went to the uni for the last time this semester, doing a marketing research project in the behavioral lab and also met my classmates (i was so happy to see them, we don't have much time together with all this online learning stuff and sometimes i feel like we really miss the student experience) today i'm finishing my last assignment this semester (it's driving me crazy tbh) and tomorrow i'll take my last exam (english). really hope to pass at the first try. wish me luck guys 🙌🏻

[arabellasdoingthework]

Maybe my fifth try at studyblr. First time was early COVID era lol. Do interact! Maybe some accountability will help me stay more consistent!! It should also help that it's still like 5th week of lectures, not a crazy time like finals lol

Today's tasks:

Revisit Online Marketing notes

Web Analytics Notes

Write Information Law notes based off slides

Play BOTW

Was thinking about eleven year old Fawn Spots Harry and made myself laugh because he would be so angry that technology doesn’t work at Hogwarts.

Full on “What do you mean Olympus has cell service and the middle of Scotland doesn’t?! It’s not even the same plane of fucking existence and calls aren’t even long distance!” Little man has not been more than a phone call away from his family since he was adopted and he is not coping well, but beyond that the lack of online databases, easy way to compile notes and write the eight million essays they’re assigned, and actual entertainment that isn’t ’dangerous flying dodgeball’ (which he does love tbh but still not everyone does) would drive him up the wall. Fuck the lack of things like highlighters and binders would piss him off. ��

He would show up with a spiral notebook and a mechanical pencil and a pureblood child would pass out from shock. He writes his family constantly begging for any and all stationary they can send. He uses breaks to type up last term’s notes and introduces the first final study guide in Times New Roman into Hogwarts and makes a killing off of selling them. The older pureblood students beg on bended knee for help making their own and the muggleborns realize oh shit they can corner the market per year and subject. Harry will drag Hogwarts into the modern age if he has to do so kicking and screaming.

Here are seven ways to make programming more engaging for beginners.

Introduction

For newcomers, programming might be frightening. For many, the new material's syntax, logic, and sheer amount might be depressing. Nonetheless, programming doesn't have to be very difficult or tiresome. Programming can be made more engaging and fulfilling by incorporating innovative, enjoyable, and useful methods. This article will examine seven methods for improving novice programmers' engagement, which will make learning programming easier and more pleasurable.

1. Start With Visual Programming Tools

Start with visual programming tools like Scratch, Blockly, or Tynker before writing complex code. Using these platforms, novices can drag and drop code blocks to construct simple programs, games, and animations. Visual tools make learning more interactive and enjoyable by breaking down complicated programming concepts and provide instantaneous visual feedback.

Benefits:

Improves understanding of programming fundamentals.

Allows newcomers to see the effects of their efforts immediately.

Encourages creativity through cartoons and games.

2. Focus On Interactive Learning Platforms

Students can write code directly in their browsers and see the results in real time with interactive classes offered by platforms like Codecademy, Khan Academy, and freeCodeCamp. These platforms often provide assistance or instant feedback and break down programming into manageable tasks. Interactive learning helps users solve difficulties and keeps the learning process moving forward while lowering irritation.

Benefits:

Immediate feedback allows for easy error correction.

Lessons are organised into convenient parts.

Gamified learning systems can help to sustain engagement.

3. Work On Real-Life Projects Early

Learning programming through real-world applications increases its relevance and fun factor. Novices can concentrate on projects that pique their interest, such creating a simple app, automating a tedious task, or creating a personal website. Students get a feeling of purpose from real-world projects, which piques their interest in coding and makes them more enthusiastic about it.

Benefits:

Improves understanding of theoretical concepts.

Increases confidence as students create actual things.

Offers a clear purpose and a sense of accomplishment.

4. Learn Through Games

Learning programming can be facilitated by creating or playing games. Some examples of platforms and games designed specifically for teaching programming are CodeCombat, Robocode, and CheckiO. Through the resolution of code puzzles, students advance in these games that transform coding assignments into adventures.

Benefits:

Creates a fun and competitive learning atmosphere.

