Week 1: Orientation and Initial Setup


Our OJT journey as junior software developers began with an orientation led by our supervisor, Ma'am Mary Jane Burce. During this session, we were briefed on our roles, responsibilities, and expectations throughout the training period.

One of our primary tasks during the OJT will be to continue the development of the Research Document Management System (RDMS). To get us started, our senior developer walked us through the existing system, explaining its structure, functionalities, and the areas that need improvement. This walkthrough provided us with a clear understanding of the project and our contributions moving forward.



After the walkthrough, we moved on to running the RDMS on our local devices. This involved installing all the necessary dependencies and setting up the environment. Initially, we encountered some bugs and errors during the setup process, but after troubleshooting and collaborating as a team, we managed to get the system running successfully.

In addition to setting up the system, we also worked on fixing the Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) of the RDMS to align it with the system’s current structure. This was a valuable exercise in understanding the data flow and the relationships between different components.

Overall, Week 1 was both challenging and insightful. We are excited to continue developing our skills and contributing to the RDMS project in the coming weeks.

Week 3: Bug Fixes and Module Development

Image
This week, Sir John assigned me a task to fix a bug in the Student Research module of the RDMS. After carefully examining the issue, I successfully implemented the fix. Since I had become a bit more familiar with the system’s structure, Sir John then assigned me the more substantial task of developing the Research Linkage module. I dedicated the rest of the week to working on the module and making steady progress, although I have not yet completed it. Week 3 was both challenging and rewarding as I took on more responsibility in the project. Continuing the Research Linkage module development not only strengthened my skills but also gave me more confidence in working with the RDMS.

Week 14: Workshop and BUBUT Event

Image
In our final week, we attended a workshop titled "IP AWARE BU" organized by the Bicol University Intellectual Property Management Division. The workshop covered essential topics related to intellectual property rights, including patent registration, copyright protection, and strategies to safeguard software innovations. Learning about the legal aspects of intellectual property was insightful, as it highlighted the importance of protecting our projects and ideas, especially in the field of software development. On the same week, the BUBUT event took place, where we participated as facilitators. It was an exciting and rewarding experience to see students present their research projects and capstone works, showcasing their creativity and dedication. Being part of the event gave us the opportunity to support the participants while also gaining insights into how research and development are valued within the university. Overall, it was a fulfilling experience that marked the end o...
