Group Skype Session 6.10.15

HI everyone. 

I have just got off the phone from a Skype call and found it really interesting and wanted to share the discussion points and more importantly what stood out to me.

We had people from every module join in on the session which allowed people to look back at module 1, help with any questions they had and also look forward into module 3. This for me was interesting as it gave me an insight of what the inquiry process will become.

Adesola asked us all why we thought the CV was apart of the process in starting out the course in module 1. Lots of us were silent in our thoughts for a while, we all began to say the same thing; 'was it a way for people to get to know our backgrounds?' 'A way for future employers to look at what we have achieved?' Then as we got deeper into the discussion we realised that in a CV we are self evaluating. Looking back over your experiences and qualifications you are outlining to others what you have achieved. Though module 2 we have been asked to look back at our tasks we are set in module 1 as this can help relate to the questions being asked, therefore we are again self evaluating what we have already written. There is a pattern emerging and that's what Adesola was trying to make us understand. There is a reason why we were asked to perform the task of CV writing and this is all making sense as to how the modules will begin to link.

Another talking point was blog writing as a whole, why is it important? Like the CV example we are using the blogs to evaluate what we have previously written or spoken about. Always be interactive with others as this too can help. Being able to speak opening on our thoughts an ideas was so helpful to the group and particularly when talking about my inquiry. I have started to grasp an idea about funding with dance in schools, but as some of the group pointed out it may not be as easy to get into because it is a very vast area to focus on. It will keep me thinking of more options to go forward with as I develop further into Module 2.

Thank you again to everyone who attended and look forward to speaking and hearing more of your ideas soon.
