Inside Fahmeena Odetta's Head

Throwback

Remembering the Structured Systems Analysis and Design course at UMBC. The course required team work on an actual project. I had trouble finding a project to work on. I considered several options. I thought of a website for a family member’s pastry business. I even contacted several companies to inquire about projects I might work on. Those options did not work out. I ended up dropping the course the first time I was supposed to take it.

The second time around, I joined a team formed by two brothers. The brothers had a project to work on because they were employed at a company that allowed them to use the project/problem for school. It was an interesting topic too – it dealt with security incidents, an example is the incident reported and recorded when an employee loses a laptop. The team was called Team Maryland.

FEATURED

I am working to be published.

I completed 11 signature assignments – significant papers with original ideas. In one paper, I foresaw specific problems at a major company. In another, I designed a study (with statistical analyses) to explain why videos do not significantly enhance or improve online reviews. I worked alone. My signature assignments available at: https://fahmeenaodettasignaturepapers.tumblr.com.

About THIS BLOG

I created this blog to capture my thoughts and ideas and to practice writing. Why practice writing? I was on a break from my PhD and not writing much. I needed to continue writing regularly – I wrote and submitted weekly assignments/papers.
I also track my mental health using this blog.

I am currently working on publishing my papers in academic journals. Click the ‘paperforpublishing’ tag in the tags section below for my last status update. My main area of specialization is usability/user experience. Click on the ‘usability’ tag to view my posts, including ideas, on usability.
