Some questions before the Assessment

What have you developed and learned over the unit?


In the beginning of this course, I was a bit unsure about what I wanted to do. I struggled finding good projects and I did some strange movie projects (f ex handwritten news). I was not used to the self-structured form of learning, and felt a bit lost. Now I have a many projects that I'm working on at the same time, and I feel that I've finally creating something good.

What has succeeded and what has failed over the unit?


I had a hard time from the beginning of the course to a while after Christmas. I mentioned it at a presentation, and said that I considered changing the subject of my MA (I did not wanted to do handwriting anymore), but then I got convinced that I should keep trying, which I'm really happy about now. 

I feel like the beginning of the year was a bit a failure, I haven’t produced anything good from that period, but at the same time, I learn a lot. I wouldn’t been where I am today with all my projects if it wasn’t for all that testing and failing. I feel like my projects are getting better and better, especially the recent ones.

Has your project proposal changed or developed since its submission?


Has your study plan changed?


Yeah, it has changed a bit, but not radically. In the beginning I wanted to do something huge that involved many people, but now I like to just focus on the things behind everything, more the difference between computer based type and handwritten letters.

What changes did you make as a result of feedback you received in the Mid Point Review?


I have not worked that much more on the project I showed at the Mid Point reviews but someone told me that I should try to put the posters in a book, and try the book format rather than the poster. I tried that, and it was a much better idea.
