AnonyMouse_6361 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Oh my word I have nearly 1300 word in my study task, were did they come from? I feel really pleased but I am starting to run out of words athough i can go to 2200 words if needed. I still need to connect skinners operate condtioning to moral development and find info on Bandura social learning theory then a small section on Automoic nerviious system then a conclusion. AGGGHHH how I am going to fit all that in? EEEKK the cat (yet another old yorkshire saying I belive) Oh and a diagrame of how it all fits with behaviour. I am over the moon!!!! Then I will have a little rest before I start to do the Core skills for Fd portfolio, seen paper test sheet to write up and if I have time do a little bit on PDM1 oh what a fun christmas I will be having.

Guest Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Thanks for sharing Beth, and here's me worried about getting all the handprint poems done by Friday. Certainly puts my workload into perspective. But I do guess you are really enjoying your studies. Peggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Hi Beth, Know what you mean, I've got 2248 words and 2200 my absoult max and can't work out where to cut. I've dropped ands, its, a, an etc also - / _ ' " and still can't make it less. Little pointer if you don't know already, when you write a sentence a hyphen counts as a word, and if you write a word followed by a comma, the gap after the comma and b4 the next word also counts a s a word eg the cat sat on, the mat 6 words The cat sat on,the mat 5 words God I must be desperate Net xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_4544 Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 (edited) My word count doesn't do that? You had me worried! Edited December 9, 2006 by Marion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Don't think mine does either Marion! The only thing we have been told to do is not write things like 'I' or 'My' in anything except boring reflective journals. I've done both the presentations now for my assessment and this weekend I am going to concentrate on those journals and on my essay for the assessment which thankfully is only 1000 words, but out of that I have to evaluate policies and procedures and outside agencies. No allowances for going over so will be ripping my hair out tomorrow trying to fit it all in! Just got the exam to stress about in January (on the 2nd, can you believe it!) and that is the first module out of the way! Can't believe how fast its gone....

Guest Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Hi all regarding presentations :rolleyes: i have just done my very first presentation (started FDEY in October this year, ) Although we passed - had to work in small groups (3 in my group)- we were told that we should of :- introduced ourselves, even though everyone in the room knew who we were! introduced the topic, whoops nerves got the better of us and we just went for it and asked at the end if anyone had any questions .... might be 'food for thought' if you are doing first time presentations, they seem really obvious things, but easily overlooked.... well just got to finish 1000 word health promotion then can relax over Christmas.... i've even done all my planning etc for new term after all ..tis the season to be jolly ...got to leave some spare time to eat, drink and be merry .... very merry..... :wacko: Jo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Thanks Jo, I would of forgotton that, I am already worried sick about standing in front of 14 students! (my individual presentation is january 9th!!) Give me a room full of 2-3year olds any day, adults are too scarey!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Hi Shirel I too was really worried, i know it doesn't help when people say 'oh you will be fine' but honestly it didn't seem too bad once i got going. We used powerpoint during our presentation and all did our own bit, the time seemed to fly, and it was over before we knew it. All i kept telling myself was that everyone in the room was feeling the same way as me, (...even that one person who always seems to know everything, always has an opinion, always gets everything right... you know the type.... ) Try not to worry, i know its easier said then done Jo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
