Welcome back - September Term and Final Module.


I enjoyed speaking to everyone on the Welcome back skype on Friday, it was great hearing familiar voices along with new ones! The break has given me headspace and enabled me to see things with a fresh set of eyes. I have used this week to read handbooks, research literature, complete the online quiz and get back into the swing of things.

I have scheduled myself a full day a week to get stuck into my Uni work, this being a Thursday. Due to a hectic teaching schedule, this is my only full day off apart from a Sunday but this is mainly spent planning lessons for the week ahead. I constantly dip into work when I have a spare hour here and there throughout the week but Thursday is my day to really make headway.

A start has been made today and I hope to keep at this pace so I don't feel as rushed as I did in the last Module. My advice to anyone starting on Module 1 would be to plan time effectively, with it being a part-time course sometimes it takes a back seat which is understandable when you have a full-time job, however planning to spend time on it and not putting it off will help greatly when it comes to the last few weeks.

As a self employed performer who also teaches my approach to knowledge is transdisciplinary. As more than one discipline is being used to contextualise my knowledge. Therefore when thinking of Areas of Learning I was relating to life auditioning as a professional dancer and life teaching. I came up with a few different ideas some are more vague then others.. Throughout private dance classes growing up I always danced in front of a mirror so learnt how to self correct. This was then carried through to today when I attend auditions to watc...

Presentation!

I have been reflecting on my inquiry process while making my artefact and thinking of the best way to present it. Has anyone else had any thoughts on their presentation and how they are going to fit 12 weeks of work into a concise explanation? I think because my line of inquiry has interested me so much I could talk about it for hours but that's no good! I do look forward to hearing about everyone else's inquiries though! Comment below if you have been thinking about your presentation too. Sam x
