“Any piece of knowledge I acquire today has a value at
this moment exactly proportional to my skill to deal with it. Tomorrow, when I
know more, I recall that piece of knowledge and use it better.” –Mark Van Doren
As says the quote,what we have learned helps us developing the skill to tackle it further in future.Choosing computing for my degree was like a surprise to
myself, I hardly could prepare for it. But, knowledge never goes wasted whether
you learn it or you perform it. The Qbasic, database, computer networking,
hardware and software courses though learned little in schooling days has
created a mental map as I see the subjects widely related to my 2nd
and 3rd year. Being a sincere math performer, I realize the topics match
to my 1st year logic module. As every action gives an experience and
a lesson, my habit of participating in almost every stage related programs and
giving many mass presentation has developed my self confidence and presenting
skills which will widely help me in this course.
“You got to visualize what you want to get before you get
it”- Shiv Kher.
Visualizing myself 3 yrs ahead, makes me
imagine myself as a different character. I expect the course to develop me as a
good programmer and a good presenter. I expect to gain not only the theoretical
knowledge based on the modules but also the attitude toward problem solving,
practical skills, technical information, methods of tackling problems in
programming which will help me not only to follow the path of programmers but
make a new path my way. Having learned modules like Programming, Operating System, Software engineering, Communication networks, I am quite confident that the
course will help me emerge as a good programmer and performer in the field of
information technology.
