Lesson 2 - About Me

(or task sheets 2-6) These task sheets looked at all my qualifications, experience, hobbies, strengths and weeknesses. Essentially the bulk of what I would put in my c.v. They showed me what I have to offer potential employers and made me look at what I should particularly work on.

Session 1

During the first session I downloaded The 2008-09 portfolio from the learning web learnt how to set up a blog and completed task sheet 1. Looking at the completed task sheet I would say my strongest skills are in dealing with people (including management, staff and customers) and most tasks involving numeracy. While I feel confident in my abilities in I.T. and communications there are a few areas I need to work on. Study skills are an area I should focus most of my attention as I find it difficult to keep track of deadlines.

lesson 4

This weeks lesson involved an interview with another student (Monika) regarding personal targets. This involved looking at our goals in education and possible career ambitions as well as goals in our personal lives. The exercise helped us focus on SMART targets. (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevent and Timed)

I have created a blog in order to keep track of all my work for the MPD module. It will contain a week by week analysis of my course work and all the sessions.
