Lara/22/Australia
I'm completing my Bachelor of Education (Primary and Middle) with Honours, and this semester I'm required to keep up to date with reflections of my learning, understanding, and progress as I prepare for a research project, my final prac, and attempting to get a job.
These are my thoughts.
Intended Action: Finalise Project Proposal to submit Monday 16th
What Actually Happened: Had to reword and cull down on many sections that were over the word limit, completed readings for literature review and finished writing that section, as well as keeping a list of further texts to explore for the final report. Also finished my reflections.
Comments/Reflections: I am feeling overwhelmed. This project proposal is due, and I have a number of things I’m hoping to get done before Prac starts, and that’s only 2 weeks away. I don’t know how I’m going to manage it. I mean, I probably will… and at least I don’t have EQ interviews to worry about… but I just feel like I have a thousands things to do and no time to do them in. At least is assignment is almost over (for the time being). I’ve noticed a certain trend occurring in the tasks that I must do, and the tasks that I want to do – for example I am really excited for my Professional Portfolio (I’m creating a website) and I find myself inadvertently focusing and planning it, while a task like the Narratives task, where I must remember past events and analyse things – I find myself avoiding it. I’ve not yet discovered the reasons for this, just that it’s interesting to note. I am still a little at a loss for how exactly my research on prac will pan out, but I feel better knowing I have the support of my teachers in the endeavour.
