Submission and presentation planning

I have just submitted my artefact and essay I am overjoyed! Early... I know but I only had 2 free windows with reliable WiFi, today (4th) and as a back up Monday before the 10th deadline.

I had a tutorial today with Helen she expressed that my explanation for my artefact was too long and that it should only consist of a small paragraph and the artefact should be self explanatory. So I had to do a last minute rewrite and just have confidence that my dance / choreography is self explanatory! 

I also asked a few questions with regards to the presentations in January.

Obviously we have to explain our topic of inquiry and then what we did during our project. 

Helen said to mostly talk about what we have learnt as that's the main aim for these presentations. 

It's good to speak about what will happen next and how we plan on developing our practice in the future too. 

We will show our artefact during the presentation. 

Helen said we should be talking for 20 minutes. If we don't quite speak for that long she said there will be more of a chance  that the tutors will question us, so it's better to speak for longer! 

Helen said that this is more of a chance to question people where they feel there is a gap in their research project or to ask students they haven't spoken to much over this term to find out more about their Inquiry and what they have been doing. 

Hope this helps!

    Hi Emily,

    Thanks so much for posting this - I've just been having a mild panic about my artifact as it's complete but I was writing a script to record over a video of it explaining it. So now I know I have written way too much!!! I know it's indicative of 2500 words so I had been working towards that. Wow so I can cut nearly everything out and save alot of it for my presentation I think.
    Thank you again for posting this.
    Just getting my word count down now too for my essay. Think I'll be finished on Thursday with the final version. Well done for getting it completed and early too! Looking forward to your presentation.
    Lauren xx

Interviews! Interviews! Interviews!

Interviews? Yesterday module 2 had a really insightful discussion session with supervisor Sam Murray who specialises in ethnographic research. Below are some of the key points that Sam raised in the discussion for anyone that missed it! Also this will be helpful to revisit and reflect on when we are in module 3 and actually have to create our interview questions!!! (dun dun duuuuuunnnn!!!!!!!- This scares me haha) Sams Interview Hints and Tips -In an interview think of being a data collection computer, you want to take in lots of information and learn new things! -Don’t ask leading questions and don’t have a fixed idea. You want to be open and use broad questions to get as much out of the discussion. Don’t force your opinion. -Let the data speak for its self  -In an interview you will always be surprised by peoples answers, so don’t presume what they are going to say. -You are collecting peoples stories -Create a set of questions that are open and that you feel confident asking! -W...

I am looking forward to getting my feedback so I can get stuck in and amend what needs to be changed and get this module ticked off!  ...  Colour evokes feeling.  Colour incites emotion.

AM BAPP Twillight Nov 25th Skype - Summerising

Summerising ‘Summarising is defined as taking a lot of information and creating a condensed version that covers the main points.’ Yourdictionary.com. 2020. SUMMARIZING | 2 Definitions Of Summarizing - Yourdictionary . [online] Available at: <https://www.yourdictionary.com/summarizing> [Accessed 26 November 2020]. Todays Skype was about summarising what we are working on at the moment. For module 1, this is our essay and our artefact reflecting on our practise. I must admit, I listened to a lot of this session and I found it particulary interesting to listen to the module 3 students talking about their final projects and artefacts! Adesola explained that the artefact is just a different way of communicating and expressing what we have written in our essays. She explained that you should be able to look at someones essay and their artefact and know that they are linked and are reflection of each other. Obviously I have been busy making my artefact and I feel like the more time I sp...
