Week 29- Fifth Training Week

-
This week has been my first Principles of Coding training week at Escalla. The week overall was quite challenging as I found coding confusing and hard to grasp but I got there by the end of the week. For this training week, we had Amanda and she's great and really helped me through the week! 

 Throughout the week we looked at:

  • Algorithms.
  • Flow Control.
  • The Software Development Cycle.
  • HTML, CSS, JavaScript and PHP.
  • Compatibility issues with code on different platforms.
  • Hardware and software components.
  • Protocols.
  • Web technologies Search Engines.

 We also used Codecademy to practise some code which was good to try and relate to the principles that we were learning about.

 At the end of the week, we had our Principles of Coding exam and I was nervous to do this because I wasn't feeling too confident but I PASSED!😄 

 So, the week ended really well and I'm looking forward to going back to Escalla to learn more about coding!✌

So this week I had my second training week at Escalla continuing with online and offline marketing. I had a really good week overall with Emma and everyone I'm doing my course with, we all seem to get on really well!  Throughout the week we looked at the following topics: CRM (customer relationship marketing)  Audience Engagement Marketing strategies and campaigns Laws and Regulations in the workplace and as a marketer  Risk Management Cycle Workplace policies Return on Investment We continued with our online and offline   marketing report and ensured all the work we did was mapped to references for the course.  Once we had finished all the content we needed, we started revising for our exam that was on Friday, we all worked together on Kahoot quizzes and q-cards to help us revise. I am a very visual learner so making q-cards and using coloured pens really helps when I am revising.  So, before the exam on Friday, I was really nervous ...

This week at Knetic I have been doing a lot of preparation for our Black Friday Event, I have been scheduling all Facebook, Twitter and Instagram posts for Black Friday. I have really enjoyed doing this because it has been a little different to my normal social media posts, we have chosen to use a sarcastic tone in all our posts to try and engage our audiences. I have also had to use a lot of call to actions and time-pressured language to make our audience feel like they need to buy from us. We have followed a theme throughout all the images for social media and the website and I have also included some gifs and memes to humour our audience so they are engaged.  At the start of the week, I completed all my 4 blogs and social posts for the week. I also created some banners for the homepage of our website and changed all the sliders and images for the week.  Midweek we had a VW T6 in for us to shoot, I helped out with the shoot by helping to put our products together and f...
