Personal Narrative: Improving My Technological Literacy



For penetration testing a jailbroken iPhone 5s running iOS 9.3.2 was used. Device was jailbroken using Pangu jailbreaking tool released by team Pangu. The type of jailbreak Pangu tool used was semi-tethered jailbreaking, which the device needed to be re-jailbroken once it restarted in order to use Cydia and other jailbreaking tweaks and applications. After jailbreaking the device, linux command line tools listed below were installed on the device from Cydia. Tools used to inspect the applications installed on the device are as follows:

In the previous years, I have made the decision to work concurrently with my education. I have been working as a waitress in a local restaurant for years. My parents were opposed to my working since they wanted me to focus on my grades, but I wanted to lessen the financial burden for them. Both of my parents never received an education and they wanted me to solely focus on school to secure myself a better future despite our poverty.

I have been a prototype technician for almost nine years at my company. I work at a prototype facility that builds seatbelt and airbag parts for automotive companies. I had the opportunity to learn and be a part of the prototype build request while a select group of supervisors was developing this new system. The new build request asks the engineer for more specific instructions than the old system. However, each engineer was never really trained so they are filling out the work orders differently. The mangers implemented a new build request system about two years ago. In the beginning, I was asked to be on a project that helped design this new build system. The team was made up of inventory clerks, an engineer from seatbelts and airbags, a

If I could say who I am as a learner, I would say that I am a risk-taker, and am very knowledgeable. I like this because I am not afraid to try new things, but I still know what I am doing. If you don’t be a risk taker and try new things, you can never learn anything. These are two very good traits to have, but I still have goals. I want to be more reflective and look back on my mistakes so I can learn better. My goals for behavior are to talk less and get more work done. The best way for me to work is to get a lot done and then take a lot of little breaks, sometimes I get carried away and start to talk and it gets crazy. I learned about this trait when I was a lot younger when I would clean my room. I would get distracted and start playing around, and then I would stop and clean really fast so I could take a little break again. I think this is a result of what type of learner I am. My color quiz results said I am yellow. That means I am very enthusiastic and try to change things where I can. I like to change things to make them more fun. So when I work, I take

Throughout the third quarter during the 2016-2017 school year, I have learned much in my tech 2 class. I have completed three projects where I learned new things and helped tech 1s. I learned how to design and print 3d models, fly airplanes, be patient when helping people, and not waste time. I plan to use the skills I have learned either in college or highschool. I also plan to use these skills in a field related to engineering or architecture.

Carlos, I am glad you have decided to change to the IT field. You will love it and you make your living better. I have been in the IT field for 12 years now. starting with broadband Hughesnet internet installer and moving to desktop and Microsoft specialist. Now I am a network engineer hoping to move into network security soon. get your degree in tandem with your certifications. it is really important. one ATM machine issues me 120 dollars while I input 140 from a gas station. This is so embarrassing to try to get my $20 dollars back calling my bank. There are a lot of opportunities in the bank area fixing ATM and securing bank

classes to support my own learning and looking for the right resources. Supportive is that my husband can teach me the language without attending a language class and that I can learn and improve by talking to him. I am planning to learn once a week for two hours.

Who I am as a learner, I am as a learner and a global citizen as a learner I'm a communicator. I like to talk to people when I work and stuff as a global citizen, I am a person who likes to help people out when it comes to doubting yourself or to believing I want to help people through tough times and having fun because some people don't know how to have a pleasant time and are kinda boring and they just sit inside all day and play video games and I do also play video games but some kids sit and side all day so I try to hang out with them and stuff.

"Technology alone is not enough...It's technology married with liberal arts, married with the humanities, that yields us the results that make our hearts sing."

On June, 02, the first day of recording the usage of technology, I used about seven hours and fifteen minutes. I set up my alarm on my phone to wake up at 6:30 in the morning. I always wake up at 6:30 a.m. but, I could not get up from my bed. I use to check my Facebook and email until 7:00 a.m. on my bed. As soon as I get up from my bed, I play music on my phone until I arrive to school at 7:45 in the morning. I play music on my phone as soon as I get on my car until I get home; it is about 13 minutes. I have to call to my bank when I get home because I could not swipe my card. It took me at least 30 minutes. After the call, I get on my Facebook and chat with my friends about one hour and thirty minutes. I use to cook dinner at 3:00 p.m. and always take me two hours to finish up every dishes. I always used to play music on my laptop while I am cooking. At 8 o’clock, I used my laptop to study about an hour. Before I sleep, around 9:15 p.m. I watched a movie on Netflix. It took about one hours and fifteen

Over the course of this semester I decided that for my SMART Goal I wanted to learn a new language, German, and be able to hold a conversation in this language so that I can travel to Germany and visit my boyfriend this summer. Thus far, progress has been very minimal and quite slow. I had originally planned to learn a list of roughly twenty vocabulary words per week, to give myself vocabulary tests based of these words, and to give myself a test every couple of weeks. Frankly, none of that has happened. However, I am still learning new words, but I have shifted a good amount of my focus on to trying to pronounce words which is what I should have started with. Additionally, I got a new resource. A friend of mine is taking German and the University

When I saw the big black box on my desk looming over me, I made a decision that would dictate my summer. A few years back I decided I was going to build a computer. Needless to say the first attempt was… less than optimal. After looking at it, it wasn’t going to cut it for Computer Science. There was CPU throttling, awful cable management, and the thing was almost two feet tall by two feet long. Not going in my college dorm room.

Even though I possess several of the skills-traits that employee’s value, I will elaborate on my interpersonal skills that I believe to be one of my strongest attributes. Nevertheless, I will also discuss how I plan to go about improving my technical-computer skills. What I consider one of my strongest attributes is my interpersonal skills; this ability has helped me achieve success in both academic and the professional fields. In academic, I will include letters of recommendation from two professors at Lamar State College Port Arthur, Dr. Laura Johnson Stafford and Prof. Albert Clyde Faggard Jr. Furthermore, in Dr. Stafford's online public speaking class my persuasive speech video has been archived by the college and is now used as an example,

As an Information Systems Technician (IT) in the military I am responsible for making sure that my workplace offices are equipped with access to internet, intranet, system networks and other authorized files through computer and server access without becoming intermittent or delayed. Keeping the network online is mission essential as well as a morale booster.

I crouched with my back against the old dresser, breathing heavily. I looked over my shoulder at Naphtali, then looked at my hands, covered in reddish-orange dust, and brushed them off on my tattered jeans. I slumped to the ground in a heap, reminiscing about how life used to be, before Russia took over Mongolia and China in a grand attempt to resurrect the Soviet Union. I was an exchange student from Saint Paul, Minnesota, at the time, studying foreign cultures as part of my college course on anthropology. My roommate Amanda Baldridge and I flew to Ulaan-bataar, planning to stay for three weeks and have a presentation ready to amaze our professor.
