-## 💡 Purpose
+Git is a tool for software development that you will likely come to rely on in your software development journey. It might seem complex at first but with continuous practice, you will begin to disentangle the complexity.
 
-This workshop will deepen your understanding of Git, a tool crucial for collaborative software development. By the end of this workshop, participants will: 
-- Have hands-on experience in exploring GitHub repositories
-- Creating forks, cloning repositories, branching, and committing changes
-- Consolidate existing knowledge of Git
-- Develop their **mental model** of the working tree and the staging area
-- Learn to use basic Git CLI commands
+## 💡 Objective
+
+This workshop will deepen your understanding of Git. By the end of this workshop, participants will: 
+- [ ] Navigate a GitHub repository using the VSCode interface
+- [ ] Fork and clone a repository, create branches, and commit changes using the VSCode interface
+- [ ] Articulate the difference between a fork and clone
+- [ ] Explain their <strong>mental model</strong> of the working tree and the staging area
