Weekly Status Report #4, Friday March 2

Word Completed/Skills learned
This week in TIK I have learned a lot of interesting information about programming. On Monday I learned all about Software Documentation. On Tuesday I worked in class to complete four different assignments using Visual Basic. On Wednesday I learned about If...Then...Else statements. After that I started working on IF, Else, Then exercises . And on Friday teacher tough us all about the Select Case statements and gave us some exercises on them. Over the week I have learned how to create a variety of different programs using Visual Basic and how to use Software Documentation, If, Then, Else and Select Case statements.
Objectives/Future Goals/Word Remaining
My objectives for the upcoming week is to learn how to use Visual Basic better. I finished almost all exercises that TIK gave us to do, all I have to finish is just two Select Case exercises. I am also going to study and try to do good on Quiz on Thursday, since I did not do so well on the previous test. I have downloaded Visual Basic on my home computer so I can get some extra practice outside of class or finish assignments if I did not have enough time to do so in class.
Challenges Faced/How they were resolved
This week I ran into the number of problems with my programs but, with help of TIK and my classmates I could resolve them easily. On Tuesday I did not know how to do documentation for my program, since I missed Monday’s class. So, I asked TIK teacher and she explained it to me briefly. I was also facing difficulties with writing a code for some of my programs so I had to ask my friends for help.

In Conclusion it was another great week of TIK and I am looking forward to learning more about programming.
