Module 1: Intro & LectureIn this module, we are learning about the Computer Science major, CSUMB vision, plagiarism, APA style, and reviewing the industry analysis essay requirements. I must admit that I feel very positive and energetic about this program. However, as expected, the assignments in the first two weeks consist of many small tasks that require some time for reviewing several materials. Regardless, my level of motivation remains high, and I am fully committed to giving it my all.It is fascinating to learn about the history of California State University Monterey Bay and its establishment by the local community following the closure of the army base Fort Ord. The review of the history and vision was informative and left a positive impression and sense of pride in joining CSUMB. There are three quizzes in this module, and I believe all of them were easy to answer after reviewing the weekly material. Part of the first week's assignments is to connect with faculty, instructors, and teammates. Therefore, some assignments are designed for scheduling meetings, creating a video for self-introduction on YouTube (which I have created with unlisted visibility,) and then adding the link to the team roster. Other basic small tasks include uploading a picture to Canvas, updating preferred pronouns, and creating a LinkedIn account.
Module 1: Writing LabThe module introduces the APA (American Psychological Association) as the writing style used in this class. Additionally, the module covers guidelines for in-text citations, citing from different sources, and formatting the reference page. After reviewing the APA guide, I still find citing a website challenging without an author's name and an available publication date. We are also learning about the types of research sources and reviewing examples of the accepted types for the citation to prepare for the upcoming research paper.The first paper in this class is an industry analysis research essay. I like how this prompt is the first paper in this program. The benefits of researching and analyzing an industry go beyond this class as a first step to establishing a career, advancing an existing one, or even changing a career entirely. I spent more than the allocated 4 hours researching and connecting ideas, but it was worth the insight I gained by scratching the surface. I am satisfied with the outcome of my outline and hope to receive beneficial feedback in the upcoming modules.
OLI LearningThis week marks the first assignment related to the Open Learning Initiative (OLI). Unit 1, which includes the pretest, consists of several questions with the intent of thinking about teamwork and collaboration. Module 1 also incorporates a video depicting an intense team meeting, asking to recognize the poor behaviors exhibited by the participants. As a working individual, I cannot stress enough how crucial teamwork is for the success of a business. Next is module 2.
