Wrote 3,000 words then had to start over!! :)

So here is an update.....


I wrote 3,000 words of my critical review. I then sent it to my brother who then helped me construct a plan of what needs to be written and where it needs to be written. He didn't help me with the content as I class that as cheating. But the plan is in place and I am back on track.


How are you all getting on??

This is where you all come in

Hello everyone, I know you are all busy with work and your Uni work, but I need to ask a favour. To help with my Analysis I wondered if we can have an open discussion on the literature I found and whether you think the literature is worthy of it's title.

My literature is research on the Arts Award (which is run by Trinity College in partnership with Arts Council England) and is run in most Razzamataz's across the country.

Below is a few links to What the Arts Award is, What grades it is equivalent to, How it's run and more.

I would appreciate your views and a general discussion on this subject.


What is Arts Award?

Bronze Level

Silver Level Pt 1

Silver Level Pt 2

Gold Level Pt 1

Gold Level Pt 2

Qualification Comparison

Thanks in Advance

Hi all! Just wondering if anyone who is in the teaching world who is submitting in May has done their Analysis of the Findings in their Critical Review? I would love to have an SIG/Blog chat on it if that's ok. 

Have a good Easter all!

So I write here late as it is. I know I don't write on here often enough and I am sorry for that. You may find I will keep apologising as I tend to forget about my blog.

But here is an update of where I am at the moment writing my critical review. I am halfway through the word count for the Evaluation of the Inquiry Process and about to start my Analysis as well.

Just also wanted to say Congratulations to all those who recently got their results. You are a shining example of this course and an inspiration (I'm sure) to all of us still doing the course. I wish you all the success and best for your futures.


Sarah P can we catch up this week and have a discussion on our work as we are in similar work places?

Till next time.....

Busy, Poorly, Lily

Hi all,

I am the worst person to blog ever. I haven't blogged because I've been knuckling down with work for uni and for Razz (which has been manic). All is going well and I will be trying to post at least twice a week from now on just so my blog doesn't appear dry.

I'm almost half way through my critical review and it gets regular checks on grammar from Duncan (my partner) and some friends who have been really supportive through the process. I'm not saying Paula and you all haven't been supportive you have been.

I'm going to catch up with what happened at the last campus session on the 22nd feb, and I shall hopefully see you at the next session.

Razzamataz

And I forgot to mention that I am still working for Razzamataz and we are going to have a ROCKIN' year ahead!!!!!!!!!!!

There is so much for me to look forward to and I cannot wait to post all the things we are going to be doing.


This year will be better than last year I can assure you.

GO RAZZAMATAZ!!!!


Deferring........

Hi everyone, I hope you've all had a good Christmas and New Year and are very well rested. I have decided to defer till May just because things are very manic at the moment and have been manic over December.

I wish you all the best of luck if you are doing your Oral Presentations this month, and I love being kept in the know of how things are going for you all. It puts a smile on my face.

I cannot wait till the summer when we all celebrate finishing University!!!!! We haven't got long to go!!!!


All the best


Lily

Hello there all!

Here is a quick update on where I am at.

I have sent of my interviews to be answered. I have completed my observation and almost half of my Critical Review. Earlier this week I thought I would have to defer but it looks like I am right on track. I will post more when I have collected my interviews.

How is everyone getting along??

Razzamataz's Christmas Spectacular!

So the last day of term was the 30th November which gives me the whole of December to complete uni work. I did do an observation of the Inters & Seniors presentation then but because of the rules I can only put this in the final product to be marked not on here. All I can say is they worked really hard to come this far and we hope they continue working hard next term.

I have done some case studies as well which looks at some issues that have come up at work (again I cannot disclose this as I have to protect the rights of the teachers & students.) But they too will be in the final product.

However I am still questioning how writing a possible artefact has a link in with what I do at Razzamataz. As a teaching assistant I have no control over what is taught and I am not allowed to teach there until I have finished my degree. If any of you out there on the course have some advice for me I would be really grateful.

Hope you all have a wonderful week

Lily
