Jan 28, 2011 at 15:51 comment added iteratingself I've actually found pair programming to work poorly when used to try and teach. It works best with 2 people of near equivalent experience and skill level, or at least deferral and trust in the teammate.

Jan 28, 2011 at 15:44 comment added blueberryfields @P.Brian.Mackey There's no need for a master-slave relationship, only a difference in experience. And this is not training, it's pair programming. In your example, the knowledge would be expected to flow from the .NET guy to the not .NET guy. If I wrote the printer driver, and you're pair programming to fix it, I'll be teaching you what I did, no matter what else you've done or know
Jan 28, 2011 at 15:36 comment added crosenblum Actually that does sound cool and interesting. Okay I want to do that, but how? And what programming languages? This sounds like an interesting challenge, and I accept! :)
Jan 28, 2011 at 15:33 comment added P.Brian.Mackey What about situations where everyone is a peer? Without a "master slave" relationship how can one effectivly review the code of another? More experienced in terms of what? Should a 10 year progger with no .NET knowledge train a 3 year .NET guy on a .NET project? I prefer the term "peer review"...
Jan 28, 2011 at 15:22 comment added blueberryfields Pair program with me, and I'll show you.
Jan 28, 2011 at 15:20 comment added crosenblum Interesting approach that I have never experienced personally. And that's the problem, how can I know your answer is the right one, if i have never done it that way to understand if it is correct for me or not? Thank you though.
