Establishing Professional Practice 28/01/13 Week 2 Module name: Timetable hours: Hours attended: Additional hours:
Design & Materials 450 minutes 150 minutes (Outdoor nature trail) 200 minutes
What I expect to achieve: By the end of this week I expect to have presented ‘New Materials’ to my peers. What have I achieved? I did not do the presentation as planed because there was some confusion with the brief. The dates were muddled up and I was so convinced that I was presenting on Friday. The few ones that knew the dates presented their materials on Tuesday, which I later realized. In the future I need to confirm any doubts that I have and read the brief properly. Did I visit any galleries to further my knowledge? I did not go to any galleries this week but I went to take pictures at ‘The hive in the cliff ‘(outdoor nature trail). What do I think/feel about my achievements? I did not meet my expectations this week, so I am not happy about that. On the other hand I managed to complete some outstanding notes for ‘3D Design Procedures & Practice’ (previous modular) and ‘Establishing Professional Practice’ (ongoing). That was quite a relief because it was starting to pile up. What did I learn this week? I learned about ‘The hive in the cliff’ and took pictures of the area to support my design process. I also noticed that I have to be more cautious with my time management so that I give myself enough time to get through any work. What will I do next...? I am going to present ‘New Materials’ on Tuesday if everything goes as planned. In addition to that I intend to continue work on my sketchbook journal.
