Reflection Topic

Peter Anthony Pepple is pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, planning to complete his degree in 5 terms by taking 4 classes per term. He is excited about courses in Computer Systems and Data Mining and Machine Learning but feels nervous about Programming 2 and Software Engineering 1 due to challenges with new programming languages and complex concepts. He has mastered skills in analyzing, budgeting, evaluating, researching, and visualizing, while seeking to improve in areas such as speaking a second language, editing, mentoring, coaching, and selling.

REFLECTION TOPIC: PLANNING FOR GRADUATION AND CAREER


Part 1:

1. My desired degree is: Bachelor of Science in Computer Science

2. I plan to take 4 classses per term. It should take me 5 terms to finish my degree.

3. I am looking forward to these classes: (list at least 2 and explain why)

Ans:

 Computer Systems: I’m looking forward to learning about the internal design and
functionality of computer systems in their computer systems class. Currently I study
Electrical and Electronics Engineering at a Polytechnic with a drive to achieve a
degree in Computer Engineering with direct entry to a university of my choice.

Data Mining and Machine Learning: I’m excited to build my knowledge in data
analytics and data science. I feel that with the aid of this course and subsequent
courses thereafter, I will be able to understand the concepts and build my own
models for machines
4. I am a little nervous or concerned about these classes (list at least 2 and explain why)
 Programming 2:
I feel a bit shy when it comes to learning new programming languages other than
Python. Although Java is a powerful programming language for game development and
desktop application building, the syntax is not so user-friendly. However, I believe that
with practice and determination, I will understand the syntax and get comfortable
programming in Java.
 Software Engineering 1:

Due to my previous experiences with online learning platforms and courses on


software engineering. I see that a lot of programming languages are used and a lot of
concepts need to be learned before building a useful piece of software.

Part 2:
Ans:

SKILLS THAT I HAVE MASTERED:

 Analysing:
In my Polytechnic School, while building electronic science projects, I used to gather
useful facts from people who had done something similar in the past and use the
information to make informed decisions. This approach helped me a lot.

 Budgeting:
I always try to fit my team’s ideas into the team’s budget while scouting for materials for
their science project. I avoid purchasing fancy equipment that may incur more cost and
go for less-expensive, yet reliable equipment that can also get the same project task
done without having to get ripped off of money that could be channelled into other
aspects of the project

 Evaluating:
Before starting any electronic project with my team, I ensure that the resources
available in the market match what the project requires to avoid time wastage and
reduce the risk of wasted finances

 Researching:
I stay up-to-date with the latest trends in the world of technology and conducts
thorough research on relevant information before embarking on any project.

 Visualizing:
I visualize how a particular action will play out in real life before carrying it out.

SKILLS I STILL NEED TO MASTER:


 Speaking a second language:
Well for me to master a second language, I’ll have to take language courses from
certified language teaching institutes like Duolingo, Coursera etc.

 Editing: I’ll attach myself to those who are proficient in editing


 Mentoring: I’ll attend leadership seminars that will broaden my horizon on how to
become a better role model and leader
 Coaching: I’ll do just the same as I would do for mentoring
 Selling: I’ll take courses on how to market or sell products on reputable training sites like
coursera and simplilearn
