Honestly, one of my specific long term goals is to create a board game, that uses a phone application as part of its game play.
Reflecting on my previous strengths and limitations, I still feel alot of what I previouisly felt. I think my biggest strength will be to learn fast. I think i am good at learning technical concepts reasonably well. I think my limitation will be managing time outside of class hours to dedicate to coding. I think I will need to figure out a routine to do work outside of class.
I think staying on top of material will be my main concern at this point. Same as my limitation, I think I will very much need to make sure I do not slip up too much time early in the week/ early in bootcamp. I feel if I can achieve this I should be fine.
I would want to develop my communication skills in times of stress. I think that I want to improve my ability to ask for help when I am stressed out. I think I am very aware of myself in these situation now, and have been able to work on this during foundation. So I think as long as I keep myself upto date on workload and communicate when I am struggling, I feel confident on my progress.
I think my expectations from the team are what I have had during foundation. They will be present when I am stuck or need help. I think outside of that we will be quite autonomous with our workload.
I think the most important objective that I need to do is book time to workoutside of classtime, and commit to it. I think I should also book time where I am not supposed to work, so that I also manage a balance without tipping over to either side.
My long term goal is to have a career that will give me oppertunities to work anywhere across the world.
I feel a strength of mine when it comes to learning is that I am able to take on a lot of content and sift through it and find information that is relevant to what is required of me to know and not get overwhelmed by information that is above my knowledge, and stick to what I need from resourses.
Biggest limitation for me is staying focused, and getting work done. I find that my biggest distraction can be my surroundings, and that I am not always in the most appropriate area to work. I am slowly findings what kinds of environments work better for me as well as, when during the day/week I am at my most effective.
Being more myself around people. I tend to find that in a professional setting, I can tend to become the shy/quiet person, which is me not being myself. I find in casual settings I am a different person. So I want to be able to find a balance of being me in a professional setting.
I think that i work best when I have people around me working too, helps keep me stay on task, so I think during bootcamp managing myself with be easier than foundation. How I intend to manage myself in foundation is I have options of people working from home, I am going to go work out from there place to help keep me working.
I think that I am definitely someone who might have trouble speaking up when I am struggling/ or falling behind. I intend to be completely open about how I am managing with my facilitators and talk with them if I am falling behind earlier rather than later.
I expect the team to be present.
In general, I do not have any regular appointments that need block-out times.
