My Final Blog post for the Class of IS101

The difference between when I had first started IS101-3004 and after everything, it seems like night and day with what I know now. This is because this class had made me realize that, I had very little knowledge to navigating word documents and for sure, not knowing nothing about excel spreadsheets. The skills that powerpoint had provided, was also surprisingly more detailed and in depth than i would have expected it to be.

My experience from my A5 slideshow was that, people had not known a lot about the supplements that they are taking to support their muscles and how to support a good workout. It had been interesting and a good feeling of teaching other people about something that i was passionate about and to express what i have learned.

Manage Headers, Footers, and Sections & Entering Simple Formulas

With the completion of Chapter 4, I have chosen the the skill of 4.11.6 (Manage Headers, Footers, and Sections). As someone who has to deal with Microsoft Word with almost every assignment that are published, it helps to know how to number pages and also how to add footnotes at the bottom of pages to explain a certain word or saying within the page.

With Chapter 5, I have chosen the skill of 5.6.8 (Entering Simple Formulas). With the introduction and working of simple formulas have introduced me into identifying formulas in spreadsheets, for example at my work I work with spreadsheets in excel regularly and have now identified them for being used to calculate percentages and sales within each branch of the company throughout the city, and has made me realize that lessons such as these can be used in many places outside of the classroom.

Finishing IS101-3004 I picture it being smooth and being another step in my education, and ending in a way that is easy going and having a good send off. The knowledge that I have gained from this class will forever be of use to me and the help that I have received from my professor Albert Wu, to help me in the class of IS101-3004.

Week Two Thoughts and Stories and Skill 2.3.10 Applied Lab: Managing Files

Week Two Thoughts and Stories

    These two weeks that I have been in the class of IS101 can be described as a journey and something that will carry me to the future. This class is something special and can easily lead and take people places with knowing what this class is teaching will for sure lead people to what they are trying to achieve. I can say that this class is also something great because of the professor that teaches it, he is someone that will help you through rough and hard times and will get you where you need to go.

    The LabSim that I have chosen is 2.3.10, because I have never actually had to sort and maintain my files on a computer. This has helped me learn and actually grasp what to do when sorting files and letting those within the office/classroom have access to certain one. This is something that is one of the the most useful lessons that LabSim has to offer and is something that helps people like me be more organized with my own computer and can with the up most certainty tell that this will help me in the future.

Who am I?

Who am I?


    My name is Cody and I am someone that always looks the part possibly and maybe your right, but I will tell you that I will definitely be the one who plays the part that I am chosen for and will do my best while I'm there. People have always said that I am someone that may look big with a scowl on my face but then once they meet me they describe me as being one of the most motivating people they have met. I have been proven to put others interest and problems before my own. I am just trying say that i am someone that deserves a chance and will do my best to prove something of myself.

    With the person that I am today, as a new college student that is coming straight out of high school I didn't know what to expect from any of my classes and I would definitely say that it is scary in the beginning and with the class of IS101 I thought this would be the scariest and hardest of them all. But after meeting the person that I would be calling my professor for the next 16 weeks I knew that I would have the help that I would need for this class. After meeting Professor Albert Wu, I had realized that he is someone that just throws the work at you and expects you to do all of it on your own but someone that will help you find your own way through certain situations. To really sum it up I thought the class of IS101 was going to be the worst class out of all but quickly got reassured almost immediately and knew that this would be a class of guidance and somewhere we can all actually learn from having questions.
