In class today, I created my GitHub portfolio. We also discussed factors of a good reflection post as a class:

• Progress (what work I did)
• How it changed my project (Did it work well?)
• Problems
• Emotions
• Connections (to other experiences)
• Future steps

I also created and turned in my project proposal and established an outline of my project:

Problem: Grant applicants are getting denied because their requests do not fit the purpose for the applied grant.

Solution: A code that analyzes a Google Form to guide a grant requester to their best-fit grant form.

Parts of the form:

• Association with Uni (student or faculty)
• A multiple choice question about the purpose for the money
• Requested amount (After submission)
• Best match(es) for grants to apply for and their links
• Who to contact for additional help

Things to think about:

• What grants are out there and still being funded?
• What if there are changes to available grants in the future?
• What if the application is asking for an amount exceeding the best-fit grant’s revenue?
• How can the program be implemented to be accessible for all grant applicants?
• Does using Google Forms impact memory/storage?

Timeline: D1-D4: Know and organize all grants, Figure out programming aspect of project (API? GSpread?) D5-D6: Create Google Form D7-D9: Code and test