Encourages critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

Engages students who may find standard lessons unappealing.

5. Incorporate Pair Programming

When two programmers work together on a single task, it's called pair programming. Real-time code reviews are performed by one person after it has been written. Through discussion and shared knowledge, this collaborative learning approach helps students acquire problem-solving methods while also making programming more socially engaging.

Benefits:

Promotes teamwork and communication skills.

Provides fast feedback and reduces errors.

Helps to overcome learning plateaus through shared expertise.

6. Celebrate Small Wins

Programming can occasionally seem like a laborious process with little payoff, especially when faced with challenging problems. It's crucial to acknowledge small accomplishments in order to stay motivated. Acknowledging successes, no matter how small, can give much-needed morale support.

Benefits:

Encourages an optimistic approach to learning.

Recognising progress helps to boost confidence.

Reinforces a growth mentality, increasing learners’ resilience.

7. Join Coding Communities

Learning to program could be more enjoyable if you're a part of a helpful group. Newcomers can participate in local coding meetings and online forums like Stack Overflow and GitHub. These websites offer opportunities for collaboration, mentoring, and inspiration from people who share similar interests.

Benefits:

Access to a plethora of common knowledge.

Promotes collaboration on open-source initiatives.

Creates a network of mentors and peers to share experiences and insights.

Conclusion

By using these suggestions, learning to program doesn't have to be a daunting task; instead, it can be interesting and fun. In order to keep beginners interested in programming and inspired, we at the School of Coding & AI employ a variety of strategies, including interactive tools, real-world projects, and community involvement.

Something that always annoys me is the idea only 1 language learning method works. Which is not true. While it may be possible that, for a particular individual, only a few out of many study methods may work well enough for That Individual to make progress and stay motivated... that doesn't mean all the other study methods won't work for anyone else out there, or that those few methods will work for every other given person.

Obviously if you've been studying a while, then you already figured out what kinds of things work for you and don't. If you're a beginner, just wading into studying?

I would suggest you simply look for study methods that: 1. Teach you new things regularly, 2. Review and practice things you've learned, 3. Include studying things you need for your particular goals (for example if your goal is to read X book then the study materials at some point should involve reading practice and some words the book contains, if your goal is to talk about Y then the study materials should include some information about pronunciation and words you'll need to be able to say).

As you can imagine, a TON of study materials will meet these requirements. And you can study a given skill in a LOT of ways.

(Reading is my focus lol so just for reading, a beginner might: do vocabulary study with lists or conversations with native speakers or watching shows and looking words up or listening to dialogues with a transcript like in a textbook or graded readers or a picture book with word labels in the target language or a video game with labelled objects in target language, all of those things as long as your vocabulary is improving or reading practice is happening would help you make progress). So to improve reading skill as a beginner: you could study with a textbook, a podcast with transcript, a classroom or tutor with words written down in target language (like TPRS), a video game, a TV show and a translate app on your phone, a friend you talk with (who either writes words down or you look up words you hear with a translate app), a friend you text with, srs flashcards like anki (provided there's text) etc. As long as there's new words, and/or you're practicing reading, the study method may work. If it works will come down to if you can stay motivated doing it regularly, and make sure you regularly learn some new things and review/practice things you've already studied.

So consider those things when you see people selling a study method as a product (especially when it's costing you money). Consider if it teaches you NEW things, and are those new things related to your goals, and how MUCH new stuff will it teach you before you finish it? Consider if it provides review or practice, or if you can use it's materials to review on your own making up your own method, or if you'll need to do separate review/practice.

