What I have included:
I have included a step by step guide to how I carried out my assignment.
I've also included a guide to my sources about my concepts.
Sadly the times my assignment was reviewed by my peers all four meetings were conducted in person and I altered my text then.

I have added the things that I have to my padlet because I feel that they offer a valuable insight into the way I went about creating my AS1 assignment. I have next to no notes other than some scribbles. The reason for this what because I was so concerned with my finished product that I neglected to considered that the process of this was also part of my assignment. However, despite this I will try to show my train of thought when writing my assignment. I have left some certain parts out when analysing a sentence because words such as connectives, I didn't feel added to the analysis.

Brain storming ideas about which concepts I would be researching and then analysing.

List of possible ideas I thought about moving forward with:
Sexism - I chose not to move forward with sexism because I didn't feel like it met the criteria for this task and I didn't feel like it met the concept part of this task.
Ethics - I chose ethics because it is a concept I enjoy and have researched in the past. I also have had lectures in the past explaining this concept and I wished to learn more about it.

Base principles of banks and banking - The reason I elected not to follow through with this idea was down to the fact, I didn't feel I was interested in this concept enough, to put forward a piece of work I could be proud of.
Regulations - This concept was chosen down to the fact, that I felt it would benefit me in the long term if I knew more about how to write within this financial sector concept.
Ethnic discrimination - I didn't feel it would be correct for someone such as myself to offer an opinion on this.

I started by noting down and writing what I already knew about my chosen concepts.

I researched my home degree concepts and then took information and thoughts from them and merged them with my own.

I asked a peer (Josh Scrivin) and a published journal author (Nicola Mullins) to read threw what I had wrote and give me feedback on what could be improved. Improvements consisted of such as spelling, grammar and the main one was the fact, because my piece had been written over a period of time, it seemed partly disjointed. I corrected this by going back over my piece and rewriting parts, to give the text more of a flow

I researched SFL and LCT, as well as writing what I could re-call from previous lectures. This then became the Discussing LCT and SFL section of my piece.

At this point I remembered that I should check the credit-ability of the sources that I have elected to use. So I went back and checked them, fortunately they all at least to me seemed creditable and they met certain criteria I was looking for, such as cited by a certain amount of people, peer reviewed or were recently written or revised.

At this point of my assignment I began to analyse the introductions of the pieces I chose to analyse. In my piece I chose to compare and contrast the choices in the texts and the code I thought they would fall under.

# data[].attributes.body
This final step was that of writing my conclusion and stating what I found and what the meaning is behind what I found. Also what I learnt and how this could be applied to future assignments, especially in my home degree.

I feel this assignment went well considering my very poor attendance throughout the second term. I feel it could of gone better and that I could of added more detail when doing the analysis. This timeline I also felt could of contained more actual evidence. Obviously my sources weren't ideal.

# data[].attributes.body
My time management was very poor up until the last few weeks when I wrote my assignment to completion. So the before sections where I was setting up to complete my was written over, when I was finishing my piece.

Reasons for poor attendance and possible poor assignment.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm not making excuses as to my poor attendance just trying to offer a reasoning behind it. I struggled to settle at university and miss reading a FDN 009 assignment deadline which I have completed. So as I know they're compulsory and needed to proceed to next year, I felt there was no need to try with anything else. However, I chose to give it a try and hope for the best in the end. Also some personal issues I've been going through for a while, didn't help.
Sorry for my lack of commitment and effort regarding FDN 009 second term.
