End of Module 2

-

Today I submitted all my work for Module 2 and to say what a relief it feels would be an understatement. This module has felt pretty full on but with the reward at the end of feeling like I've really achieved something.  Academically I feel like I've come a long way since module one with my understanding of academic language and how to put together a proposal and literature review. I've also gained knowledge in my professional practice and am excited to see what happens in module three next term!  Until then wishing all the modules on BAPP a relaxing break.  September seems such a long way off but I'm pretty sure it will be here before we know it!

    Congrats on submitting! I feel like the biggest weight has been lifted and now I'm keeping everything crossed for the results haha! September will be here before we know it and we'll be back at it with only one module to go! xxx

Questions, questions everywhere!

Today's skype call had a lovely flow where all participants added and built on the conversation.  It was so interesting to hear different view points and thoughts. One part of the call was on questions. Question words, question what my practice means to me, question the meaning behind something to understand and gain knowledge. I absolutely love the idea that we question to find out more not to find out answers. What we know is always changing therefore we have to keep questioning to remain up to date.  If we weren't constantly questioning how would things change? How would we develop in our practice?  Whether its me questioning others or others questioning and challenging me this is a key component of continuous learning which in turn is part of growth, development and evolution. We are born curious, with a thirst for knowledge.  The average child asks 73 questions a day*.  These questions play an important role in the Childs cognitive development. It's how they learn, a n

Module 2 so far!

Almost 3 weeks into the course and I feel like I've spent the majority of my time researching - researching how to research, methods of research, researching others blogs (mostly those who have already done module 2), researching different inquiry ideas, researching how to do a literature review, researching what things mean, researching what this is and that is - you get the gist!!!!   It can be a little overwhelming at the start of any module and I'm feeling like I'm still yet to get going but, when I look at my notes and how much I have learnt from reading the handbook, the Kortex, blogs, videos and others over the last few weeks I actually hope I'm setting myself up to be fully prepared for the rest of module 2!  Some helpful resources I've come across so far (which may help any future module two students): The Kortex book (obviously!) Finding the Audible book: Qualitative Research: A guide to Design and Implementation by Sharan B. Merriam and Elizabeth J. Tisde

Welcome back zoom

I felt surprisingly more relaxed in the welcome back zoom on Friday compared to the one I attended in Module One. Perhaps its because as I embark on Module two although the worry of the unknown still lies ahead I know I felt this way in Module One and still managed to get through.  Or perhaps it's because I now have a network within the BAPP community who I know are feeling or have felt the same way as I do. For those just starting Module One as well as reading the handbook over and over I would highly recommend: Reading as many blogs as you can - those in the same module and different modules to you. Join the BA PP Community Facebook page. If you're able to get a Whatsapp group going for Module One I would highly recommend it.  Its so reassuring to know others are going through the same emotions as you! Saying it again as it's SO important - read the handbook over and over.  At each reading your understanding of the module and what's expected will become clearer! So no
