Reflection
Overall I think that this has been a difficult process in terms of my working practice, the visual element seems to be an idea and the making first. Then I continue to work in reverse this is not really a bad thing to be doing but it is making the written and research element quite difficult and laborious, this has slowed my progress down and has had impact on my motivation. I see this written has a huge barrier, I need to break it down.
I need to develop a way of making the written element and research aspect somehow more manageable because if this area is not addressed it will have an impact on my study especially with critical essays, critical/ theoretical engagement and articulation of my own work and working practice. I need to really learn how to reference.
I have also have been thinking why my reflective practice is one of my strengths and how to continue building on this. I understand that it is apart of my personality (introvert) and also it is something that I do on a daily basis at work within the healthcare sector reflective practice is a core skill and I have managed to transfer this skill to my working practice and engage in the same manner with fellow students. But because it is almost second nature I rarely think about how it works and David Kolb learning style makes complete sense in the way. I am currently working well but I do need to learn how effectively convert areas that I identify has weaknesses or I am going to fall into the trap of a repeating loop of a the same approach that I know isn’t working.
I have in the search of trying to improve the written and research element have focused on note taking and a system of classifying various areas, this is based on the Cornell method hopefully this will help improve this area which I am struggling with.
There is one issue that I had not consider in the making of this work - there is no audio with the speech, I had not taken into account people who can lip read. This would change the work and their viewing experience. Has it is an experimental piece and an approach I feel I can allow myself a little room for error.
