This project is focus on the evaluation of our practicality on the implementation of different kind of statistical analysis, it required thorough understanding in each type of analysis to apply it in the dataset analysis. This project is also a great revision for us to recap the knowledge that we have learnt before especially the final examination is just around the corner. As we are doing this project, there are multiple assignments of other subjects clashed with it and there is a lot of assessment is waiting for us to face it. I am truly appreciated and thank to our lecturer Dr. Nies, she is a very enthusiastic lecturer who always helps us a lot while we are facing trouble and advices us to stay strong as we are in bad emotion. Besides, I also very grateful for my team members' tolerance and guides, they helped me a lot while I am feeling struggle and stress in the project, I am very sorry about any kind of mistake that I have made along the journey in these two semesters. I wish all the best for all of us at every time, everywhere.

Industry Revolution 4.0 is just around the corner, let ourselves on the cutting edge of the technological era is our most significant vision since we are Computer Science students. After taking the course TIS, I learnt a lot of basic theories of this technology such as hardware & software of computer, network, cloud computing et cetera, this course also leading me to explore the latest technology in this modern era especially during the industrial talks. TIS also introducing the Microsoft Azure which make me notice about the period of technological singularity in human history is getting shorter, it means the revolution of industry or technology is getting closer and closer with us. We are now heading towards a world of artificial intelligent so we should have great information system and information technology knowledge especially cloud computing, and TIS is a great course which helped me a lot at the road of exploring the future technology :)

           After I take this program, I understood a lot of knowledge about technology and information system as a basic of my dream future career which is cyber security engineer, I want to make the world without any internet criminal such as hacking, virus-attacking and browser hijacking. Of course, dream is just a dream, I need to always improve myself anytime especially in this technology field because it keeps refreshing time to time, also I should always set a goal for my academic progression to make sure that I have a great performance whether in soft or hard skills. Overall, I hope that I can earn a strong foundation for my future before I take part in industry.

            The first project of this course, which is design thinking project, made me understood some theory of the process of making a program or software, this project helped me know about the process of problem solving in software or programming building. Besides, I also learned about the importance of team work because building a new system or software is not easy with one mate’s effort only. In addition, I realized that the process of problem solving is applicable in many other, I can say that it such a universal needed step to overcome a problem. For example, in car industry, if we want to make a new electric car model, we should determine the problem at first which might be the air pollution issue, then we identify what is the best design that we could make with our teammate within the process of brainstorming, prototyping and testing. Thus, this project helped me to figure out that how important of design thinking before a great product birth. 

            Honestly, in order to improve my potential in industry, I must practice my communication skills because this is the most significant skills in team-working. Hence, I should be brave while taking face-to-face with strangers such as my new classmate or lecturer. Furthermore, I should work hard in English writing skills too. As I mentioned in chapter presentation, we need to do a documentation for our team as a final report or description of the program and it also acts as a user manual for our client. Therefore, a good writing can provide a clear instruction to user, operator and programmer. As conclusion, l must take the attention away from my weakness, always contest with myself to build an excellent personality and potential of mine.

          Human being, as the caliph on earth, showed that we are able to change the world with our endeavor. Look at the timeline of history, before the Industrial Revolution, production was made through simple tools and with the contribution of family members at homes or workshops nearly in of the whole world. After the 1^st Industrial Revolution, production was moved to machines and factories, it has shown that humans are keep improving their live. Moreover, Industrial Revolution keep on processing until it revolutionizes the technologies of electricity, mass production, digital and computing, there are the most significant root of the birth of modernization era right now.  

          Every Industrial Revolution brought tremendous changes to civilization of human being, we are now heading to the era of artificial intelligent, IR4.0, technology changed our live rapidly. Nowadays, our live surrounded by technology goods thoroughly since IR3.0, the 3^rd Industrial Revolution in digital and computing field, especially during the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic. Overall, while we are enjoying the benefits that technology brought to us, we should appreciate the convenience of technology products but not addicted on it, we also should not abuse it to implement any illegal activities, use it in right ways can keep harmony in our society.

“Operations keeps the lights on, strategy provides a light at the end of the tunnel, but project management is the train engine that moves the organization forward.” This quote by Joy Gumz stated that the project management is the most significant process for succeeding an exemplary project. In the industrial talk 2, it discussed about the detailed information of project management. Obviously, knowing about the management clearly is able to smoothen our process of a project, every perfect project must have a great project management. Thence, I have already learned that before I implement a project, I should have a sufficient preparation at first such as gather all information and ideas that needed for the project, also take the attention of these important roots of project which are time, cost, quality, scope, risk and benefit to ensure the project can complete with my expected target or goal.

There’s nothing will stop us to get a great job even we all are facing the COVID-19 pandemic if we have been prepared everything during our university study years. Before we join into the industry, we must not just focus our time on studying our academics stuff only because a great CGPA of study does not mean all high-salary industry will hire those from us who have excellent result in academic field only. In contrast, we also need to widen our experience in society in order to improve our soft skill by taking part in various types of activities actively during our university study. To the extent that, having hard skills is not enough for us to be employed but it merely just helps us to get a decent result in degree. Overall, we must be balanced at both hard skills and soft skills to increase our job employability.
