Wk05: Learning Journal Makrov

 1. I worked with the entire team, reviewing each of their codes and discussing our solutions to the problem at hand. These people would be Mariah, Claudia, and Cody.

2. My personal strategy for solving the Markov assignment was simple: read the prompt carefully, glance over the unit tests, and begin writing the code accordingly.

3. Mariah's strategy was to stub out the code and follow the prompts until the code compiled. Claudia & Cody's strategy was most similar to mine, which was to read the prompt and go on about coding with minimal planning. 

4. I would not change my strategy at this time, as it has been working. In fact, the next project I'll try incorporating paper planning, as it will be much more beneficial when the scale of the projects continues to grow.

5. My classmates claim that I follow the Google Java Style Guide with near perfection, though I doubt it. I automated some of the style guide rules and used common sense to determine what looks good, in conjunction with the style implemented while coding.

Week 2: CST 300 Learning Journal

Part 1     When it comes to staying actively engaged in studying, my strongest areas are asking questions, reading the text, finding the main idea and supporting details, and reviewing my past notes. Asking questions enables the reader to better retain and remember certain details from what is read. Reviewing past notes ensures that I remember and reinforces my knowledge. A few areas I feel the need to work on are reciting, penmanship, and study habits. Being able to recite important information every so often will improve memory and build a better connection to details. More legible penmanship is important for organisation and readability. Having a scheduled study plan is essential to having consistent and functional study habits. Part 2 Part 3     An important concept I learned is the Work Breakdown Structure. The idea of this is to take a large project and split it into several smaller projects, which allows for an easier overview of the problems and solutions at ...

Week 4: CST 300 Learning Journal

     My educational goal for the CS program is to achieve the highest grade possible while learning and retaining the concepts and strategies taught within the course. I aim to graduate with proper grades and feel that I have sufficiently earned my degree from the program. Understanding core concepts and gaining valuable experience will definitely help me achieve my educational goals from the online computer science program.     My career goals are to specialize in a field, such as software engineering, gaining the necessary experience in designing efficient software, where I would then transition into machine learning. Skills gained from software engineering will be directly transferable to developing artificial intelligence systems.     In 18 months, considering what I already know and what I will refine, learn, and experience, I believe I will achieve a high percentile on the ETS Computer Science test.     This week, I learned a significan...
