Yesterday, we had our PIT software presentation scheduled during our Software Design and Engineering class. Leading up to the presentation, I felt a bit nervous because I hadn’t completed as many layout designs as I’d hoped. I realized I’d also forgotten to upload some files to GitHub. The night before, I was cramming to finish the system's layout and ended up staying up all night. I also felt some personal stress that affected my focus, so I decided to play some music to help me keep going and complete my work.
During our presentation, our leader gave a brief introduction to our system, called 'EduConnect.' This platform connects students with tutors, who can be other students or instructors. We showcased the main navigation functions, including signing in, creating accounts, the dashboard, subject room, searching for instructors, messaging, profiles, payments, and settings. We demonstrated the backend using Firebase, which handles account management like adding and deleting accounts directly through the database. We also shared some of the errors we encountered and how we planned to fix them. Our instructor provided valuable guidance and gave us feedback, which led to a promising score. He then advised us on areas to improve and asked us to present again the next day with the adjustments made.
Today, we returned to present our updated system to improve our score. Our leader, Tejano, made significant improvements to the backend, such as adding error handling for short passwords, handling invalid credentials, and optimizing the runtime. His leadership included regular updates and reminders, keeping our roles well-coordinated and helping me identify parts of the layout that needed fixing or adding. With his support, we were able to finish the presentation successfully. I’m grateful for his patience and dedication to the project, which motivated all of us to stay on track. We wrapped up the presentation and were relieved to have done our best.
