Week 6

 Part 1:

    I was reading the capstone website from the previous cohort. One that caught my eye off the jump was for sure game development, videogames are a hobby of mine so combining school and my hobby could certainly be neat. I saw a neat presentation on a previous capstone where a student made a MOBA and used free artwork for his game. Super cool as he said he had experience making games previously. As for what I discussed with my teammates, they were interested in making a tool, that you can sell to a corporation or government. One in particular that was brought up is a dating app for specific interests, whether it be programming, dancing, gaming, etc. But we for sure are not set on a certain topic. 

Part 2:

    So far for our final presentations, we are sort of planning out how we want to tackle this from a production side. We figured out that we want to do voiceovers and are trying to figure out how to make our videos more engaging, as comments from Professor Tao on previous works suggested that the videos should be more than just reading off of Google slides. 

    I learned more about how to pose argumentative questions, more about stakeholder arguments, and ethical frameworks. I learned more about paraphrasing, paraphrasing vs quoting, and strategies for paraphrasing. I got a glimpse of what is to come in CST 338 Software Design and realized I need to practice Java as at my community college I mainly programmed in C++. I learned a lot about cover letters and resumes as well as jobs in general. I learned how to prompt engineer more efficiently for my essays as well.
