Wednesday, March 22, 2023 - 9:00 am9:45 am

Paige Cruz, Chronosphere

Abstract: 

Cognitive apprenticeship is the philosophy that it is more effective to learn in context and real-world situations compared to following a tutorial in a sandboxed environment. In a nutshell it is "learning-through-guided-experience" and shines when teaching problem-solving processes experts use to handle complex tasks like say…investigating an alert by spelunking in production observability and monitoring data. Learn how Alert Triage Hour of Power became a can't miss meeting of camaraderie and system surprises!
