Autumn term: Personal review

ASK YOURSELF:

·      What is this course or module about?

·      Why is this course or module valuable as part of my programme of study?

·      What can I learn about my subject by writing this essay/doing this project?

·      What skills can I develop by writing this essay/doing this project?

hHere is my rough mind-maps of both modules I took last term: "Producing Media for Development and Social Change" and "Critical perspectives on media, development and social change"

Personal evaluation is important, especially if you could write it down (or map it like a messy-storm) . It helps me a lot to realize what I really have learned. Some of the most unexpected lessons eventually popped-out. This enables me to know where I stand and which step I should take next.  This also introduces me to the new ways of giving praise and counting my blessings! I thank God for the autumn term, for the enjoyable moments and also for the hardships. I thank God for the amazing grades: A and A- . It is really beyond my imagination.  Coming to study in the UK with the system one would never be good enough for (haha pls read: http://matadornetwork.com/life/5-differences-going-college-us-vs-uk/ ) really makes me put my expectation low (esp. after being laughed at by your very-own lecturer after your very first lecture in your very first week of school :3 )

I now know what skills to improve and what topic to pursue. My academic writing skills are (obviously) really awful and my passion relies in telling visual stories! :) Yup, Gotta fix that! And I am so ready for the next semester!
