Hello everyone and welcome to my blog post #7 and as this is my last blog post for this project, I felt like this was the perfect time to look back on what I’ve done so far across my last few months of work and see what I’ve achieved and the problems that came with it.
a. What challenges did you overcome throughout this action project? How did you go about
overcoming these challenges?
The biggest challenge for me was to find out what to do afterwards. I finished the main part of my project coding my little script but afterwards i was really having trouble trying to find a way to shift my approach to the concept of the course. However, after enough thought, I course corrected myself into just teaching anyone who asked how to code and even started to do a few 1 –1 lesson with a few of my friends and classmates in my programming course that didn’t know what to do and really helped them out into understanding how to code on a fundamental level.
b. How did this action change the way you think?
From my perspective, I didn’t really see a big impact on how I thought. I guess trying to find a way to put my thoughts into words that multiple people could intrinsically understand and extrapolate meaning out of was difficult but overall, I didn’t see it as too much of a status quo change.
c. How did this investigation/action impact your future decisions?
I’m still trying to shoot for my lifelong goal of making programs that everyone can enjoy and that could perhaps make the world a better place and all that this action did was remind me of that and make me laser focus more on that goal.
d. What impact will this investigation/action have on others locally and/or globally?
I feel like after posing this on a few coding forums this has gotten the attention that I was initially searching for, a few nerds use it and maybe perhaps some small news coverage sites could use it to extrapolate and report on information that otherwise would stay hidden. Overall, this is a mission success but for now local coverage from this school is more than enough.
