Reflection on the first five report

Five chapters down!(I think it's better to say five chapters finished).Uhmm....how show I start?

Since chapter one's been reported a long time ago(last,last month, I think), the subject that had retained to me is the question Ma'am Tammy opened---"What's the difference between SAD and SE?" It's the big issue that day.

Software engineering and System Analysis and Design really has its similarities. I once had a confusion to this.But as time goes by, the confusion I have is been answered. Thanks to sir Cagape for the life cycle he discussed in our software engineering. According tot he system's life cycle, SAD's falls on the first phases of developing a system. In other words, its more on eliciting requirements and gathering data. To sum it up,its analysis,analysis and analysis.

Does this mean Software Engineering falls on the following phases of System Development?
Yes, it does Software Engineering is more on the implementation of the gathered data & requirement. To sum it up, that's where the design-making and bloody coding takes place.
So, SAD and SE are related with each other.

Then the following four chapters been discussed. I can't point out topics in each chapters discussed, so I just make my reflection on this in general.

What I've learned in these four chapters?

There are lots of things the reporters had said and I admit that there are times that I felt sleepy and tired to listen.

SDLC-System Development Life -Cycle. This topic is been absorbed on my mind since almost or all the reports tackled covers it. Then there's the 2 approaches of gathering data,technique in eliciting requirements, people involved in the system's development and many others.

I have seen a lot of slides w/ varying designs but only few of the topics been retained on my mind.

Just like one of my classmates said on the sharing of learning this friday morning,I also think that it's better to read and understand those things by yourself and just ask for help if you don't understand it at all.

That thursday is also a meaningful day to me because of what Sir Gamboa want us to do w/ ourselves. I really reflected on what sir had said.

What is my Objective?

This question made me to pause for a moment and reflect. I think I must have a System Analysis and Design on my own.(sir also mentioned this.....)

I think this is the reason why my system(my own self) is good enough;it is not validated. Must I schedule a workthrough?