So examples:

LingQ. Can it teach you many new words? Yes, thousands, since you can import any texts you want when you get done with their provided material (I have no idea how much their beginner material covers though in terms of words... I would hope 1000-3000 words but that can be researched). Is your goal reading? It's suited to reading, so you will practice and review often with it. Cost? I think it was $12 a month when I last had it, and the price may have increased. Is it worth it? Depends on a learner's needs. I found it was wasting my money, so I chose to use free tools like Pleco and Readibu apps - since those apps are suited for Chinese learners and have better translations, Pleco has better paid graded reader material if I was going to spend money, and both Pleco and Readibu let me import texts so I can learn thousands of new words just like LingQ but free. Now that I'm not a beginner, I often use Microsoft Edge to read chinese... since I can still click-translate words easily (all my web browsers have that tool free), and Edge's TTS voice is helpful for pronunciation and sounds quite good. I read webnovels online so Edge works well. But it's translations aren't as good as Pleco or Readibu, so if I still needed translations more I would use them. So... is LingQ a good study method? Its certainly a study method marketed to buy. Well... the method is suited to improving reading skill, at least. It costs money, which is a negative, but it does offer a lot. However: everything it does regarding reading can be done free with other apps or sites or web browsers on their own. So if paying money motivates you to read... sure. LingQ does have a few word tracking features a learner may find worth the money, keeping in mind the actual read-to-learn method can be done free without lingq. (Also... while LingQ is a valid option for improving reading, if the learners goal is speaking then it would be important to think of what study activities the learner will do OUTSIDE of LingQ to improve speaking... because I've seen how LingQ is marketed as "how to learn a language" but it's only focused on some skills. It has vocabulary and grammar in some sense, since you'll read a lot and encounter new words and structures. But it doesnt have speaking or writing practice at least last time I was on it. Those activities would need to be worked on, on your own).

You can do that kind of cost/benefit contemplating with any study method material you see being sold. Amother example: there's a beginner Mandarin course called Mandarin Blueprint. It teaches like 800 words. Thats all. It may be worthwhile for a beginner... who still needs to learn 800 common words. But if you already know a few hundred words, the benefit of the course is less, you'll need to find a new material to teach you more new stuff soon. And the price was like a few hundred for the course... which for me personally was too much to spend, when I had already learned 800 hanzi from a book that cost me 12 dollars and 2000 words from a free user made memrise deck. The course claimed to get a person speaking, competent, but anyone not a beginner would say speaking basically with 800 words is nowhere near the level of working in Chinese or just doing a lot of daily life stuff, or reading/listening to media. (Although for the motivated beginner if you're learning 800 words on your own like I was, its definitely close to the point of jumping to learn more words and start reading kids and teenager books, and watching easier shows if you're willing to look new words up). So to me... Mandarin Blueprint felt like overselling some basic beginner materials. (Again when I know several other things that teach beginner stuff either more in depth so HSK test prep classes, and college courses, or that teach beginner stuff to the same depth as Mandarin Blueprint but free).

Some study materials aren't going to act like they teach everything. I've seen chinese courses just for learning to speak tones better and general pronunciation - probably worthwhile if your goal is to improve speaking and a teacher could help improve the issues your having. But a learner needs to be aware for that course that they'll need to study vocabulary on their own, its JUST a pronunciation improvement course.

Beyond the Textbook: Real-World Marketing Challenges Confronted by Symbiosis Students

Do you remember the days when marketing centered around catchy jingles and flashy billboards? Well, those days have long gone, my friends. In this age of digital marketing, marketing has really become a whole new ball game, and the students at Symbiosis Distance Learning Center are coming out all guns blazing.

The Rural Revolution: Marketing Smartphones to Village India

First off, we have a project that caught my eye: A team of students in Symbiosis collaborated with one of the leading smartphone manufacturers to crack the rather challenging nut: How to communicate high-technology products to rural India?

Problem Identification Challenge, This constitutes:

Internet connectivity proving difficult to source for the targeting marketing areas

Lack of computer as well as internet skills among target customers

High propensity for traditional modes of communication

The Symbiosis Approach

Immersion: The team stayed in various villages for two weeks to really learn who their target audience was.

Insight Mining: While smartphone penetration may be low, aspirations are clearly going high. In fact, many of the villagers see smartphones as tickets for their kids to better education and jobs.

