& A GREAT MARK TO BOOT!

I was so pleased when the marks were announced that I managed to get a great mark. I am a very happy bunny about that.

And ever since I have been chugging away at the Independent Learning Module. Having read in the plone guide that each module is allocated 300 hours study time, I gulped... a lot... then set about fitting more study into my schedule. I have certainly managed to get on top of this one a lot sooner than before and am doing my reading fairly consistently in the background, in the library, on trains, in waiting rooms and over coffee, as well as at home. I feel better informed on this one although I keep finding more to read as my topic, "Learning to Learn" has had so much written about it with 3 projects' research papers that I have found so far. All have a slightly different focus - the 5rs, assessment for learning and a holistic/constructivist approach - and I will be interested to see which theories I feel I can apply within the LRC. Not forgetting the other literature I have that is library specific....

I just need to keep on top of this now and prepare myself for the overlap with LITWS begins... in the middle of March... Crikey - I better get more of this ILM written up quick smart!
