1. Please comment on your

progress. What targets have you
met? Is there anything that is
making it difficult for you to
achieve your targets or affecting
your progress?

I like the environment I am learning in as it feels comfortable

and supported as I can work at my own pace. I feel that I for
got things quite easily so therefore I have a note pad and ca
n watch the video tutorials if I need to refresh on a certain to
pic. Youtube is also another way of helping me to refresh. M
y Weebly blog is also helpful to look through, tools that I hav
e learnt.

2. What do you still need to do?

(Include items that you have not
completed and are still relevant.)

I need to keep practicing the tools I have learned: E.g asking

for help and not panicking. I feel I have realized I am more su
pported than I thought I was and I have more confidence to
ask for help. I forgot I am part of a team and we support eac
h other. I need to work on other briefs for other people as I h
ave found it easier when I am the one making the design de
cision on my own work.

3. Do you need more support or

more challenge?

It helps to be able to use Skype at home, have good contact

with the tutors and they are very supportive and relaxed. I w
ould like to work more on layouts and printing documents. T
his would help me build my confidence further.
