NUR ATIFAH BINTI DIN

First and foremost, there are lot of thoughts that run in my mind throughout learning this subject and completing the project of Students Performance data. First and foremost, I would not lie that Probability and Statistical Data is one of the subjects that I am most struggling with. However, throughout completing the projects by using R Studio and writing the report, I'm getting a better and clearer view of why we are using different methods in completing the calculation and test statistic.

Before this, I'm very bad at using R Studio, getting confuse on how to enter the data and how to use it in the coding. Fortunately, I was able to polish my skills and improve myself in the usage of R Studio on how to read the data from the excel file, pass the values into the functions that we wrote and making sure that what type of errors have occurred when the program could not run. To have a better understanding, I keep searching on YouTube and Coding Websites to have a better idea on how to solve the problems and how to import only certain tables from the original .xlsx file.

Furthermore, I was able to learn on how to write the code of the regression function and how to generate t-test function. Therefore, I was really glad that I could have the opportunity to do the regression part because by having this chance, I would able to fix the weak side of mine.

Last but not least, as I said before, this course is one of the most struggling courses for me. However, by the help and guidance from the helpful lecturer and my benevolent friends, I am able to survive this course throughout this semester.

What is your goal/dream concerning your course/program?

• My goal is to be able to grab the job as a Software Engineer in big companies like Google, Samsung, Dell and Huawei. I want to prove to the whole world that Malaysian graduates or graduates from Malaysia are as competent and capable as the graduates from other big countries. Therefore, being able to be the backbone of the success of these big companies, is a stepping stone in achieving my dream.

What is the action/improvement/plan necessary for you to improve your potential in the industry?

• I always take part in completing the assignments which require us to use applications and software which we are not completely familiar with, but frequently used by experts in current industry. This is really important because the technology keep expanding and revolving rapidly. Hence, I must have the abilities to use the latest and up to date technology to be the most suitable and worthiest candidate when applying jobs in companies.

Your opinion on whether this subject contributes to your knowledge on specific area?

• This subject really contributes a lot to my knowledge in multiple areas. For example, before this, I thought cloud computing and cloud storage are the same thing. However, even though both are performed on cloud platforms, they don't provide the same functions and services in specific. Therefore, throughout the whole AWS Academy Modules, I was able to understand more about cloud computing services and was able to apply them in my group project.

Acknowledgement for your lecturer

• I was really grateful to have Dr. Layla Hasan as our lecturer to guide us in this course. I really appreciate Dr.'s kindness, considerations and efforts to make sure all of us could understand all of the lectures and could finish all of the assignments throughout this semester.
