Documentation
In this class, we were taught the process of creative design and iteration, as well as took part in said process, as well as perform our own research and present our findings. I was part of a group which attempted to verbally survey large groups of students in the hopes of determining what students’ opinions were of Burnet Woods, a park nearby UC which has been used little by students.
As we surveyed students, I gained experience in the process of primary research, not only through the delivery of the survey, but also the design of the survey questions themselves. In addition, I acquired insight into the design process, helping to develop my design skills and creativity, both of which were put to the test in the design and creation of our group’s posters, of which I contributed heavily.
Using the experience I have gained through this course, I hope to be more prepared for when I perform research as a computer scientist. Surveying the students has given me first-hand research experience that will prove to be valuable in the future. Not only that, but the design experience will help to improve my creativity in problem solving, something that I enjoy and is critical to my future career as a computer scientist.
