Knowledge Gained: What did I learn this week, academically and personally?This week I learnt I am doing better than I thought I was, both academically and personally. I received the marks back for 2 assessment pieces and was blown away by my marks. Not only did I receive a satisfactory grade from this class, but I also received a High Distinction. Which I have never achieved in the past and this definitely gave me a substantial nudge that I was heading in the right direction. Personally, the wheels still haven't fallen off. While some things have had to be sacrificed, predominantly things are still motoring along nicely, and I also wanted to pat myself on the back for this!
- Challenges: What obstacles did I face, and how did I overcome them?
Both this week and next will present some challenged due to timeframes as this week is a short week in Townsville due to our local show being held. My time management skills are keeping me above water currently, but I also was unable to attend my class live and I definitely found finding this extra time elsewhere a huge struggle.
- Successes & Strengths: What successes or strengths did I recognise in myself this week?
My grades are certainly the most standout, but in conjunction with this I have also had the pleasure of fitting a lot of family time into this weekend and it has certainly made my heart sing!
- Application: How can I apply what I have learned?
I must stay the path. Regardless of the challenges one week is never the same as the next and as long as I stick to my non-negotiables and prioritise what is truly important, I will get through. Apparently even with flying colours at times!
- Areas for Improvement: What skills or knowledge would I like to develop further?
There is definitely still room for improvement. I have another assessment due this coming week and obviously the assessment for this class is coming up also and I definitely need to take some time to get ahead on these so that they don't have to be last minute. I have dedicated 2 days purely to assessments this week coming.
- Goals: Based on my reflections, what personal goals can I set for the coming week?
Complete and submit my assessment for Graphic Communication this week and complete one of my cubes for assessment 2 for this class also!
Woo hoo, sounds like you are back on track. You are going to have good and bad weeks, sometimes they will really weigh you down, but setbacks are just that, they set us back a little bit, we learn, we pivot and we grow. How good does it feel to see the results of your hard work. Well done!
