At first, I wanted to write a formal write-up
but I'm not a language person, so I will try to make it structured. In my
introduction, I would want to talk about the general summary. I hope to learn
more up-to-date software engineering technical terms and technical skills.
Firstly, I hope to learn more up-to-date
software engineering terms and tools. Personally, I feel that I am not yet
competent enough to communicate technical details with other people. Perhaps
because I am too focused in only one aspect of Computer Science and not diverse
enough. I am hopeful I get lots of opportunity to pick up new terms here and
there through communication with other students and activities in both
critiques and programming.
Secondly, I hope to pick up technical skills
like UI. I have not taken any UI classes or any project role where I have to
create UI. My roles so far is either mainly storage or
back-end. The first software UI role that I actually did was during my recent
internship which ended just last week and I admit I'm not up to industrial standards. (If you are viewing this page on web, the sketch above is drawn with HTML and CSS from a simple UI program I written in java.) I heard from my peers this module places a lot of focus in UI which
thus is a good training ground to force me to understand UI better, with
guidance and peers feedback from my teammates.
Finally, I would like to conclude with my honest
inner thoughts that I really don’t know what I will learn from this module, but
I know it will definitely worth it. I really appreciate all the efforts and
manpower needed to host this module. Hopefully my final semester will be
exciting, unforgettable and fruitful! XD
