First Class of 2024

So, we are back from the break! 

I managed to get a lot done over the holiday period, mostly researching my topic and finding areas I want to focus on. I still feel like I've got a long way to go but overall feel good about it all. 

Yesterday's class was really useful for me, it was so interesting to hear everyone's topics and approaches and to be able to bounce off each other. I do wish we had all shown our PowerPoints because I keep changing mine and I can't decide which setup is best. I am still not home until next week, but once I get back I hope to book in a tutorial and actually go through my entire presentation in depth. I think my MORE form is ready to be sent off but I do want to go through everything one more time on my own before submitting it next Monday. 

That's all from me for now. I feel pretty good about Module 2 but mostly I feel ready to actually get started on my research project in Module 3. I know I shouldn't try to fast forward time as it's all going to go so quickly now, but I can't help but want to get stuck into it all.

I've Been Busy

Hello again!  It's been quite a while since I've blogged - I got totally swept with Module 2 and then Module 3.  I struggled getting through Module 2 and felt I didn't really get the support I needed for it, but I was still able to get a reasonable mark so I'm very relieved about that.  Module 3 is my favourite at the moment. I'm loving having more time dedicated to researching my specific topic(s), even though there's not that much out there. Earlier this week I (finally) got approval from the Ethics Committee to carry out my own research so that was very exciting. I can't say I was thrilled about how delayed it was - I was hoping to have completed my research by now, not have not started it yet - but so it goes. Now that I'm finally starting to get responses from the general public I'm getting even more excited (and a bit nervous) about my essay.  I can't believe we've only got about 6 weeks left (maybe 7?), it really has flown by!  Hopeful...

Getting There

It's been a bit busy and I definitely, like so many others, felt that increased tension as we were getting closer to the deadline and I was still waiting to collect results and write the second half of my essay (as well as getting started on my artefact).  Now, with less than two weeks to go, I'm feeling a lot better. I've completed my first full draft and sent it off for my tutor to have a look at and I've even completed a full draft of my artefact. I have no idea if I'm on the right track with either but will hopefully find out more tomorrow during my tutorial and then (hopefully) still have enough time to fix everything.  When graduation tickets became available, I did not feel like I was ready to purchase them as I genuinely did not feel I would necessarily have everything done on time. I'm not feeling a lot better about it and even if something happens that now prevents me from working anymore on anything, at least I'll have something to present. (Hopef...
