Week One Extra Credit - Dy1001

Hi, I am Didi, majoring MS Management & System with the concentration of the Database Technology. I got my bachelor degree in Accounting at the Ohio State University in May 2016. After that, I was working in an international company in Columbus, Ohio. My job had two parts--besides doing accounting related analysis, I also assisted the software improvement programmer to collate and correct historical financial data. I am aware of the importance of data analysis and the role it plays in the decision making process. So I hanker for acquiring advanced analytical techniques in this program. --Dy1001 (talk) 16:23, 31 March 2018 (UTC)

Wikipedia Extra Credit Bonus Point -JayGJH

Hi professor FULBERT, After the entire experience of Wikipedia course assignment, I found that sharing knowledge and experience with people is quite fun. In the beginning of the assignment, I feel nervous and shy to share or change anything on the wiki, however, sharing is always good thing. If something that I shared is disagreed by other people, they can always change and update. Even, if people have different idea, we can debating. And I can always fill the blank of some field for a topic that I familiar with. It is really cool for sharing and this wiki assignment changed my idea about sharing things that I know. Also I learnt quite a lot during this assignment. Once you try to sharing things in the wiki page, I always require to read other people's work first. During this process, I learnt some different aspect of this topic that I might never thought about. And it is really help for me to think different way and understand other's idea. I will continue editing on Wikipedia, because I think it is the other process of learning new staff. And now I am really enjoy sharing information with people. And hopefully, my shared information can help other people while their learning new objects. JayGJH (talk) 00:20, 29 April 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for the feedback and your reflection on these, JayGJH. Keep up the great work! --- FULBERT (talk) 16:46, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
