Completed a Web Development Course on Client Side Today

This morning, I completed a Web Development Course by Coursera, that was sponsored by MDEC for the jobless or unemployed graduates in IT. I took about 2-3 hours to complete the assignment for the final project before submission. There were 6 modules of several videos to follow. Each module is supposed to take 1 week to complete.

Below are my grades for the total quiz and assignments.

So, my overall score was 91%. Here, I learnt the basics to HTML5, CSS and Javascript. I will next proceed to Facebook Marketing and then Full Stack Development if time permits, as I have until end of the year to learnt up the many courses available on Coursera. The web development was taught by a software engineer and a Computer Science professor of University of California. The good thing about this is that I can learn at my own pace and convenience. Applied knowledge is power.

This is quite random but I just like this 1980 painting by David Hockney that’ll be auctioned soon. From 2nd sis in the UK 🇬🇧. #davidhockney #davidhockneyart

Above is a lovely picture from my Instagram of a painting by David Hockney. It was Whatsapp to me by my second sister who is lecturing English in a UK University together with her hubby. Both of them have doctorates, Ph.D. in their respective fields. That's it for this blog post. Stay safe and stay at home.

Sponsored Course by GLOW, Penjana, MDEC

Our Malaysian government encourages continuous IT learning. MDEC stands for Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation. Starting from last Saturday till Monday yesterday, I attended a 3 full-day course by Global Online Workforce (GLOW PENJANA) from 9am - 5:30pm, with short breaks in between. I have learnt to make a logo and bid on Freelancer.com where I was given 100 free bids to work on.

Here is the link that I can share from Coursera on Javascript programming at https://coursera.org/share/e662a9625f4f963d379eaed897366824. This is one of the many courses that you can choose from and it is sponsored till the end of the year, starting from May, during the Covid-19 initial outbreak.

I hope to go into Full Stack Development later after this course and also on Facebook Marketing. There will be certificate given for each completed course that you can show to your potential clients. So, this will increase your credibility and applied knowledge creates wealth.

Finally, I would like to share the "Good Morning" Instagram photo from my account as seen below:

Stay safe in this pandemic and pray always for protection and safety.

Lesson 2 of Basic Excel 365 by Diana Tan

Here is another amateur lesson 2 on Excel 365 using Windows 10 operating system or platform. My apologies for the mistake: It should be 5 decimal PLACES; not 5 decimal points. Guess I was a little tired from watching so much Youtube and Zoom videos that I was looking at the decimal point and mentioned the wrong keyword instead. This was created using Camtasia and I hit the function key F10 to stop the recording immediately. The upload is automatic to Youtube for verification, and thereafter, I edited the thumbnail using a screenshot of my laptop with the green liquid that makes an awesome background. 💥💖💦

Now don't get me wrong. Being a Youtuber takes consistent effort and lots of time and energy. More and more people are jumping on this Youtubing bandwagon to leverage on the viewership during this Covid-19 lockdown. This is especially so, when you have limited budget and have to DIY (Do It Yourself). The beauty of DIY is that you have more control of what you need and know how to tweak the Youtube algorithm for more viewership and being found. Besides being a noob Youtuber, I have been a blogger for umpteenth years, earning a measly US dollars now and then from sponsored posts and such. With these said, I hope you like this blog post too and do watch the Excel 365 video specially curated here for your viewing pleasure and learning environment. 👩👧🧒

Stay safe at home, peeps! 😀😁😂
