I Will Study Harder This Semester

On Monday we start the next semester. I am half way through my degree! it's scary! But my feedback on last semester was really good. It makes me want to work harder still.

I hated doing my uni degree. For all the money I spent on it, I hardly learnt a thing I could transfer/take with me to the working world. Being dyslexic doesn't help either as you are already behind the 8 ball. Alas good luck to you!

@BlodynHaf yeah it's crap. I was allowed an extra hour for exams. It is completely useless. They actually need an alternative form of assessment altogether.

@Laughman I think that in Art we are lucky. We don't get exams. But the assessment of our work is really thorough. We have to show our ceramics and jewellery and that we have learnt the skills. And our sketch books and journals. We must have evidence of research, our design process and evaluation of our own work. And we have essays on contextual studies.

@BlodynHaf hmm good luck with that. I'm not creative with my hands so if you can get good scores by making stuff, then well done to you. Nice work :)

I finished one graduate degree.
It is always a commitment albeit a fun one once you know how to play the game!

@BlodynHaf Hopefully the teacher is qualified to assess the excellence of the resulting work without the simplistic marks of written tests!

@Pfuzylogic I think so plus the added complication that I do all my work in Welsh which my teacher doesn't speak. But since 2017 we have the right to do that.

@BlodynHaf
I am prejudiced.
I love art.

Great motivation
BlodynHaf · 22-25, F
Do you live in Chicago?
BearDownChicago · 41-45, M
@BlodynHaf grew up there but near San Francisco now

@BearDownChicago California! I love the song Hotel California by the Eagles and Songs from The West Coast by Sir Elton John.
