SYEP Reflection Assignment

5 things learned/ needs to improveThe SYEP internship in Its-Your-Internet.com during July and the first two weeks of

August was exceptionally memorable. The five things I learned included a strong sense of responsibility, ability to work under stress, ability to keep tasks on track, basic CSS and HTML editing, and more importantly real world office working experience. A little bit pre-work education about website designing would be extremely helpful; air conditioning in the workplace is too cold; computer too slow; food too expensive; too many chairs in the office. Other than these the experience was unforgettable and interesting.

Overall ExperienceThe overall experience of SYEP 2012 was memorable and interesting, I certainly learnt

a lot from it. I would recommend Its-Your-Internet.com to my friends, espicialy those who planning to go on to the internet field and industries related to cloud computing.

Interaction with CPC SYEP staffThe CPC SYEP monitor for my worksite was Deanna, who was very helpful. I had asked

a number of questions and receive detailed answer and explanation for each of them.

Debit card/ direct deposit feedbackI am yet to use my debit card so I can’t really talk about my experience with it.

Educational workshop feedbackCareer Exploration was the most interesting one, it provided an overview of different

career options. It presented a number of career paths which many of them were new to me. It also helped me to create a plan for the future, for example what to consider when choosing summer job, and how different jobs can help us in the future.

Higher Education Exploration was very informative. I was uninformed about the college application and administration process before this, after several hours of the workshop I am quite familiar with them. This workshop can be related to the Career Exploration workshop, for example, what colleges to consider regarding your ideal career path.
