Time Strategies

As I stated in my earlier blog post, I am really wanting to improve my time management. I don’t believe I am bad at it but I do become worrisome and panic a lot which then stresses me out and I end up losing track of time. I like that this course has various ways of keeping track and up to date with everything and the due dates. I also like that it is extremely detailed!

Introduction

I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area, in a small town called Daly City. It is the largest city in San Mateo with population of 100,000 people (City of Daly City). Hence, it was a tightly knit community where I spent most of my early childhood. In the early 2000’s, I moved to the East Bay along the San Joaquin-Sacramento River Delta in a small town called Antioch. I spent my formative years in the area and was studying in high school called the Deer Valley. I felt the environment at Deer Valley and extra-curricular activities were conducive to study. What is more, it is one of the best state schools in California, with  good academic structure, teachers, staff, and facilities. I finished my studies there and went on to pursue my dream of a career in sales. Upon assessing my strengths and consulting with my teachers, I understood that I have strong communication skills and can find approach to most of people. For this reason, I suppose I would be able to success in the sales and ...

Week 5 Analysis: The Humanoid Robot

“Moxon’s Master” is a story written by Ambrose Bierce which tells the story of Moxon, the master, who creates a chess-playing robot. Moxon is developing a sentient conscious machine, one that can think and possesses intelligence. Although the narrator states that robots have no brains or source of thinking, he is trying to create a which he believes will be capable of thinking, acting and possessing consciousness- a robot or automaton which will be able to perform actions independent of its creator – the idea of a humanoid robot. Moxon seems to live an isolated life and the representation of the robot is what he wishes. The robot represents human cognition and social interaction, that Moxon may be experiencing.  In the story, Moxon plays a game of chess with the robot and wins. It is apparent the robot is mad, and kills Moxon. This part of the story is very interesting because Moxon states, “ definition of ‘life’ the activity of a machine is included – there is nothing in th...

Growth Mindset

The growth mindset is your own philosophy. What you think about yourself is the foundation of your perspective. It is your mindset, your journey. It is what allows you to embrace yourself. I am fairly judgmental on myself especially with school, as I am one to always feel I am doing something wrong along the way. This is completely different than when I am doing some form of recreational activity. As a learner, I find it best for me to work in quiet. It is difficult for me to get things done in a loud environment. It took me some time to realize this, but it has become my number one rule of thumb: in a silence space, you’ll find your pace. I do consider myself a fast learner but there are certain things I can never grasp. For example, APA format  is still something I struggle with and I have done over 20x. Hopefully in this semester, I learn more about my mind growth as it tends to expand and broaden throughout the semesters. Personally, I like to learn more about time manage...
