Blog as Process Journal
Everybody will be required to use a blog for monthly reflections. These reflections should be written in the last week of the month and will be used by your supervisor, your parents and the Ms. Law to get a good sense of your progress. In your monthly reflection you should be sure to use the category Personal Project (at least)and to include appropriate tags. You can include images or video of your product as you develop it, links to sources or other ideas, as well as answer some or all of these questions:
-
What did you accomplished this past month?
-
What new issues have come up?
-
How many meetings did you have with your supervisor? How did they go?
-
What will you try to accomplish in the coming month?
For your day-to-day process journal, you can choose format that suits your learning and working style. Choose a format that allows you to be organised and chaotic, tidy and messy, because you will be putting scraps as well as good documents into it. You therefore can choose from a number of formats:
-
Scrapbook
-
Notebook
-
OneNote
-
Wiki
-
Blog
-
Something else?
