Online Group Discussion - Tuesday 16th October

On Tuesday night I attended the twilight Skype discussion for all modules. I wasn't added to the group until half way through so did miss a lot of the conversation but there are a couple of things I took away from it. 1.  Professional Artefact While I understand that my professional artefact should connect with and develop from my inquiry write up, I have been wondering if I should have some idea of what form it might take by now. I am just very aware that time is moving fast and will probably feel even quicker as we get closer to our final deadline and Christmas. Helen was quick so say a definite NO, and that actually if someone did already have an idea of what their artefact might be she would be telling them to scrap it. This was a relief, as were the comments from some of the other Module 3s that the same thing had crossed their minds. I am not alone! 2.  Literature I'm not sure who started the conversation but we spoke about stepping out of our creative arts bubbles

So we're halfway through week 3 already and time is moving scarily fast, as it has for my entire BAPP journey so far! I attended the 'Welcome back' Skype session on Sunday 16th September, which was mostly about looking at the new course page online and going through some of the new forms and documents. Over the following week I wrote up my response to my Module 2 feedback and my study plan. Although my study plan didn't reveal anything I didn't already know, it was helpful to write in black and white how I learn, how I plan to use my time and the Skype sessions I plan to attend. I then attended an all-module Skype discussion on Tuesday 25th September. I didn't have anything specific in mind to speak about but thought it would be beneficial to engage with other students in any discussion. I feel like I ended up offering lots of my own experiences and advice to students in Modules 1 and 2 and actually found it really helpful to revisit ideas from earlier in
