamps.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Is Project-Based Learning?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/mimi-thian-737711-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3008\"\/><figcaption> Individual and group projects are a fantastic way of acquiring new skills.&nbsp;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Project-based learning is an approach to acquiring knowledge and skills oriented around building projects of successive difficulty. It\u2019s popular in the programming and data science communities.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are alternatives which you are more likely to encounter in traditional classrooms or in individuals who are self-taught. A theory-based approach emphasizes the study of high-level theoretical concepts before actually making anything, for example.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Benefits of Project-Based Learning in Coding Bootcamp<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Working on projects as a means of learning has numerous advantages. It familiarizes you not only with specific skills, but in how those skills all tie together. Building a machine learning model is one thing, building it in the context of a complete data science pipeline is quite another, and it\u2019s this second task that\u2019s really more valuable to employers.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Projects are almost always done with other people, which also teaches you how to work in groups, how to use version control systems like <a href=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/what-is-github-used-for\/\">Github<\/a>, and how to communicate effectively.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Typical Web Development Bootcamp Projects<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/clement-h-544786-unsplash-1.jpg\" alt=\"Code on a computer screen. \" class=\"wp-image-1979\"\/><figcaption>There are a wide variety of web development projects you\u2019ll undertake at a web development bootcamp.&nbsp;<br><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Web development bootcamps tend to come in <a href=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/backend-vs-front-end-development\/\">front end, backend<\/a>, and full stack flavors. Naturally, the kinds of projects you\u2019ll build will be strongly influenced by which of these programs you\u2019ve ended up in.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Front End Development Bootcamp Projects<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Front end web development work is <strong>user-facing<\/strong>, consisting of things like <strong>building responsive web pages or making sure application interfaces are intuitive<\/strong> enough for non-technical people to easily use. The projects you\u2019ll build in a front end program will focus on this and will be built with technologies like <strong>Ruby on Rails<\/strong>, <strong>JavaScript<\/strong>, and <strong>JQuery<\/strong>. Expect to <strong>make web pages and web applications<\/strong>, not spending too much time on subjects like server-side coding or database management.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Backend Development Bootcamp Projects<\/strong><br><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>In contrast, backend web development work concentrates on the technologies that power the internet \u2018under-the-hood\u2019. <strong>Server-side scripting and database management<\/strong> are precisely the kinds of things you\u2019ll be learning to do. Expect to learn technologies like <strong>MongoDB<\/strong>, <strong>Java<\/strong>, <strong>.NET<\/strong>, and <strong>Node.js<\/strong> to store a web application\u2019s data and dynamically update it.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Full Stack Development Bootcamp Projects<\/strong><br><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Full stack development, of course, <strong>combines these two things together<\/strong>, and your projects will reflect that.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Typical Data Science Bootcamp Projects<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/photo-1558544956-15f3c317e06a.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5599\"\/><figcaption>Data science must be learned actively.&nbsp;<br><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The term \u2018data science\u2019 stands for a pretty broad range of activities that can be broken down into <strong>data acquisition<\/strong>, <strong>data wrangling<\/strong>, <strong>database management<\/strong>, <strong>data<\/strong> <strong>analytics<\/strong>, and <strong>machine learning<\/strong>. At the Galvanize Data Science Immersive, I worked on projects that hit all of these major points, and as far as I can tell, pretty much every data science bootcamp does something similar.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Early in the program, our projects involved performing simple statistical analysis on pre-cleaned data to introduce us to the data science workflow. Later, we did some pretty grueling work which required us to take poorly-formatted JSON and get it into a format that would be usable for natural-language processing.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second half of the program featured a lot of <strong>cloud computing for big data<\/strong>. We worked with <strong>Spark<\/strong> and <strong>Amazon Web Services <\/strong>to process truly huge amounts of data. The field of data science is moving more and more in this direction, and given the unique technical challenges required for working with distributed computers and huge datasets, I\u2019m glad I was exposed to these technologies.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also spent time on machine learning and deep learning. We built simple neural networks in class, bigger ones for our projects, and learned to use popular ML frameworks like <strong>TensorFlow<\/strong>.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Given how important project-based learning is to the bootcamp community, hopefully this information will help you enter your bootcamp knowing what to expect.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If you\u2019ve made the decision to attend a coding bootcamp, no doubt you want to do everything you can to inform yourself about the challenges ahead.
