Another good example of my work in Marketing is a short assignment I wrote regarding the feasibility of a new product, Professional Photobooks, as found on Hot Product News.
I’ve been told a number of times that BCIT can stand for “Being Crammed Into Teams,” and they’re not kidding. Most of my team work is done with K-One Networks, a team formed for most classes at BCIT.
Our Team Charter, the first assignment done as a team.
This is an assignment done by my team at BCIT, K-One Networks, on the subject “Why I Chose BCIT.” The middle section, with the “BCIT” acronym montage was made as a movie, then converted into a slide. Enjoy!
Hi there! My name is Brandon Taylor, and I would like to thank you for visiting this collection of my academic accomplishments and personal interests, otherwise known as my E-Portfolio. I am a recent graduate of BCIT‘s School of Business for Marketing Management, and this site was created as part course in computer applications, but now serves as a showcase of the work I accomplished over the two year program. For a bit more about me, click here. I encourage you to comment on anything you see here, and do not hesitate to contact me if you would like to know more.
At BCIT I am currently enrolled in BSYS 1000, a course in computer applications. I find it increasingly useful as I get deeper into the semester – PowerPoint presentations are now easy to create, Word documents are more refined, and Excel, cited by friends in business as one of the most useful tools to learn, is shaping up to an interesting project.
Any of the assignments in this e-portfolio (except for those written at UBC) have benefited from BSYS 1000, but here are the best examples.
My first foray into WordPress, a tutorial about Microsoft Powerpoint 2007
A (very) lighthearted assignment about myself, done as a part of the course on Microsoft Word 2007.
My first experience at BCIT, the introduction to my academic life for the next two years, was the BCIT Orientation. I found it to be an interesting experience – I knew one person in the entire school, and had expectations based only on what former graduates from some time ago (my father and his classmates) but felt confident thanks to my previous four years of post-secondary education.
During speeches from the Dean of the School of Business, the Associate Dean, former students and various professors, I was provided with encouragement, horror stories, and evidence that my time at UBC would not be of any help in the coming days (three months later, I strongly beg to differ). Looking back to that day, I am not sure if I have taken much of what I was told to heart, though I constantly remember one phrase spoken by several people – “We’re going to work you hard.” With that phrase in mind, I can assert one fact about BCIT – they really do keep to their word.
