 About Me

Hi there! I’m Charla Miller, a third-year (Junior) college student at the University of Arizona Global Campus, where I’m pursuing my Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology.

I didn’t graduate college in my 20s, life happened. So, here I am at 44 back in college. I love computers, and that is what brought me back to school. This blog started as part of a class assignment — but it is quickly becoming something more. I realized it could be a space where I not only complete coursework but also share my journey through the world of technology. From learning new programming languages to exploring cybersecurity, data analysis, cloud computing, online college and everything in between, I’m excited to document it all here.

Why This Blog?

As an online student, I’ve learned how important it is to stay connected and engaged. This blog is my way of doing just that — connecting with others who are passionate about tech, learning in public, and building a digital footprint that reflects my growth.

Whether you're a fellow student, a tech enthusiast, or just curious about what it’s like to study IT online, I hope you’ll find something here that inspires or informs you.

 What to Expect

  • Tech Tips & Tutorials from a student’s perspective
  • Reflections on Learning and navigating online education
  • Personal Project A peek into what I’m building, breaking, and learning and creating, and hands-on experiences.
  • Resources & Tools I’ve found helpful along the way.
  • Tech Reviews: Honest takes on tools, platforms, and products.
  •  Industry Insights: Thoughts on trends, innovations, and where tech is headed

 

Let’s Connect

Got a question, idea or would like to share your own experiences, or just say hi. Feel free to reach out via (Charlamiller2@student.UAGC.edu) or the available contact form. Let’s learn and grow together in this ever-evolving tech world.

Thanks for stopping by — and welcome to my journey!

Programming Languages: Scratch Coding

Programming Languages  Programming Languages Paper: Exploring Scratch and Computational Thinking Charla Miller University of Arizona Global Campus TEC101: Fundamentals of Information Technology & Literacy Programming Languages Paper: Exploring Scratch and Computational Thinking Introduction In this assignment, I had the opportunity to research and explore the logic of computational thinking through a drag-and-drop block programming language called Scratch. This application gets you engaged through the platform and allows users to make interactive stories, games and animations, by piecing together “code blocks”, such as Motion or control blocks visually, this can really help beginners of any age. I created a short program, of 30 code blocks in Scratch, and it resulted in a colorful animation that featured a cat in motion around Spaceship and Space City. This paper will discuss my experience learning the programming language, as well as a comparison to the languages introduced in...
