Here we go!

 Hi, I’m Daniela but you can call me Dani. I’m a 33-year old English & Fine Arts teacher living in Finland and who has dived head first into the exciting world of IT and coding. This is the beginning of my IT journey. How exciting is that! The journey begins at JAMK, the University of Applied Sciences in Jyväskylä where I’ll be taking a nine-month long course about software development.

What do I know about software development? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. I’m a rookie. I’m a noob. But one has to start from somewhere so… here we go! :D

It came as a bit of a surprise to most of the students that after the orientation week we’ll basically just study alone, there are no lessons. There are videos that the teachers filmed some years ago but that’s it. We’ll never meet the teachers in person. Thank goodness we have a lovely teacher tutor Maarit in the classroom to help us when we get stuck. That is one of the reasons why I decided to study on site at the Dynamo campus. Furthermore, it is easier to concentrate at school than at home. So my daily routine is to go to school at 9 and leave at around 3 or 4. Even though independent studying was a great disappointment, there is one surprising benefit: I can set my own pace. _________________________ Git & Gitlab I dived into the de...
