## 13:00 \[team only breakout] Scope Your Hackathon Goal

### Why we do hackathons

We do hackathons at the start of osoc to...

* *...really* get to know each other. It's your time to shine, show what you can do and see how your other team members can bring a project to the next level ✨
* ...run through a first *cycle* together; from defining what you're going to build, to building, to delivering a first valuable *thing*, which you will define during the scoping session.
* ...make mistakes. Please make a lot of mistakes and learn, to do better in the next cycle 🔥

### What happens during a scoping session

Decide with the team what you want to create during the hackathon. This depends on your project, team members and goals! There's a [tutorial on how to do a scoping session](https://help.osoc.be/global/coaches/the-coaching-job/how-to-manage-a-team#how-to-do-a-scoping-session).

For example:

* Refine the story
* Create your wireframes/mockups
* A first prototype
* Try out a new technology
* ... Surprise us

Take the time you need, the team decides when they are to start hacking!&#x20;

Oh and remember the rule of **π** ([pi](https://twitter.com/pietercolpaert))... When doing an estimation of a task, let's say, for an hour, it's most likely to take about 3.14 times longer. Thank us later.
