It’s my last week of my DREU experience here at the University of Minnesota! I’ve learned a lot about HCI, academic research, and life in Minneapolis. In addition, I’ve made new friends who have made my time here very memorable. I have a lot in store for this week, community orchestra concert, Symposium on Thursday, and packing!
In research lab, I’ve mostly been working on editing the follow up surveys. In addition, we ran one more pilot study. Which has helped us continue to gauge how effective our operation of the chatbot is. Playing in the Minnesota summer orchestra concert was a blast! We performed a rockin’ program of Tchaikovsky, Wagner and Mozart. Even though I accidently my music off the stand while turning the page during the finale, I’d say it was a success. I’m so thankful I had the opportunity to perform with my violin while at UofM! The next day, my team and I presented at the Summer Undergraduate Research Expo. The expo was located at the Alumni center which is an incredibly beautiful building! We setup our poster and table to let people interact with MLBot. I was a little nervous to present to other people, but it ended up being really fun, and our designated hour of presentation went by really fast! Presenting the poster made me realize how much my team and I accomplished over the 10 week experience. It made me proud of all of our hard work. I’ll be really sad to leave my DREU experience here at UMN. I had so much fun exploring new topics in computer science through research. It feels surreal that I was able to have this incredible opportunity. I look forward to see how I can apply all that I’ve learned in my future endeavors. Thanks for following me on my journey!
