Submit report file to the Guest Speaker Assignment area

  Summarize what you learned from the presenter and create a personal report in short report format (Introduction, Findings, Discussion, Summary, References) in APA Style...don't forget the title page. Make sure to include in the summary another paragraph listing each group member's First and Last Name, Rate each student's contributions on a scale of 1 (did very little) to 10 (did more than their share) what each group member contributed to this assignment then list their contributions. Please share any other comments that might help me assign the appropriate points for each group member. Especially list all that you did, include people you contacted but could not come, etc. Submit report file to the Guest Speaker Assignment area. Note: You get points based on what you did or tried to do. You don't get credit for doing nothing. Remember, in your personal report, document what you did and what others did. Josh Lynn is an electrical engineer at Code Corp. One of the things that he used to do was work as a tech support as a first responder. he used onapp which uses one server so that they can all connect with each other. Onapp works as a cloud manager for all of the servers that are ran by the IT group. You can create the cloud with different aspects such as size, disk space, and so on, for the machine that people would use. Another way to use this is to test different software so that it doesn't use their own software. Other companies would buy some of that software, almost like real estate. This is usually done by hosting companies. When somebody would call in a complaint they would get into the complaints control panel through SSH so that they can fix the problem. LVN is a Linux is basically a camera so that they can have backup server in case something happens. One of the good things about LVN is that it has a lot of recovery options. Some of his work consists of BASH script, which is a line of code that can do multiple commands. They also use programs that allow all of the different people so that they can see the changes to the program as they are made. He has used many of the BASH scripts to automate many of their tasks. During the time that he has been working he has made use of many of his IT skills by creating programs to help make the company more efficient. This has helped him win favor with his employers as well as with his colleagues. He works on circuit structure at code corp in draper, UT. • Electrical engineer at Code Corp ◦ Used to work a lot in IT, wanted to show how his experience in IT has helped in his current field • Graduated USU in 2017, but got Associates at UVU ◦ Not a lot of engineering courses at UVU at the time, which is why he switched • Worked for a company called OnApp, did virtualization ◦ Hosting company would license software through OnApp ◦ He was the 1st responder for tech support (level 1) ◦ Log in to control panel> control panel will tell them what to do ◦ Hosting company would this for a customer facing site ◦ Logged into a cloud, he can use the cloud to build a virtual machine to test software without running it on an actual server. ▪ Hosting companies might have a few big computers and all of their clients who need a production server would pay the hosting company for their server. ▪ Host server has more resources available ▪ Hosting companies are the major clients, small business wants a website, can go to hosting company>outsourcing their server • SSH> secure shell, securely accessing a server.

Open up Canvas 2. Create a posting under the Guest Speaker Discussion Tab 3. Take notes, write down your reactions to what is being said 4. Once presentation is over, feel free to ask any questions (Is your company hiring, beginning salaries, does your company facilitate job shadowing, is there part time employment at your company, what skills are required to start at the bottom in your company, etc.) 5. Post your comments Note: Guest speakers often come with part-time and full-time job opportunities. If you are interested in working for the company that the guest speaker is from, I strongly suggest that you take the time to get his/her contact information and ask at least one question. Guest Speakers provide many opportunities for employment now or in the future. Networking is very important. Guest Speaker Speakers must be currently working in an IS, IT, closely related field. Invite, schedule, and make any other arrangements for a guest speaker to come and speak for 30 minutes during class time. Example: Make parking arrangements, check to see what they need for their presentation, be prepared to introduce your guest speaker to the class, assign a group member as the moderator (job is to make sure they know when their time is up). When your guest speaker comes, all group members should be present to get credit for the assignment. If you can not be there, I need to know why and have written documentation to support your good reason. Medical, death in the family, or other extenuating circumstances or examples for not being there! Presentation topics to discuss by speaker (make sure you let the guest speaker know): A. Share current employment responsibilities, educational background, certifications, and any other job experiences. B. Tell a few war stories (tough situations) C. Lessons learned in career path to date D. Any recommendations you would offer to the students that would help them to be successful in their careers. E. Time for Questions at the end of the presentation
