My goals for this project was to learn about APIs and how they can been used alongside of JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. My results for the project were that I was able enhance my coding skills and use another source to post and display data. I learned how to use JQuery, Bootstrap, and incorporate Single Page Architecture into my created website. My compressed zip file for the website is below.

HTML API Project
- Include the goals, results, project URL (if applicable), and what you learned in a brief paragraph.
The goal of the project was to display the university that each 76ers starter attended using the GET method. I also tried to incorporate a text to speech box using the post method but was unable to understand the audio file part. I was able to improve my problem solving skills and learned the basics of API interactions

Cloud Paper
- The goals of the MIS 2502 extra credit assignment was to research a piece of technology we were interested in. I chose Cloud because I wanted to learn how this modern piece of tech works, especially because I use it in my everyday life through iCloud, the Canvas website, and so on. I visited many sources to learn more, including Amazon\’s Web Service (AWS) page. MIS 3406 covers using cloud, which only motivated me to continue diving in. From my research, I learned that cloud encompasses a variety of fields, such as cloud-based analytics and cloud computing. I want to dive in technology consulting and I know I will have to utilize analytics to help business\’ track growth and cloud computing when it comes to implementation

MIS 2402 Semester Project
- The goals of the semester long project was to design a website that utilizes a GET and POST API. I ended up creating a randomized color generator where people can get a random cloud based on what they enlisted in their preference. I asked for their name and wanted they desired (inspiration, something random, etc.). After the users put this information, they pressed generate and a link to a color would pop up. They can save this color to use. Through this project, I truly learned what a GET and POST API does. In the beginning, we talked briefly about it, but actually implementing it was a different field. I also learned more about error trapping and how to really connect the dots between my code.
PRO Points project/Cloud-Based Analytics/Cloud Computing
- Include the goals, results, project URL (if applicable), and what you learned in a brief paragraph.
- Once approved, the description is automatically displayed in a post on your e-portfolio.
The goal of this project is to let us do some self research on a topic in MIS in order to learn more about Data and Analytics. With that we are then able to connect it with what we learned in 2502 and better understand how data analytics is used. The result of the project is that I was able to do a write up on cloud-based analytics or cloud computing. From this project, I learned what cloud computing is and how it is becoming a bigger and bigger deal today.
Big Data Extra Credit
Goals: The goal of this assignment was to give us an outlet to display our ability to understand and describe an aspect of data analytics to current and future employers. From the possible topics to discuss, I chose “Big Data’.
Results: As a result of this class project, I learned just how relevant Big Data is in our day-to-day life. Big Data is mostly known as extremely large amounts of data/information that has been “pulled” or “saved”. I also learned that people and companies can use different methods of analysis to sift through the data, and use the data in multiple different ways; for understanding the present, and trying to predict the future.
I learned that we see Big Data in everyday life when we go to a store and they ask us for our phone numbers for our loyalty. This information is used to sift through this company’s customer data and patterns to learn “who does what and why” and they use this information to their advantage. Data that is tracked like this can be used to understand the present, but more importantly, plan and predict for the future. This is how people predict who will win the next presidential election, stages of climate change, and how to approach customers in your store around the holidays versus any regular day, and so much more. Beyond the data being used for information analysis, the next big question is, where is my data going? Big Data is so much more than just information being stored.
MIS 2502 Extra Credit – Internet of Things
Since there are so many areas of data analytics, it would be impossible to cover each of them extensively in one semester. We were to research a topic from a list and talk about how it relates to data analytics and certain concepts we covered in the semester. The topic I chose was ‘Internet of Things’ and what I found was not to my surprise, that it goes hand in hand with data analytics, and also almost all technology. This project, and course truly showed me how big data analytics is in the real world; It is the basis of information systems.
