This morning we had a workshop on creating the final concept and writing a rationale for this.
I went into this session thinking that i wanted to create a calendar on the basis of time management/workloads. This is what i started off with, but as i was going the process, i realised that this was quite a popular outcome, but i liked the idea of time management and workload, so i re thought my idea.
I thought back to the workshop we had with Fred on time management and at the beginning he started by outlining how a day can go if things aren't planned out right. How just because you are in college all day doesn't mean you are doing a full days of work.
This is basically working on the idea of getting into a routine.
Rationales:
What problem have you identified?
The workload of the course is a lot, juggling between modules means you need to plan time right. Time management.
Why is it a problem?
Have to switch between briefs can get confusing
Wasting time each day by not knowing what to do
Make sure work is done and in on time
Planning means no rushed work, high quality
Balanced social and uni life
What do you intend to do about it?
Put something in place to help plan time
Inform the kind of workload and what will receive
Advise on a good routine
Calendar/to do list
Generalise a day in LCA
What do you hope to achieve by doing this?
In doing this i aim to advise new students on how to manage there time in a way that they have a balanced social and uni life and get all work done.
What do you already know?
There is a lot of work
No planning, bad day - no work done
A general outline of a day in LCA
Need a balance - can't do work all day and all night
What do you need to find out about the problem?
other peoples routine - 2nd/3rd years
Personal experiences of this
How to plan a day - is there a specific amount of time to work?
Does planning actually help?
How course changes over years
More detailed rationale to my concept:
What problem have you identified?
The high workload of the course can prove hard to organise your time spent on briefs and in uni. Managing your social lie and uni life is key, A routine is must.
What is the problem?
wasting time on not knowing what to do
work may not get done
too much social life - attendance go down/poor work
rushed work
many briefs to work on at same time
What do you intend to do about it?
Compare the difference between a good planned routine and having no plan/routine to a day at LCA. This will be presented through infographic/ illustrated poster. In the style of 'A day in the life...'
What do you hope to achieve by doing this?
Advise on how a good routine can provide a more structured day in which you produce a lot of work/work towards a brief. Illustrate how easy time can be wasted.
