It would seem I have spent the majority of my evening working out how to even use this! This whole 'blogging' process is very new to me and already being the technophobe I am, just makes this even trickier.. I am however, slowly but surely getting the hang of it (I hope)!!
Now.. What to write..
So I have just graduated from The Hammond with a Diploma in Professional Dance and I am now currently working at a local high school helping teach GCSE and BTEc dance as well as an after school dance club for years 7, 8 & 9. From leaving The Hammond I decided that secondary teaching was the path I wanted to take and this is why I applied to do the BAPP course - I then hope to go on to a PGCE in Performing Arts.
Yesterday was our induction down at Middlesex University and a chance to meet not only Paula and Alan but also the other people starting the BAPP course too. With Alan particularly, we discussed how an important aspect of this first module is about reflection and how we can use it to find meaning to what we are doing. It is also key to our own professional development as it involves active thinking ultimately helping us improve the way we think.
I welcome any comments as to how this could perhaps be improved? And I hope to meet you all again at the next campus session :)
Hey Amy...yours is the first blog i have read from our course and I'm relived to see that mine seems to be along the same lines, which means i should have done it right! I like your about me section :) The only thing i would say is are you going to write up about the newspaper task we did on the induction day, i can't remember what yours was, so would be interested to see what you had to say! x
ReplyDeleteAh thank you! I read yours first too and thought it was really good. I liked what you wrote about the article you chose and I must admit, after reading how you had related what you had read to your family, it put me off writing about mine as I purely chose it because I thought the dresses were ugly!! (My article was about what four "celebrities" had worn to the Emmy's). Maybe I will make it my next blog but I was just unsure what to say...
DeleteI took me ages to work out how to create all my profile stuff Aswell. Finally got there in the end though haha.
ReplyDeleteI am glad I was not alone.. I am still confused and trying to work everything out! Perhaps I should blog about how confusing it is to blog?! (Well for me anyway!)
