Assignments

CP191: Round 1 Report and Reflection (Research)

I explored how wearable technology, like Fitbits and Apple Watches, impacts the physical activity of university students. Through literature reviews and trend analysis, I discovered that wearables boost activity levels initially but face engagement challenges over time. Reflecting on my findings, I plan to focus future research on tailoring wearable feedback to student lifestyles and integrating behavioral interventions to enhance long-term effectiveness

NS111: Location-Based Assignment in BA

During my visit to the Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales Bernardino Rivadavia in Buenos Aires, I had the chance to explore exhibits that deepened my understanding of geology and planetary science. Two exhibits stood out to me: a magnetite specimen and the El Toba meteorite. Observing the magnetite, I connected its magnetic properties and crystal structure to Earth’s tectonic history, gaining insight into how minerals record ancient geological shifts. The El Toba meteorite, on the other hand, revealed clues about planetary formation, highlighting the processes that shaped both Earth and other celestial bodies. These exhibits allowed me to appreciate how interconnected Earth’s systems are, linking local geology to broader planetary contexts, and reaffirmed the importance of evidence-based scientific inquiry in understanding our universe.

CS110: Designing a Scheduler

In October 2023, I developed a Task Scheduler application to optimize task management and resource allocation. Using Python, NumPy, and priority queues within a Jupyter Notebook environment, I implemented algorithms to automate scheduling through utility-based methods. This project allowed me to design a system that prioritizes tasks, allocates time slots efficiently, and tracks progress seamlessly. Through this assignment, I honed my skills in algorithm development and workflow optimization, while creating an intuitive platform that enhances productivity by simplifying task organization.
