Week 12 Posting - Final Week

  What did you find enjoyable or not about this assignment? The assignment was enjoyable because it provided a practical, hands-on opportunity to deepen my understanding of printers and multifunction devices, essential tools in personal and professional settings. Learning how to set up, configure, and troubleshoot different devices was essential as it directly applies to real-world scenarios, enhancing my technical skills. Was it helpful to you in your current job? Yes, each assignment was helpful for my educational use. Understanding how to set up and maintain printers properly has improved my efficiency in managing office equipment. This knowledge not only saves time but also guarantees smoother operations and better productivity in the workplace. Can you see yourself blogging in the future when it isn't required for an assignment? I can see myself blogging in the future, even when it isn't required for an assignment. Blogging provides a platform to share knowledge, experienc

Week 11 Posting - Printers and Multifunctional Devices

 Brainstorming an enhancement for an operating system, doing research, and reading everyone's ideas were interesting topics this week. Setting up and configuring different devices within Windows enhances technical skills and self-sufficiency. Diagnosing and fixing common printer problems minimizes downtime and frustration, maintaining productivity. With this knowledge, I can choose the right printer or device that best suits my needs, whether for personal, educational, or professional use. 

Week 9 Posting - Memory Upgrade

  The video "A+ Computer Repair Training Course - Computer Notebooks - Memory Upgrade - Lesson 1" taught me a lot. One of the things that I learned and refreshed my mind on was how to replace the memory card and upgrade the laptop's memory. In the video, we learn how to replace memory cards and know the difference between some RAM cards like DDR, DDR2, and   DDR3. It is important to know which ones are compatible with the motherboard in case we want to update some of the components on our laptops. DDR2 operates faster than DDR, while DDR3 builds upon DDR2 with additional advancements in speed, power efficiency, and capacity. 

Week 8 Posting - Internet Protocol

  It was interesting to learn about Internet Protocol. IPv4   uses a 32-bit address, while IPv6 uses a 128-bit address . This means that IPv6 offers 1,028 times more addresses than IPv4, solving the problem of "running out of addresses" problem. Or are we going to run out of addresses one day? Technology constantly grows; however, we have sufficient space for endless devices and networks to connect to the Internet directly. I am also excited to share my milestone paper and read what you all choose to write. 

Week 10 Posting - Mobile Devices

 I had fun with this week's assignment. We had to pretend a scenario where we drafted a memo. To teach someone how to use a mobile device, putting down words is something I have to work on since I suck at explaining things. Also, it was interesting to read the discussion forum and hear different opinions on mobile operating systems. We all have different experiences and needs; sharing these opinions was great. 

Week 7 Posting - Windows Troubleshooting

 I learned more about the blue screen of death. I did not know that when a screen goes blue or black, the term for it is called the blue screen of death. Debugging and troubleshooting are essential skills for developers and IT professionals. They assist in identifying and resolving issues, improving system stability, and improving performance. Debugging and troubleshooting in the Windows system will involve identifying and fixing software or hardware problems, which Daniel Pearson explains in his video "Windows Debugging and Troubleshooting." It was a very informative video for this week's assignment. 

Week 6 Posting - File Systems

 It was interesting this week to learn more about file systems, how much they have helped, and how much more they could change as we advance in technology. Learning more about AI is interesting because it allows me to see everyone's opinion and things being created, and I wonder how it will be in the future. AI is becoming complex, and I fear that one day, AI will become more intelligent than us. In specific areas of technology, it would be great for something like AI to think better than us, but what happens when our brains are too small to understand AI? It is an exciting topic to discuss.
