Time to resurrect this blog......

.....clear.........shocking!!!!

 Ok it appears to be alive, thank god!

So I have started work experience with the Level 0 students on their dark room projects this term.  I think my first session has gone well and there are some talented students amongst them.  So far I have been there for their project briefing and have supported them in the darkroom........there are some know-it-alls but mostly they are keen to learn and very engaged with their learning.  I look forward to next week!

Would forget my head.....

.....if it wasn't screwed on!!!! Forgot to post my evaluation on here from my WBL, so here it is better late than never ;)








Work Based Learning has been very insightful, although alot of it was aimed towards people wanting to go into commercial photography I was able to tailor it to my chosen career path quite easily.  I have managed to secure work experienc with Extended degree students, helping them with their darkroom practises and hope to continue this on next year.  I have also been able to set up a work placement at a local community college to sample teaching at secondary level as well.
I have found the lectures helpful with other areas within my college life, especially my presentation skills!!  And I have managed to update my CV something which i haven't done for a few years so it was really in need of attention.
I am looking forward to putting my research from this module into practise next year and pushing on with my chosen career path.  I have been given much encouragement with this from all of my lecturers and hope that I am building the skills needed throughout this module.

OMG!

Just realised how much work i have left to do for WBL aaarrrrghhhhhhhhhh!!!!!
