This morning I used my logical thinking skills to come up with ideas of how to improve the user experience for my program. An example of one of these is perception because I changed the colour of the error messages to red. This gives a sense of danger or warning to the user telling them that they did something wrong. A weakness of today is that I am still behind on my assignments because I need to finish both U14 A4T1 and U24 A1T3 before the end of today.

This afternoon, we had a Tutor hour dedicated to discrimination against genders. I found out that it is against the equality act of 2010 to be transphobic and commit to genderism because they both involve invalid beliefs about genders. This afternoon, I also continued to improve my U14 A4T1 and managed to fully update my program to create a good user experience. My SMART target for today is to To think of at least four different ideas of how I could improve my Paint Job program for the Unit 14 assignment which is due today.
