Week 1 CST 334

This week, I learned about the role of operating systems to control processes, memory, and hardware resources. I learned how the OS provides a link between applications and hardware and maximizes the use of resources. Understanding processes and how processes run in an OS made me understand multitasking and system performance better.

I also set up Docker to create a Linux environment for coding labs. This introduced me to containerization, where there is a consistent development environment. It was simple to install, and running my first Docker container helped consolidate my understanding of virtualization. This hands-on experience will come in handy during future labs.

Part 1: Review and Reflect Learning Strategy I am good at time management , as I am good at creating structured schedules that allocate time for studying, breaks, and other responsibilities, helping me stay organized and reduce procrastination. I also thrive in focused study environments , where I minimize distractions by choosing quiet, comfortable spaces to maximize productivity. Additionally, I effectively use visual tools and outlining , such as charts, diagrams, and key point highlights, to simplify complex concepts and improve understanding. I need to work on critical thinking because I often take in information without questioning it deeply.

Lastly, I should build a review and retention system because I don’t revisit the material regularly, which would help me remember and prepare better. Part 2: Preview Time Management S...
