Wk05: Learning Journal Markov

-

 1. Who did you work with?

I worked with Monica, Flavio, and Jeremy.

2. My strategy for solving the Markov assignment:

During this Markov assignment, I had no strategy. I didn’t prepare enough for this project and it    resulted in a bad outcome. I needed to give myself the time to understand everything and I definitely didn’t. It seemed easier than expected, but it wasn’t. I did start writing the code from the prompt right away but I did not finish it. Before I resubmit my assignment, I will study the UML diagram and write down the details of the fields and methods used in the class on paper. I enjoy writing notes, and I think that will help me rewrite this program along with others.

3. My classmate's strategy for solving the Markov assignment:

Flavio's strategy for solving this assignment was first using the tools he had which was the video Dr.C had posted. He then read the document needed to start the assignment and started right away following it. Monica read the prompt and began the skeleton of each method and putting comments for her TODO list. After this, she implemented it before running the tests.  

4. How would I change my strategy after having worked on the assignment?

My strategy would be the opposite of what I did. It was hard for me to understand this assignment due to the lack of time I gave myself to accomplish it. Moving forward I am going to write down the UML diagram and highlight what I accomplished in my code. I enjoy writing notes as it organizes my thoughts. Therefore, I would also organize and write on paper what the steps of how I will go about my code and check off each step to make sure I don't miss anything.

5. According to your classmates: how well does your code follow the Google Java style guide?

According to my classmates, I did a good job attending to the Google Java style guide when writing my code.

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...
