Assessment Tasks

In this first assignment you should produce an account of your learning in the first six weeks of the semester.

Consider your experiences on this module, the feedback you have received on your portfolio entries and your own reflection on the material covered so far.

Your account should discuss the following points:

1. What have been the most important learning insights you have had so far?

2. Looking at your learning logs and the PDP please identify:
a. what your strengths are
b.which areas of your work need improvement.

3. What do you want to do next? Identify one of the areas of your work that needs improvement and outline 2 or 3 ideas for its development.

Please attach your weekly learning logs (for weeks 1 to 6) and the fortnightly updated Personal Development Plans (PDPs) as an appendix.