This was made possible with the development of the "Mobile Pathshala" (Mobile School) campaign. They transformed old buses into experience centers and brought smartphones and internet literacy workshops directly into villages. Game Plan from Symbiosis Squad:

Market Research: The team talked to people – through surveys and focus groups, in fact. Young Indians cared about the environment but didn't want to trade off on style.

Gamification: They designed a mobile application by which the customers could track their footprint on that specific purchase, earning "green points" for sustainable actions.

Upcycling Workshops: They got workshops where people could learn how to upcycle their old sneakers, creating a buzz and playing on the eco-credentials of the brand.

The Taste of Tradition: Rebranding a Heritage Food Brand

Lastly, we have a project that appeared to really resonate-they're literally knocking at the door. This legendary food brand in town was known for its traditional Indian sweets but seemed to struggle with reaching the youth. The Sticky Situation:

The brand was perceived as "old-fashioned" and "only for grandparents"

There were increased levels of competition from international confectionery brands

There was the need to remain authentic but at the same time captivate the youth

The Symbiosis Strategy:

Nostalgia Mining: The company proceeded to tap into the deepest emotional connections associated with it, thus coming up with sets of long-time customers.

Packaging Redesign: They updated the design of the packaging while incorporating some traditional Indian art.

Fusion Flavors: Collaborating with the company's chefs, they came up with something new that was set to please modern tastes eventually: fusion flavors. Just think about the Gulab Jamun Cheesecake.

User-Generated Content Campaign: Their "Sweet Memories" campaign spanned several social media platforms where the customers were challenged to share their memories with the brand in stories and photographs.

Secret Sauce: What Makes These Projects Pizzazz

So what makes these Symbiosis projects stand out? Here's my take:

Real Stakes, Real Learning: No, these are not hypothetical case studies. They're working on real brands with real budgets and, therefore, real consequences. That is a pressure cooker to forge some marketing skills.

Immersive Research: In every project, the student did not rely on second-hand data. He went out, talked to real people, and felt the pain himself.

Innovation Meets Tradition: This is breathtakingly beautiful with embracing new technologies amidst the cultural nuance. That's a skill that itself is invaluable in a marketplace as large and diverse as India.

Quantifiable Results: Each and every project had a direct, measurable outcome. In today's marketing world, that's what separates pros from amateurs.

Part of the purpose was to fill the digital gap, add a voice to sustainability, or save cultural heritage; every one of the projects was more than a means of selling products-they were all about communication.

Future of Marketing: Symbiosis Style.

Looking at these projects, I can't help but feel a mix of excitement and, let's be honest, a twinge of envy. The students at Symbiosis are not just learning marketing; they are redefining it. Symbiosis Distance Learning Center has certainly earned its reputation as one of the best universities for MBA distance education, equipping students with real-world experience and forward-thinking strategies. They're proving marketing isn't just about selling stuff. It's about solving problems, creating value, and, on some good days, even making the world a little better. Therefore, to all marketing dinosaurs like me, pay attention. The future of our field is indeed in safe hands. And to the students of Symbiosis Center For Distance Education , keep innovating and keep surprising us, and for goodness' sake, if you figure out how to make healthy food as addictive as junk food, I expect a phone call!

idk how much more 'it is what is' i have left in me, folks

[beggars-opera]

Ok so I completely flubbed my first ever phone interview a few months ago even though it was for an identical position to what I currently have and now I just have to not sabotage myself on this one even though it's a completely different position I have less experience in. I CAN DO THIS, SOMEHOW

12.06.2024 — finals season

done with all my assignments for this semester (yaaaaa, can't believe it), i just have to wait for my final grades and english results, so i'm just reading and spending time with my family, i've already done everything i can.

for the next week and a half i'm just going to rest and recharge, so here will be book updates or something like that.

after that, i'm going back to my studies, specifically languages, marketing, and whatever else i want to explore. i've been wanting to look into gardening and herbalism for a long time, and i think summer is the best time to do it :)

i wish everyone a good end to the semester! remember that you are so much more than your grades and try to enjoy your summer <3
