Week 14

14 going on 30

  JULY 18th – 21st

 

I did CSS training using the Adolescent Health and Academic Achievement Study website. I drafted some new designs in Figma and began applying my ideas by editing the site’s CSS files. My end goal is to redesign the website and configure its responsiveness for mobile devices.

 

 

I encountered a setback while working on my website design. The initial concept I had in mind for the navigation menu didn’t align properly with my plan user responsiveness. Although it was a setback, I am determined to overcome this challenge and ensure that my website meets the desired expectations.

 

Week 13

the thirteenth year

  JULY 11th – 14th

 

I completed some Google Analytics tasks using WordPress plugins and Google Tag Manager. I transferred a few more of the university’s websites by integrating their newly assigned Google Tag into their HTML file.

ocean’s twelve

  JULY 5th – 7th

 

I began adding content to the From Slavery to Freedom in Texas Project website. After contacting the team of professors from UT and Prairie View, Marianne and I began inserting the story content they provided us with using the layout designed Luisa. I was introduced to Figma and WordPress’s Toolset plugin.

I also contacted a couple of clients to discuss WordPress. I also updated my email signature, and it came out pretty coo.

Week 11

ocean’s eleven

  JUNE 27th – 29th

 

I completed some Google Analytics tasks using Airtable. I was assigned to extrapolate data for all of the university’s websites by projecting the total number of user sessions over the course of a year. I originally calculated by hand, but ran into many mistakes, so I decided to optimize my workflow using Chat GPT-3. I began developing a Calculator Prompt for GPT. I originally though it would allow me work at a more efficient pace while also providing accurate results; however, I soon learned that Chat GPT – being an AI language model – can’t solve mathematic equations.

I also met with Stacy and LAITS Desktop Support for some training using WordPress’ user interface. After the meeting, I forwarded screenshots via Slack to help Desktop Support walkthrough any further questions they had.

 

Week 10

shang-chi and the legend of the ten rings

JUNE 20th – 22rd

 

I continued building my tic-tac-toe game using html, css, and javascript. I used source code editor, Visual Studio Code, and Google Chrome in order to display the game’s user interface.

I had trouble debugging the loop assigned for winning combinations. I am still troubleshooting and will hopefully have this solved soon.

 

UTFC Greenscreen Edits

Project: UTFC Image Sourcing
Notes: For the past few weeks, our team has been assigned with locating the original image sources for the UTFC greenscreen modules and gathering fresh public domain images. All of the photos for Course 2 for UTFC have been sourced and replaced by Adrian, Luisa, and I, and approvals and modifications for the replacements have begun to come in. The next step is to review and respond to each revision feedback. Some comments emphasize finding a brand-new image, while others discuss cropping and Photoshop adjustments that may be applied to the selected image to make it better. I included a spreadsheet I created down below.

 

UTFC Logo Design 

Project: Connexions Francophones Logo
Notes: For this project, I was assigned with developing keywords/symbols and sketches for the French Online Textbook logo. I’m redesigning my logo to be more in-tune with learning, people, and connections. The main goal of mine for this logo design is to create something timeless, advertiseable, and something like a trademark.
