    Project Description:

    In this project, my team designed a workshop with the goal on increasing interest in Information Technology as a whole; there was a total of four workshops (three with freshman classes and one with middle schoolers) where we taught our audience how to play sounds using a makey makey controller through scratch to then teach basic sound editing on audacity.

    Project Description:

    In this project, I colaborated with two other people to make a text based adventure game while following the Waterfall model of the Software development life cycle (SDLC). Although this project is incomplete and not compileable, I learned these tidbits from working on the project:

  • Collabing with other people while using Github
  • A better understanding for why object-oriented programming is good for working with other people
  • SQLite
  • Java
  • Waterfall methodology and its weaknesses experienced first-hand
