My First Week as a Mission Techies

Due to my experience on mission techies or the MEDA program. I have learn to the basic of IT essentials of hardware and software for this week. got to learn what is inside on a computer and learn what the computer is a fun, ongoing, interactive experience for the start of my mission techies/MEDA program experence.

My First Week as a Mission Techies

the first two weeks I learned now stuff with the mission techies it was great experiences. When you working in  group you don't feel left out they more welcome you in the group even you don't know them they are still good team meats. We were given a bunch of computers and we were tasked to get them organized by make, model and condition of equipment. We did the skill chart and the lovey dovey  orientation in the beginning. now we are doing the project, i have a lot of fun to cam her and working with others.

My first week in the Mission Techies

My first week at Mission tech was good but, I was also overwhelmed  because it my first time learning something new. I learned the names of a component and seen the inside a system software. I'm still getting use to this class, I just need to listen or ask if i don't understand. I'm doing a project that I never did in my life,so it was a surprise for me. I learned about other classmates goals and dreams what they want to do and how to accomplish them.

My First Week as a Mission Techies

  The first week as an intern at Mission Techies has been going well. Learned basic components on hardware and software. Some projects included identifying hardware components, looking up specs and other info on laptops. We worked in teams with the other interns at Mission Techies. Everything was okay, but unfortunately a few mishaps occurred. With the exception that we hardly know each other enough to have great chemistry in a team. From my observation I saw that the other interns demonstrated hard work and good communication. Though I believe, and many others could agree as well, we can do better once we get more chances to work together. Overall I enjoy the program and looking forward to learning more and working with others.

My First Week

I came into the Mission Techies Program not knowing anything about the tech we're learning. Four days in and I've learned a bit about Hardware and all the important components that make a computer run. I'm eager to learn everything I can. My favorite activities we've done so far are the Tech Inventory and labeling all the components inside the Dell desktop computer. I really like all the hands on training, it makes it all the better when it comes to learning.

My first Week in the Mission Techies Program.


This first week has been a interesting one, we have mainly learn about the basic of hardware and software. We have also done tech inventory, which has been fun and interesting, because for the first time we got to work in groups and we also got introduced to how things work around here. This have been good activities for all of us to get to know each other since we are going to be working together for 3 months.  I've had moments were I have been stressed a little because of all the information, but most of all I have enjoyed class and working with everyone. This week has been a good week, I am looking forward to the other eleven.

My First Week as a Mission Techie

During my first week as a mission techie, I learned quite a few things. We first started by learning how to inventory and catalog equipment. We were given a bunch of computers and we were tasked to get them organized by make, model, and condition of the equipment. Then when we were done with that task, we moved onto organizing them based on which laptops were in working condition and which ones needed parts. The days that followed were filled with power point presentations that covered the basics of hardware and software. We also tore down a desktop in real time and had to identify all the parts that were inside of it. Starting from the main components like the hard drive and power supply to the individual wires that connected everything. This was a great activity, it helped a lot of us familiarize ourselves with the different components that are needed to make a computer function properly.

My First Week as a Mission Techies.

My first week as a mission techie? Still trying to wrap my head around it. It's a whole new world for me.I almost feel like I've been dropped in a foreign country trying to learn a new language and customs. But that's the whole point of a challenge, to see if you can sink or swim. But overall this first week has been exciting and exhilarating. Learning about hardware hasn't been my strong suit so far but mistakes are just reasons to improve. Looking forward to adapting to this tech world.

My First Week

So far I'm having a good experience here at Mission Techies. I'm learning about Dell System Units and I have to make my own using cardboard and paper. So far I haven't started but I have a pretty good idea on how I'm going to make it. I feel like I'm going to enjoy this program because its something new. I don't know much about computers but I am sure that I will learn a lot here at this program.

My first week as a mission techie

During my first two weeks of the MEDA program, I already got to know the whole class as a team. I enjoyed meeting and learning about everyone's goals and future wants. I came into the program pretty clueless about technology, and so far I can say I can identify majority of the components in a desktop computer. We also worked as a team to do inventory on almost 150 computers and everyone understood their duties and roles that they were assigned. The best part of the program is that I am learning a lot everyday and working as a team has been a great experience.

my 1st week...

Well.. I have no idea what they are talking about so far. The words?! What in the world do they mean? how are they even pronounced? So far I have learned how to do power points! Yayyy! I've also learned about data entry with computers, which was a bit confusing but quickly got the hang of it. Easy peasy. I am not good at public speaking but slowly getting over my fear about it. That's it for now.

My first week as a mission techie

During the first week of my Mission tech experience I was excited to learn about computers. We started off by introducing each other and sharing what we know about computer tech. Then suddenly we where hit by a book that we needed to read that would prepare us for the next tech session. It wasn't so bad only about sixty pages, just kidding it was a lot but I was determined to finish a chapter due to my high interest in tech. So far I've been learning so much that I feel empowered already and I know I can make my life better if I work hard enough. I feel like I'm in the right spot and if you like tech this will be the perfect spot for you to learn or perfect your skills!

Mission techies 1st week

my first week in the mission techies has been a new experience for me, I don't know much about technology besides the basics. It interest me because since I don't know much I'm like a blank disc. I can be thought everything from scratch. There have been some difficulties for me specially with the terminology and figuring out where things are in a motherboard since I had never looked at one. After the first few classes I can say I look forward to learning as much as possible in the program, From software to Hardware and even coding. I want to see what catches my eye the most to possibly pursue it in the near future.
