Reflection on improvements to be made on a padlet from AS1

patrickhobbins00 — 2018-10-30 11:20:08 UTC

In this padlet for AS2 I will attempt to update it more outside of the lesson rather than limiting it to only being from what I'm required to add within lesson, also be more thorough with what I add and be more clear, as well be more consistent in updates to this padlet as compared to my AS1 padlet.

Learning Outcome/ Marking Criteria

patrickhobbins00 — 2018-11-13 11:53:43 UTC

It's good to know the marking criteria/ learning outcome as we can plan ahead and attach our work to it in order to give us a guide into what I should be doing, what I need to achieve to make sure my work is good

Changes made to my action plan

patrickhobbins00 — 2018-11-27 11:26:04 UTC

In order to keep up with the course of the lessons, a slight modification had to be made to my plan, I have already made rapid progress and am ahead on the action plan. At the rate I'm going at I should be done in time for the deadline

Draft Introduction

patrickhobbins00 — 2018-11-27 11:48:10 UTC

History has proven itself to be very important to different walks of life. Whether it be throughout school or moving on to university, even going into the work force, history provides essential skills for certain jobs outside of simply teaching the subject and teaches valuable lessons learned from the past. Journal articles have looked at the influences of history and its importance outside of its own area, alongside outside influences interfering with history curriculums and serving as a backdrop for the analysis of learning styles. Although the research gap identified is the importance of history in the workforce.

Feedback - Sentences could go on for too long and the last article had a very brief summary

Reflection on Assignment 2

patrickhobbins00 — 2018-12-13 02:45:46 UTC

Assignment 2 had me construct a document which within I identified a research gap within the articles I had gathered from AS1.I found that it was slightly more challenging than the previous assignment, although I certainly found it useful, I had not done something like this in sixth form, and it will certainly prove useful for future. The experience overall the positive one and I will intend to carry the experience I gained over into other assignments. Planned improvements include a more thought out draft plan that adhered better with the lessons and to do more outside of lessons.
