Hello my name is Oona Thompson welcome to my blog
After yesterdays Skype call I found it very helpful in giving me an overview of the course. I have gathered a greater understanding of the degree and what I should expect over the next term. I learnt on uni hub when I log in you can go to "my learning" and then "BAPP" in this you can see your module handbook which I have since been reading through. I have also looked at the academic calendar and looking at the dates putting the dates of the Skype calls in my calendar so I can work around it. We were told by Helen on the call the deadline for any work is the 17th of December which is an important date in my calendar insuring I am organised and can plan up to that date. I have looked at the reading materials briefly since the call to familiarise myself with what we will be studying. I was told about filling out a study plan which I have since completed and sent back as we were told we will use in our first one to one Skype session with our supervisor. Helen said with every draft we send in we also should send in our feedback exchange form. There is also I reading list for each module online we can look up and if we need to we can get in contact with the librarian Michele. We are allowed one draft per module. Every piece of work must be submitted in a word document. The blogs and Skype discussions will be a useful resource in completing the course, Helen advised it is good to keep posting frequently. During office hours we are able to contact anyone of the supervisors if we need to and if we need a tutorial we can arrange one with our supervisor via email. Overall I found the Skype session useful in welcoming me onto the course.
