4/25 Post

For my final post, I would like to talk about what i have learned over the course of the semester. I really like this class, it taught me a lot of how teams work together, through Tuckman's Group Development Stages to how people actually collaborate together. I thought it was very interesting how collaboration is basically the root of all social media platforms. Like when we learned about how the Ferguson protest were broadcasted on social media in a practical way. Through many examples throughout the semester, I see social media and working in teams very differently. Even in the daily teams I participate in, I dissect which stage we are on and how this team will ultimately work out. When I worked with my group for the Unit One project, we all worked so well together I was comfortable enough to work with them again for the Unit Two project. Now since I can see what the future of the group may end up to be, any group that I might now feel comfortable to be in, I know when to step out. I think another really important argument I learned in this class was the idea of women as computer programmers. My dream job is to work for as the head of a company's social media. Here's a link of women who made it the work force. I think taking coding classes should be important to my pursuit and I believe that there is not a better time to end the stereotype thinking that programming is a “man’s job.” This idea can involve everything that we learned this semester. Women should have the right to study whatever they want, it will take a team to collaborate and change this idea that society has. It can be supported on social making their effort spreadable for others to see easily. People should be given the right to remix it into voicing how they feel about this issue about equality. We have the ability to connect worldwide in seconds. This class has taught me the tools on how to correctly dissect through platforms and the positives and negatives of online collaboration. So big thanks to Prof Daly !!
