Wow, we are into the second
week hopefully you are starting to organise your thinking in terms of what you
need to do through the process of this module.
Module One’s:
I think it might be a good idea to read the introductory handbook and highlight
the ideas that jump out at you at this stage. This is just so you can look back
at where you began later in the year. This whole course is a process and it is
being aware of the process itself that will be most helpful to you. That means
allowing yourself to change your mind, or develop an idea or notice something
new. By noting what first resonates with you, you will be able to mark a kind
of beginning point. Getting your blog started and a beginning a reflective
diary are two activities that almost need to become habits so it is good to get
on top of these as soon as possible. Next for RoL students (which all the
September 2012 students are) you need to be really clear about what you are
required to hand-in for assessment. This is a document that presents critical
discussion about areas of learning you are claiming as prior learning gathered
through your experience. You are also writing about them at MA level which is
beyond a list of activities or events. MA level is a critical discussion about
what these events mean, using events to present themes, and being able to look
at your role in the learning process. You kind of need a list of things you’ve
done to work from. See my blog post
Module Two’s: this module
covers a lot of new things. I think getting the reading of the handbook under
your belt as soon as possible is really important. Then it might be useful to blog about the different types of
research models you have experienced before. Also look at a book such as Bell
(list in the bibliography in the handbook) might be useful. Look at some of the
other literature mentioned in the handbook might also be useful as you
construct a new working relationship with research Methods.
What do you think, feel,
notice?
