REFLECTING ON FA: Design Studio

The assessment wasn't as per my expectation and I was a little disappointed but I somehow knew in my mind what the feedback was going to be. So after a discussion with the tutors, I was satisfied and accepted the feedback as a feed-forward to improve.

MY AREAS OF STRENGTH:

• Good understanding: I believe that I have fairly good understanding of material and characteristics as evident through the creative process.

• Recording of blog on the same day

• Completing the tasks on time: I was able to complete most of the tasks within the time limit given.

MY AREAS OF IMPROVEMENT:

• More Reflective approach: I need to focus on writing what I have learnt and made sense about from the activity.

• More interaction: I need to interact more with the tutors, taking part in class discussions and taking initiative to receive feedback.

• More conscious approach: I need to have a more conscious approach keeping in mind the principles of design in order to improve.

Due to late joining, I was already behind the other students who have been attending the classes since day 1 and I think it is because of this, I was not able perform my best. Had I attended the regular sessions, maybe my feedback would have been up to my expectations.

Starting from term 2, I have pushed my abilities taking initiative during the class discussions and giving feedbacks. Most importantly, I have also tried to improve my work based on the constructive feedback I received from other peers and tutors.
