CST 336 Week 2

 

WELCOME TO WEEK 2

Learning Journal

This week, we dove into JavaScript, and I learned a lot. I created variables and used control structures, which are important for building any program. I also learned how to manipulate HTML and CSS with JavaScript to make webpages more interactive and dynamic. 

I worked on creating events and event handlers, which let me respond to user interactions on a webpage. I practiced selecting specific HTML elements and interacting with them, and debugging JavaScript programs helped me get better at finding and fixing errors.

For our homework, I created a quiz with multiple input types, like text boxes and radio buttons. I used JavaScript event listeners to grade the quiz, which was fun and made me more comfortable working with user input. One of the questions had randomized options every time the page reloaded, and I used the _.shuffle function to make it happen.

This week helped me understand JavaScript basics and how to apply them to real projects. I feel more confident now, and I’m excited to see what I’ll learn next week!

  WELCOME TO WEEK 4 Educational & Career Goals This I learned that it is essential to use these 7 Career Goals in order to succeed:  Self-Assessment Networking Tracking Accomplishments Know Your Worth  Update Your Skills Negotiate Allow for Downtime https://cdn.shortpixel.ai/spai/w_1052+q_lossy+ret_img+to_webp/tipsforlawyers.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Goal-setting-2048x1152.jpg      Tracking accomplishments is one goal that I want to apply to my career.

This goal will also help me create my portfolio. Another career goal that I want to apply is to update my skills and begin networking. For instance, updating my skills by learning new programming languages, will be beneficial when being considered for interviews. Networking will also be beneficial, as job recruitment has changed f...

  WELCOME TO WEEK 7 Journal:       This week has certainly made me look back at all the things I learned in this course. The challenges I faced and breakthroughs as well. I think back on the assignment "Jotto" and remember the difficulty I had because I was new to Java. With the things I learned, I feel there would be different approaches I could try. When I worked on "Markov," I felt much more confident and had less difficulty completing that assignment. It felt really good passing all the unit tests and having the correct output. Another assignment where I felt really good was Project 1, although there were instances where I had trouble, I was able to successfully accomplish the goal. I feel I understand access modifiers and their purpose compared to the beginning. I also feel more comfortable, as the weeks have passed, working with Room Database. At the beginning of the project, I was worried and confused, but the more I practiced, the more ideas that would p...

WELCOME TO WEEK 7   Part One:      The group has done a excellent good in collaborating and keeping the process running smoothly, especially thanks to Luis, who was able to get ahead and start the research. We have been using Discord to communicate and share our work for the team's Final Research Video Project. With the completion of our recordings, the next step is editing.  Soon, we will be able to integrate them into the presentation. Afterwards, we will add the finishing touches that are needed.  Part Two:      This week's lecture assignments  were to review TedTalk videos and presentation resources. The TedTalk video I chose was "Why AI will Spark Exponential Economic Growth" by Cathie Wood. She focuses on the new innovations happening today . The innovations mentioned include Artificial Intelligence, Multiomic Sequencing, Robotics, Energy Storage, and Public Blockchains. Cathie explains that what used to happen in Moore's Law ...
