Status Update - Programming

• So far, my group and I have completed several lessons via kahnacademy.org and it is going very well. I'm already starting to think more like a programmer on a daily basis.
• I feel that we need to cover a lot more material in the time remaining. We have only just scratched the surface, and I want to dive deeper into the wonders of the computer language.
• This work is primarily for myself. I signed up for this group to enhance my skills in programming for my college courses. However, I am going to begin talking to Ian and his group about helping with the production of their video game.

Plan to Program

• Goal: To become familiar with Python 3.2.3 before the beginning of my fall semester at UC Berkeley (CS 61A)
• I am currently using the "Khan Academy Tutorial" in Computer Science to help point me in the right direction. Additionally, my friend, Ian May, is guiding me along the fundamentals of programming simultaneously.
• So far, I have completed a couple lessons and plan to continue my progress until I have finished the entire tutorial. Once this is done, I will further my studies with my peers and continue to search for more databases to expand my knowledge. 
• My presentation will consist of basic processes in the Python language. This way, I can not only show that I can do fundamental actions, but I can also instruct my classmates.

AP Plan - As a whole

Preparing for the test has been beneficial for me in a lot of ways. Although I'm not taking the exam next week, I continue to take part in the practices held in class. I have learned how to study for exams with peers in the future, and I am touching up on my memory of the literary terms. Out of everything we have gone over in the past week or so, I feel that the literary terms will support my studies the greatest in my future college studies. Knowing the fundamental literary terms is absolutely necessary at the university level.
