Week 1
Orientation/background studies: This week started out with orientation and getting familiar with my surroundings in the lab. I was challenged with the task of creating an educational game to help children grades 6-8 with middle school arithmetic. I was also able to study more on different programming languages as well.
Week 2
Professional Website/ NSBC conference: I started sketching out my initial design for my website. By doing that I would have a much easier time adding the content. On Wednesday I left for Atlanta, Georgia where I participated in the National Society for Blacks in Computing Conference where I was able to network with many graduate level students and professors from other institutions. Throughout my stay at the conference I was able to think long and hard about the possibilities of going to graduate school and the benefits it would offer.
