Connect and innovate with an elite information systems program
For this class project, I completed 3 courses on LinkedIn learning. They all had separate ideas, but mainly focused on what we learned in class. They focused on agile principles, project management software, and change leadership. They really helped reaffirm the information I learned throughout this semester, as well as give me insight on what being a project manager is. The courses showed me what type of foundation professionals in the field attain through learning, and experience.
For this class project I was instructed to complete three LinkedIn Learning paths on agile project management and design thinking. I learned throughout these courses how to affectively lead a team. With the help of these courses I now feel like I am equipped with the knowledge to lead my team and affectively use agile and scrum techniques. I also learned how to use the Microsoft Project software which will also help me affectively organize a project affectively. I enjoyed learning how to lead a team and how the SCRUM method works, this will help me with my professional career as a potential project manager.
You can find my LinkedIN profile here with the completed courses:
For this project, I utilized LinkedIn Learning and completed three courses. These certifications are “Becoming an Agile Project Manager”, “Microsoft Project Essential Training”, and “Leading Change”. By completing these three courses, I have learned the tools and foundations that is needed to be an Agile Project Manager. One of the tools is Microsoft Project. In this course, it taught be how to use Microsoft Project to manage projects, edit timelines, and reporting the project information. In addition, these courses taught me the different characteristics of Agile such as building the right Agile team, user stories and how to implement Microsoft Project to work in an Agile environment. Lastly, the “Leading Change” course discussed different aspects of what it takes to initiate and lead change within an organization. For example, one of the main ideas taught was Design thinking. Design thinking is a user focused approach of solving problems and requires a lot of collaboration to make it an effective strategy. Overall, these courses provide me with the knowledge and skills that will further prepare for a career in project management!
Attached are my certificates.

For this project we were given the task of watching training videos to help improve our comprehension and skills of agile project management. The various videos included explanations on roles and processes when working in an agile environment. the videos also provided training with various programs to help make the agile process more efficient. This project was very helpful with my development and understanding of agile. They helped reiterate many concepts and lessons learned throughout my time in the 3535 course. The walkthroughs of the various programs was also very helpful as I find it very valuable to be familiar with different programs in todays work environment. Below are my certificates that I received for completing these training sessions.

The goal of this project is to demonstrate students’ knowledge of functions, loops, conditional statements, and jQuery, which we learned in MIS2402.
This project needs to use the knowledge learned in class to create a web page by using a real data set about Covid-19 provided by the professor. I need to analyze this set of Covid-19 data first. Then, I used the Visual Studio Code to write programs and answer questions about Covid-19. (1. What country has had the most Covid-19 cases? How many? 2. What country has had the most Covid-19 deaths? How many? 3. What country has had the most Covid-19 tests per million people? How many? 4. What country has the newest Covid-19 cases as of today? 5. What country has had the most recoveries?)

By completing this project, I strengthened my understanding and application of the knowledge I learned this semester. I can be more familiar with writing code to create web pages. When I was analyzing and organizing the data, I found that the USA had the most cases, deaths, and new cases. As an international student, I am worried about the lives of the American people. This virus is terrible, but from the data, the United States has not found a suitable solution and preventive measures. I think this should arouse people’s attention and enable people to strengthen self-protection in order to effectively reduce the cases and deaths caused by Covid-19.

Our analysis of the enrollment sizes allowed for us to see how many participants were in each clinical trial. Success was impacted by the size of the study (in terms of how many people were used). We saw that smaller groups from the size of 1-100 lead to the most predominant success (nearly 60% of all successful clinical trials). Therefore, smaller groups opposed to larger groups should be used, as it increases the odds of success by over 50%
Based on our findings We believe that in making the following changes to their sampling pools. Alexion will yield increased success from their trials:
Sampling an age group between the years 18 – 65 (adult, Older Adult)
Utilizing both male and females in their samples opposed to singularly male or female.
Limiting the sample sizes to below 100 participants in total
An in-person fright-fest on October 31, 2022 from 12:00 – 1:00. Open to all MIS students, faculty, and staff.
