Self reflective review

In my opinion I think I’m pretty confident when it comes to media studies from using the camera to writing evaluations about myself and my work.  

On the other hand, sometimes I feel a bit self conscience when it comes to explaining my opinions and ideas about certain pieces of work; for example when I have to give feedback on peers work, I feel like lecturers think I’m not as sharp as the other students because I keep quiet in class discussions – but in fact I like to keep my opinions to myself as I feel like a learn more when doing that and I don’t like people to gain from my ideas – that may make me sound a bit mental but its true.

I don’t feel like I have any threats…maybe myself because I have quite a stubborn personality and do not like to share my ideas with the class – only because I don’t want others to copy my ideas in their own work. This may portray me as a shy person but maybe I’ll just have to start sharing my ideas/opinions for a while, I don’t know?

I don’t really know what write for opportunities because I don’t know how to elaborate on the word. Am I meant to write about what opportunities I’m meant to make for myself from this course or is it the opportunities that follow from this course such as; career aspects and university placements?  So I’m going to expand on both theories.

1-      I’m going to learn a great deal about what I need to know about the industry I’m aiming to work in. which will help me in my career and life, also I’ll gain a variety of skills which will open more opportunities for me and all of the new qualifications I’ll gain will obviously make my CV look more appealing to employers.

2-      From the point of later education and careers wise – this course can help me with work experience which will help secure a job and get into the industry. I can gain ucafs points to get into university.

Either way I come across a great deal of opportunities from this course – its up to me if I take them or not!

So to some up my review, I think I’m fairly confident when it comes to this course and what iv completed so far and I’m only going to continue to gain more and more from it. So far I’m quite smug about myself and how I’m doing on the course (even though my first project didn’t live up to my expectations and has made me look like an underachiever). But I plan to dramatically contrast that in my next project.

By the way I wasn’t here when this task was set.
