  • In this video I'll be going over how to study for your computer science classes. This video will mainly be covering some big picture things for computer science, mainly the coding and lab parts of it, not so much the math, but overall effective study tips you can use for your compsci / coding classes!

    I cannot agree more about making a friend in your program. There's been so many times just having someone else who knows what I'm talking about helped me through a problem, just talking through my code has helped me see my issues or come up with new solutions to try. And sometimes they know something I don't! It's saved me so much time and energy on problems that I used to spend all night on.

    I plan on majoring in Computer Science this upcoming Fall but i'm not good at math. My biggest problem when it comes to math is learning the material and forgetting everything when a new course gets introduced.

      Does computer science have anything to do with too much memory retention? I like math but I don't like taking in too much notes like in biology for example

    Hi Joshua, I’ve watched some of your videos and I am finding them helpful so far. 😁But, I was wondering if you could please make a video on any resources you used outside of your classes to enhance your skills in programming? Like Coursera or Free Code Camp, or Udemy? Also I am very curious to know if you applied to any entry level jobs after you finished your associates ? If so sharing the experience in the tech field w an AS in CS would also be helpful to know! Hoping you can answer these in the future 🤞😄

    • @Joshua_Boaz
      @Joshua_Boaz  Před 3 lety

      Hey Jocelyn, I’m glad you’re liking them so far! I can definitely make a video on some outside resources that I use which help me with school / work! After getting my AS I got an internship doing front end dev at an organization by me and have been there for about 6 months, since I’m finishing up my bachelors, I didn’t want to work full time but I’ll be there until I’m graduating as an intern. A lot of my friends who stopped at their AS did get jr. developer jobs at companies (pretty much everyone who didn’t transfer to a 4 year) so I think there is definitely a market for jobs even without a 4 year

    • @Joshua_Boaz
      @Joshua_Boaz  Před 3 lety +1

  • @all_the_good_names_are_gon68

    Summary:
    - Look into online sources (YT or Google) teaching the topic that you're about to learn in class to familiarize yourself with the topic and retain it better. For more niche topics, try to google them and you will most likely find them tackled by GeeksforGeeks, StackOverFlow, W3Schools. Otherwise use CZcams (KhanAcademy helps)!
    - Take advantage of IDE debugger and learn how to use it.
    - Create a study group (or study with at least one person)
    - Take advantage of office hours (talk to your TA or professor)
    - Code along (as you're learning)

    How do you form a study group?
    I'm looking to form one but I haven't worked with one before

    • @Joshua_Boaz
      @Joshua_Boaz  Před 3 lety +3

      How I formed mine was by making a friend in the class and getting their number or discord and seeing if they wanted to study online on Zoom or FaceTime for an hour or two before a lab due date and just work on it together. After that just slowly seeing if more classmates wanted to study and getting like 2-3 people to bounce ideas off of and give/get help from really helped. For me it was just making that 1 friend and going from there

    • @Joshua_Boaz
      @Joshua_Boaz  Před 3 lety +1

      How I made that 1 friend was just either emailing someone seeing if they wanted to do a little study group or someone that I’ve worked with in the class during a group assignment or something, it’s definitely harder since we’re online but I think everyone is feeling that way
