Tutorial Feedback...

Throughout the year, I’ve felt having feedback has been slow. I had one tutorial on the 11.11.09 where we talked about how I had settled in to the course. I wasn’t worried about the course and from my tutorial sheet, I was, and still am, happy and enjoying the course. The targets which me and Alison devised for myself was to improve my time management, tackling my research folder first, getting it out of the way and gaining the appropriate knowledge before diving head first into the creative side of the modules. The plan in which Alison wanted me to follow was:

Week 1 – Research what was to be learnt about.

Week 2 – Research product and start with ideas.

Week 3 – Ideas and development

Week 4 – Final Idea

Throughout each module I have tried to stick to this plan, detailing it in my own way of using a calendar plan.

My next tutorial session was on the 27.01.10 where I felt I needed to talk to Kay about the problems I had been having at home, as I felt they were distracting me from my work. Having said that, she was happy with my marks and voiced to improve my research file by researching the Harvard Referencing system, showing evidence of it through my next module.

I try and reference my work, stating where I received the information I include but still don’t feel I do it accurately enough. Having said this, I am still unaware whether I’m doing right or where I need to improve due to the lack of feedback as we’ve done 5 other modules since then.

Overall from my tutorial forms, I feel both Alison and Kay are happy with my work and improvements so far. The feedback they give me I try to accurately improve on and work to my fullest on each project. My attendance I feel is at a high standard which both Alison and Kay agreed that it is of an excellent standard, having only missed a handful of days. My punctuality, progress and motivation is of a good standard, which I agree with.
