2nd week - Brief reflections

On reflection of the Brief theme of HIV, Alive and Well and the recommended websites gained a jumble of ideas and emotional insight of personal experiences.

 A refuel of fun and brain cells requires a tip top fishy diet at my first sushi restaurant.
A wasabi experiment required a flower tea to cool my “mooth”.     



A seed of an idea for the mind map, Personal learning Plan (PLP) and time plan.
A ticking time planned PLP gathers no moss by Primary research preparation: - Charging digital camera, phone and gathering sketchbook, watercolours, cassette audio recorder (Digital not working).  Yes Folks a cassette recorder!  Old technology working is adeptly proven by “Voyager” Space probe leaving our solar system.  Do you think it’s too late to join it?
The beginning of Primary Research:
·         local Shops, sourcing & Pricing Materials for Project costs ££££
·           Site Visit to NHS Forth valley Hospital Larbert :

This inspiring research aided the completion of draft PLP and time plan within submission deadline to tutor.  Tutor feedback of draft PLP suggested redraft.  The best laid plans of mice and men eh!  A redrafted PLP sent off to the internet for tutor feedback.  Keeping fingers cross. 

PDP PowerPoint Presentation
An informative exercise as fellow comrades with similar outlook advised to combine forces to help each other.   The helpful aid of “Facebook” is already up and running.  This is a small step for some, a giant leap for me.  Where is “Voyeur”?
The next class project is a 5 minute seminar with 3 of my class comrades with information sheet issued by tutor and available on Moodle. 
The bad news is the information sheet left behind in class and College Moodle access denied. 
The good news suddenly gained Moodle access to BAD3 PDP.  Progress at last yippee! Now I just need access to BAD3 studio practice1now.  Please!!!
The PDP seminar research begins with Greek cuisine and Zorba dancing.  I seem to be developing a research technique eh!  
Contextual Studies
Directed study advised by course tutor.  I confirmed directed study with an e-mail to unit tutor. 
The mysteries of the Moodle are when I gained Moodle access to BAD2 Contextual Studies and denied BAD3 Studio Practice 1.
