Post professional practice

This year there was a lot of good and bad. But it was a learning experience for me, the good thing i suppose was that i learnt a lot about my individuality and that i prefer to work that way and not rely on others so much. I also learnt a lot through my work, and through my course tutors. I wish there was more practical, and i was informed this before taking part in the bachelors degree. However when you're on the course you do feel that you need the practical just as much as the theory for brain stimulus reasons. I did however enjoy moments through out my year, like i said some were good and some were bad, all in all, it is a positive outcome. I need to find out my final grades and check for next years classes as soon as possible and work even harder next year!

Completion

Just finishing my assignment to be handed in tomorrow, leaves me hardly anytime to prepare for our presentation for tomorrow which is a shame, i thought at least professional practice and technology project would hand separate hand in dates, rather than both falling on the same day and being two different subjects. There was a lot of knowledge that came from learning about professional practices revolving around the automotive industry, that i never knew about. I hope my assignment gets me a good mark with all the hard work i put into it :) haha

Todays Pechakutcha - Unattended

Could not attend today because of the work load i have on my shoulders at this current time, with 3 assessments coming up and other stuff in my life just makes things to damn busy, and would of liked to have gone today but am really stuck into my assignments. With professional practice due on the 14th, we also have technology project due a week earlier along with a presentation. There is a lot to do with so little time, with both courses back to back.

Surgery

This week i could not attend as i just had dental surgery and i was told to relax for about a week, i has two wisdoms removed. I was informed that i didn't miss much, and to carry on with my project and professional practice studies.

Panel Discussion

Last week we had a panel discussion for around an hour and a half talking about our observation at our organization that we had recently visited. Our workshop we visited was German Automotive in Glenfield on the North Shore. They were very polite and professional. Our panel discussion talked about their customer service, health and safety, ethical issues and waste management. We thoroughly spent time listening to everyone findings. It was a bit heated over the Treaty of Waitangi however people had many views unrelated to the Automotive trade. This was a bit of a concern because people who talked about the Treaty as if they knew much about it probably knew very little at all about anything at all. It still however sparked a debate which was interesting.

Much better this week

Meet up with Kevin and worked on our assignments together, i have enjoyed going to classes, however some weeks are a bit slow and with nothing to do. Its good that i can catch up with my project buddies as well so we can work on our project at the same time. All is good, and i hope to finish this year positively.

Not feeling well

Today i was sick and away from the class, i decided to stay home and relax and do some work on my assignment as i don't want to leave it to the last minute. Looking forward to catching up with my group next week.
