Tuesday Discussion Group

This was the first group discussion for the term. At first I found it a bit overwhelming, but it felt very good to listen to things that people from other modules had to say. It was very helpful.

Being part of this discussion made me realise how networking is not just about the obvious things such as social media, but there is more to it - we need to think outside the box.

I also made myself aware that I should certainly dedicate time to looking at other people's blogs, not just from my module but also from module 2 and 3.

I feel that I am starting to get the hang of it now.

Pleased to meet you :)

Trying to get used to all these meet and greets virtually, but certainly cannot complain - what would we do if it was not for technology?! On Thursday, I had my one to one with my supervisor, Maria and it was great. As the conversation went on, she got to know more about myself and what my practice is. I shared some ways of how I prefer to study, plan my work and I asked any questions that I had.  In the meantime, I have started to read through the handbook in order to take note of any ideas that come to my head as I read the lenses.

Skype Welcoming Call!

I was quite nervous till the Skype call got going, but then I quickly calmed down and felt at ease as we were shown around the UniHub. I have to say that this is my first time doing a course with a University so the Skype call was of great help to see how the Website works and where all the folders are and what they include.  The most thing that drew my attention and that I am really looking forward to use is the library service. Initially I was a bit unsure and worried about how I would be able to do all the required research and readings. Looking forward to work with my supervisor and get on with this course!
