6th week


This week started a little early since we had the "Get Connected" event at MEDA on Saturday. The event consisted on helping low income families understand the importance of technology and all the great advantages that it has to offer. People had to complete three workshops to be able to participate in a raffle for computers and Google cardboards. I personally had to help connect people to the internet with an amazing deal of only $9.99 monthly, I liked the event mostly because it gave me a sense of how older folks do not know a lot of the features that electronic devices come with.

On Monday we had to do data entry about the event on Saturday, we used Excel and we worked in teams to do it faster. Tuesday was very interesting because we did financial capability were we learned about our budget and everything to get prepared for the future. We also had the opportunity to pull out our credit score. We also started coding with Java and I loved it.

Thursday we had a guest speaker from TechSF were she explained about the programs they have, we also worked on tech support. Alicia and I are currently working on notebook, we are trying to install Ubuntu after realizing there was no way to install Windows without a Cd room.
