Corleone Diaries 13/10/2009

Last week my team Corleone's and I, had our project assessment passed after correcting the minor defects that had been found and then having it scrutinised and given the all clear by luke our SQA.
From my own point of view I think we have a fantastic team with us all contributing greatly to the project in our own ways. I myself am learning so much from my two team members as my base knowledge of coding is nowhere near as good as Ashley or Michaels, but both of these persons are teaching me a great deal about coding, using web pages and html documents, all of which will really be of use to me in my job as an I.T. Co-Ordinator as I would like to become more of a technician. At this point I would also like to add that the morning course with colin, learning basic html coding over the last three weeks has improved tremendously my understanding of coding and I think in the future this should be incorporated in the first year at the beginning of the HNC/HND course as it really does help in understanding basic coding. This thought is also the thought of Tracey Johnson who is also on the same course and who like me had never done coding.
The idea of the project being done in teams has appealed to me and I believe it is working as their is good motivation and competion to see who can do the best, with good banter and teasing during assessment marking etc between all groups (real good atmosphere amongst us all, with us all being able to have agood laugh and joke as well as getting on with the serious side of things). In our team we have divided the tasks up amongst ourselves and given tasks to who we think best to do a particular task and this has worked really well, but as I become more competent at coding I will be looking to be given a coding task as this is something I want to learn to do well.
