My Virtual Summer School Web Development Experience

My Web Development Week at Immedia Summer School. This blog post described the task I was given, my experience, the challenges I faced and the lessons I learned, and the experience I gained.

First Day Vibes

Creating my first application on android studio, was a blast. I’ve learnt so much. I still cant believe how fast the WiFi is!

First day of school

I think this is the first time I have been more excited than nervous to be thrown into a new group of people and into a field I have not even smelt for 13 years, all in the pursuit of developing a new skill.

DAY 5: API and Android Development

Coming to Summer School has taught me so much, both within a real working environment and in terms of the programming skills and techniques used in the IT working industry.

Last Day: immedia Summer School

My last day at immedia Summer School was filled with a mixture of emotions. For one – sadness for the obvious reason that it will be my last day here for at least the next year.

Day 3: immedia Summer School

I am getting too used to the above average Wi-Fi as I find myself having a harder time dealing with my Wi-Fi when I get home. Overall a fun a productive day.

Last day :(

Special thanks to my mentor Nosipho, she gave me everything I needed to know. We covered grid views, recycler views, toolbars, tabs, navigation drawer, fragments, activities, intent, and Rest APIs, it is all up to me now.

Mission Accomplished

Today is the last day I’m a bit sad because this has been such a wonderful experience :). I’ve met such wonderful people and learned a lot, both technical and soft skills which I will apply to my career in the future.

Final Day

A big thanks to Selene and her team for giving us the opportunity to grow and to see how companies really expect from students who are about to step into the working environment. We love you guys!

Day 1

Feeling like a “computer surgeon”, I have connected a new hard drive, power supply, graphics card, networks card and RAM. Overall I would call it a successful day.

DAY 2: API Development

I am really enjoying this on-the-job working experience. Watching how the team at Immedia collaborate and communicate with each other is impressive.
