Coffee shop Skype catch up

Unfortunately I missed the Skype session on Tuesday but luckily some of the participants have blogged about the conversations that occurred so I don't feel like I've completely missed out. One thing that Lois-May said was about talking about my inquiry with someone external to the course and requesting them to ask some questions on areas that they didn't understand. I think that this is a good idea because often I get so caught up in my own work that I forget how it might seem from someone else's perspective, so I think this is a good point for me to bare in mind.

Topics of discussion:

Explaining the process - when explaining the process it was discussed to reference over what you have learnt in all three modules rather than just looking at module 3.

Criticial reflection - Journalling. A constant theme all the ways throughout all of the modules and also blog posts as well. We can reflect on these to see how our thoughts differ and opinions and ideas change. This is all part of the learning process and the journal is a great method of reflection. 


The person reading our work needs to know where we've come from. These thoughts relay back to talking to someone external to the inquiry and helping it make sense for them. 

• What you did 
• Literature
• Finding
• Gives us a sense of whats happened.

MY ARTEFACT:

I have been stressing a bit recently because I've been conscious that time is ticking and I've not yet decided on how I am going to present my artefact. However, I've come to realise that there is no point on my trying to think about how to present my findings before I have even analysed them. So I think for the moment I am just going to concentrate on the analysis and critical review and then when my ideas are clearer in my head I will concentrate more on how to present these findings.
