Last of Class Reflection Post

As we wind up the class today until next term I thought we could take a few minutes to regroup and reflect on the knowledge we have gained this term. Please share with the rest of the class:


5 things you have learned this term

5 ways you will be able to use what you have learned either in college or your career (how you will apply your knowledge)

2 what I like to call 'Ah ha' moments - in other words 2 times when the light REALLY went on about something

3 things you liked about the class

3 things you did NOT like about the class

Tell us how you can use social bookmarking (Delicious) to help in other classes and your future career.

And finally, how would you change the class in the future

Writing About Your Language in Plain Words

You are to begin thinking and planning for creating a video about your language. The video must be informative, creative, original, relevant and professional. I will be providing more details tomorrow.

In the mean time you should begin the 'pre-planning' process of determining how you are going to create your video and what your main focus will be.

You will be providing me with a complete project analysis.

Sharing Java and C++ Blogs

You are to share your 2 (two) blogs that you should have found during last weeks assignment. Each of you should have found two blogs that provide relevant, reliable, and pertinent information regarding your programming language.

You are to share those blog links with us here.

In addition, you must tell us why you picked these blogs and what information you found to be of particular interest and why.

Tell me if you have a library card to our public library please.
