Stepping Stones

Balancing academic and social life during this quarter. I have received helpful knowledge and skills that noted points about management and the importance of prioritization made me aware of needing time for everything, and this has been helpful in managing all my responsibilities. Many techniques on staying on track, such as using to-do lists and self-set deadlines, were learned and implemented. It improved my academic performance and enhanced my confidence and self-discipline.

However, there were various challenges throughout the quarter. For example, I found myself in many kinds of problems, especially when multiple projects and requirements were about to be due simultaneously. It made me feel lost in confusion, frustration, and anxiety. There were even times when I almost wanted to give up, but my emotions did not beat that inside me.

To counter these problems, I established a system of time and task management. I first started a to-do list, which helped me update my progress, reflecting on the objectives. In addition, I had to prioritize the tasks before me, handling the most important ones first. Though it was not easy at the beginning, with time passing, I adapted to the situation, and productivity increased remarkably.

I will move forward into the next quarter while carrying with me the lessons I learned, and I must continuously apply the skills and techniques that I have conquered so I can overcome the obstacles that I will face.

    I know what you feel, I've gone through the same things but like you I also managed to get through it.

World of Wonders (THEMATIC)

 June the month of environment, a month-long celebration reminding us about the pressing need to resolve environmental problems we face, from climate change and pollution to deforestation and loss of biodiversity. It challenges us to reflect on our responsibilities toward the environment and to undertake steps to reduce our ecological footprint. It makes us work toward a better future for us and for generations to come. Certain things could initially appear little and straightforward, but when we gather all of these little parts and put them all together, they might become something larger. For example, unplugging appliances when they are not in use, by doing this simple thing we can conserve and save electricity.  Another way I contributed to the environment is of course planting. Planting helps not only us humans, but also animals. Plants have many benifits, such as it serves as a shade for a hot day, it gives fresh air that clears out bad gasses, etc.  Third, by choos...

A Journey Unfolds with these Codes

 Reflecting on this past quarter, I’ve gained valuable lessons that have significantly influenced my perspective and approach to various aspects of my life. One of the most important lessons has been coding. For me, coding have been both enlightening and transformative.  I approached coding with a mix of excitement and apprehension, unsure of my ability to grasp the concepts. However, I choose to nourish and build my skills from each activities and assignments.                                     Source  As I look ahead, I am committed to applying these lessons to ensure continued growth and success. By integrating these lessons into my daily life, I am confident that I will be better equipped to face future challenges and seize opportunities that come my way.

Priceless learnings

 This quarter, I reflected on my experiences with community-based research, HTML frames, and nested lists.  In community-based research, I discovered how important it is to work with local communities. By listening to their needs and involving them in research, we can gather better information and build trust. This approach helps ensure that our work is relevant and beneficial to the people we aim to help. When we learned about HTML frames, we saw how to organize web content in a way that makes it easier for users to navigate. Using frames allows us to show different pieces of information at the same time, which can improve the overall experience for anyone visiting a website. Finally, working with nested lists taught us how to organize information clearly. By breaking down complex ideas into smaller, easy-to-understand parts, we can help others follow our thoughts more easily. This skill is useful not just in coding but also in presenting our research and ideas. References: *...
