In this lesson, we have been discussing what we should be doing over the summer, but also how we should go about meeting with our Supervisor

Over the summer I need to do

  • Research project 
  • Do some creative research - museums/libarys
  • always think about the reliability of the sources I am using 
  • Get ready for my project to be approved for September
Also we were discussing about the CRF Form and what I need to include on page 5
  • Make a list of questions for what I will ask my supervisor 
  • Input mind-map into the box 
Then finally we spoke about how to go about the meeting with our Supervisor (Mrs Atkins)
  • Improving the project - make it sound and strong - fitting the criteria
  • Record each meeting - date it 
  • Email the CRF to supervisor before meeting 
  • Update the CRF after the meeting - write in detail
  • Do a blog entry after each meeting 
  • I must have a supervisor meeting before I break up for Summer
