Become an Android Developer from Scratch & Android Development for Beginners

Date: By
Udemy
I found a really useful website - Udemy. It provides a lot of different courses, and some of them are even free!
1st Course
So then I started on a course - Become an Android Developer from Scratch, which is essentially about developing android programs with Java. I think it is really helpful for me because I've had some basic knowledge about Java, and I have no trouble understanding the course so far.

Udacity
However, I started with a course from this other website - Udacity. It is another free online course website which the courses are mostly about computer science and technology.
2nd Course
I learned most of my android developing skills from a course - Android Development for Beginners which is provided by Google. I really enjoyed the course and had tried coding by myself using their XML Visualizer.

Review
The difference between Become an Android Developer from Scratch and Android Development for Beginners is that - I actually have to follow the video and practice building up my android program from the second course, instead of learning the fundamentals of coding android programs first. Personally, I like the second course because I am kind of a "visual person", so I am probably going to continue the second course with intent instead of the first one. Even though it takes a long time to master a programming language, it is really fun designing and learning how to build my own app.

I love coding because it is one of the best way to show my creativity visually. I feel fulfilling whenever I make the program function, and this has taken me to a level that I can't stop learning more about it!

By Date:
Today, I saw an ad on Youtube that provides a social marketing course, and it teaches people the key to achieve in the social market. I am just being curious and I went up and signed up for a free training webinar. Unfortunately, I am not affordable for the price of the course. It is $699. But the good news is that I learned a principle of social marketing. It's called the V.R.I.N. principle. I searched it on the web and I found it pretty interesting, it is a way of methods on debugging a company's business strategy and create a sustainable competitive resource for the business.

You can now easily check a company with the method and fix the mistakes. ...

Ancient Architectural Style & Sketchup Practice

By Date:
Today in history class, I learned some different types of architectural style in different ancient time periods -- Ancient Rome, Ancient Greece, and Ancient Egypt. We were assigned to create an ancient style architecture using the Sketchup  program. So, I started up by doing some research with the style of those types of ancient buildings, and this is what I got: Ancient Rome Style: made of stone, arches, pillars, and domes. Ancient Greece Style:   made of columns, door and window openings. Ancient Egypt Style: made of sun-baked mud brick or stone, post and lintel structure. Then I searched "sketchup tutorial", and found that the company has already made a list of video tutorials . They are really helpful, and it helps me a lot to get familiar with the drawing tools. After watching some video tutorials, I first started with a 2D-design draft on a piece of paper using the Ancient Rome style. It looks like this: Then I worked on the design using...
