ScreenR and Reflection of Creative Practice

As I mentioned in a previous post we had to write an essay about the thinking techniques we looked at in semester one. I found the essay a slightly hard experience as to what to write and how to write it to a university standard, however as my first academy essay, I am quite proud that I completed it. As well as this we also had to create a ScreenR, which is a website that allows you to talk into a microphone whilst recording what's happening on your screen. The ScreenR looked at what reflection is and why its important. We created a Prezi to show on the screen and spoke over it as the Prezi went through. I liked this as a way of presenting information, however I wasn't too kind on speaking into a mic as I hate my voice, but anyway here is my ScreenR for you to view:

Collective Intelligence Feedback

For my first uni assignment, the feedback was quite positive. I received a good mark for my first attempt at a wiki. The comments noted that links to other resources would have made the information stand out more and made it more understandable in the sense that it would have been put into context. This is something I can work on in future assignments, by branching out and finding other resources, rather than just stick to the specific text. The feedback comments also noted that the information is a little repetitive, this just means that I'll need to make sure to proofread my work before submission. There is also a note that while there are links placed in the threads, there are no comments about these links and what they mean in relation to the book. From this, if i am asked to create another wiki, I at least know what will be expected of me, to analyse the content, not just summarise and find out other peoples views on such a subject to make the information more diverse and less one sided. However this being my first uni assignment I am happy with my overall effort and achievement.
