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.

So close, but yet so far …

This is how far I am with my application ( Tabs ,Toolbar , Navigation Drawer and APIs).

2nd Day at immedia

My final day at immedia, and I do not regret the one week I spent around here I have gained so much from the day I came in

We learnt about discipline in the work environment , focus and keeping up with the pace when on duty

I began to grasp the various concepts of the framework, Angular JS  which is quite cool for styling web pages.

I would like to start by saying immedia is the best tech company ever!

They provided us with this priceless experience for free. We learned a lot and it inspired us to learn more.

They assigned us great mentors and the work environment is so great. Learning never ends.

Thank you immedia, for the Summer School. God Bless You!

It was really awesome spending the week with Geek Patrol, got to learn quite a bit from these guys. Being a Windows user, I learned how to troubleshoot some problems on a Mac.

It’s here ! the first day of summer school has finally arrived. My expectation? To fit in ! But to my surprise it was warm welcomes and a straight to the point work atmosphere, completely opposite from the vision I had to what it would be like.

Summer School Day1 , its only the beginning #AndroidDevelopment

I made two new friends that I hope I can keep contact with. I am so grateful I was able to have this learning experience and gain new information that I am definitely going to use in my career.

I Logged on to the Virtual Machine that was created which was Linux Based (Ubuntu) on putty. This Virtual machine had no Graphic user interface (GUI), at first it seem different using it but my mentor showed me and encouraged me to use command lines which I started to like.

Here I made an Ethernet cable myself and I was checking it If it was working or not. Guess What?? I was connected to the internet, meaning it was working correctly.

JQuery

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.

I was given a task yesterday, so I have continued to complete the task. It was challenging. I have learnt a lot from photoshop 2017. I have also attended the mind shift talk today which I have learnt and understood of what the real world is and that technology changes all the time. I have learnt a lot of interesting facts.

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.
