End of module Self-Evaluation
What skills have you developed through this module and how effectively do you think you have applied them?

An awareness of layout and presentation has been useful, if not always applying it the understanding is always there and considerations are made. Other workshops such as colour theory and generally this visual language module has made me, overall more considerate to smaller and more precise issues.

What approaches to/methods of research have you developed and how have they informed your design development process?
From the research into the letter 'A' and being directed to take a range of photograph, this had shown me that the more research (especially image based) the more informed you are when designing later on so this has really helped my development generally.

What strengths can you identify in your work and how have you/will you capitalize on these?
In my work I believe I have a better background to my work, I follow a wider way of development and this allows me to learn more about the subject I am working with.

What weaknesses can you identify in your work and how will you adress these more fully?
My final resolutions are still not very strong, I need to develop my software skills and polish my presentation skills. I want the outcomes to represent how much I have learnt and how much there is to represent. I also need to keep blogging, showing my development and explaining my decisions. Some sessions we did were photographed, then not blogged straight away, resulting in a lack of evidence.

Identify five things that you will do differently next time and what do you expect to gain from doing these?
Draw more, wider range of final pieces.
Practice on software, better final pieces and generally less time wasted.
Blog more regularly, a more detailed exploration and possibly a stronger appreciation for 'happy accidents'
Manage my time more effectively - to do lists, create more and time not wasted.
Photograph more regularly, better skills and informed outcomes
