Tim & Austin
This week, we learned how to use new hardware and tools in order to expedite the Chromebook repair system. First, we received a variety of power tools including an electric, cordless screwdriver with a flashlight. This would help open and repair Chromebooks quicker without the tedious screwing and unscrewing of the back cover. We also returned the repaired desktop computer back to Ms. Annitti's room and replaced it with her current one. We ended the week by packaging broken Chromebooks into boxes to be shipped to the Dell Repair Depot. Finally, Mr. Gbaguidi taught us the importance of maintaining professional work attitudes. He taught us the various topics and customs in workplaces such as avoiding discussion of politics and religion. This was very useful as it provided us with new information that we could with use in our future occupations.GaHyun & Gene
This week, we focused on many of the similar tasks worked on by Austin and Tim. We also sent out the Chromebooks that were broken the previous week. By contacting the Dell Repair Depot, we had successfully sent out three Chromebooks with keyboard issues, screen issues, etc. Like Tim and Austin, we also were able to take advantage of the tools Mr. Gbaguidi had provided us in order to improve our repairing of Chromebooks. We discussed the issue of a computer's fan being too loud. Although we had replaced the fan before, the issue had reappeared again. Mr. Gbaguidi decided that if the issue continued, it would be better to buy another computer rather than another processor.
