Week Six

-

 Part 1:  My team and I discussed possible capstone ideas through Discord. From my ideas, my teammates enjoyed an app for kids to enjoy learning computer science. It would be great for students to learn about programming and see the possibilities of what they can make with it. One of the ideas that stood out to me was an app to remind people of their housework or personal projects. I can be very forgetful, and this app can help me finish tasks that need to be done at home. Another idea that stood out to me was a smart irrigation system that factors in the necessity to use less water when farming using IoT. It is always great to use less water whenever we can to preserve what we have.

Part 2: For the final presentation project, we came to the conclusion that we will be doing about two slides each and go over it together to see if it needs anything else. Besides the project, in this module, I took a look into how to make a cover letter and resume. There was plenty of information to go over to look at how to make a good resume and what recruiters look for when applying. I also made an ILP Portfolio website shell through Weebly. Additionally, to prepare for the next class we looked into Java. However, I have experience with Java through Code Academy. In this module, I had our weekly survey screenshot and my answers from CollabU Modules 8 and 9 that needed to be turned in. Lastly, we had a quiz and another assignment using AI.

My first week

-
I am excited and eager to have started this journey with an amazing cohort and faculty!  The material I reviewed included tips to help me be successful in our online program and the syllabus. D uring module 0, I made a weekly study schedule, and it was my first time making one. It was very interesting and helpful to use. I enjoyed interacting with my cohort and getting familiar with everyone during our discussion. Besides that, my wonderful teammates and I started working on our assignment early which included having a team name and making a collective resume as if we had a business. I suggested a few team names and my teammates agreed on Code Busters. We managed to work together to make our resume and the only thing we could have left out was AI. Our business consists of helping our customers debug their systems. (Our collective resume is included below.) Now continuing to Module 1 my team and I started off the week right by finishing our assignment the day we received it. We rev...

Second Week

Here are the following parts of this week's learning journal assignment. Part 1:  The three things I am good at are asking questions, taking notes, and gathering my materials. When looking over material or doing assignments, I always have questions, and I try to figure them out to understand what I am doing. In the SQ3R method, questions are great for learning because it covers the why, what, how, who, where, and when. I also enjoy implementing note taking. I have a notebook for my CST 300 class, and I also use my notes on my computer to make sure I get everything done. Taking notes helps memorize what you are writing. I am also good at having my materials on my desk where I study. I keep everything together so it’s easily accessible. The three things that I need to work on more are time management, where I study, and having a correct schedule that works for me. I always struggled with time management, and I felt it this week because I did several assignments on the day it was due....

Fourth Week

 Part 1: One educational goal of mine is to receive As and Bs throughout my journey in this program. This aligns with my second educational goal, getting a 180 out of 200 on my Ethics Argument Essay in my CST 300 class. I want to accomplish this goal by getting help from others. During this class, I received an 84 out of 100 on my Industry Analysis essay. I wasn’t too far out but the Ethics argument essay will be difficult. My last educational goal is to get ahead of my assignments by managing my time. I am always busy studying, working, being with my family, and trying to leave time for myself. I spend over twenty hours trying to figure out or perfect assignments and reviewing them in the Modules. Part 2: My career goal that I can work on is making projects to start my portfolio. Starting this can help recruiters and myself to acknowledge the progress I will be making. Considering I will have more knowledge by the end of this program. I also want to learn new program languages and...
