Self assessment

Am I on track with the current work?

I am not on track at this moment of time as I did not progress with my work through the Easter holidays and have fallen behind therefore I am not upto speed with the plan presented on my EILP. To solve this problem and catch up with my work I will work on my project at home or I will come into college on self directed study days to progress with my work until I am upto speed and on target with my goals. My current goals that i need to catch up with are mostly research but also to start modelling so I could progress with my research at home and modelling within the college to ensure I stay on track, research being a vital part of the project I need to have it completed by the dates I have set for myself.

Do I think I will meet the designated deadline?

I am aware of my progress at the moment and also aware it is slow, I still have 7 weeks on this project and I believe if I put in the hours I will be able to get on track in no time, giving me a large space of time to fully complete my project. I think splitting my work into two parts will help me progress faster, adding to my research at home and working on my 3D modelling in college, this will make it easier as I will only have concentrate on one aspect of my project in college. I work at the same level at home as i do in college so there is no change in where I work apart from there isn't a time at home that I have to stop working, I can work to whichever time i choose.

Do I think my work is of a good standard?

My work at the moment is not on target but I am quite happy with the standard of work I am achieving, for the goals that I have completed so far I think there is a good amount of work and is presented in a good standard. I see no problem with the standard of my work apart from minor details that may have to be corrected, when i progress with my work and get upto speed I will be satisfied if my work stays at the same standard or improves in anyway I will be happy with my work therefore overall the standard is good I just need to go over it and perfect any small details and also make sure when I catch up the work is of the same standard and not rushed.

How can I improve my time keeping?

My time keeping skills over the holidays have not been very good as I have fallen behind due to not adding to my work over Easter. To improve I will dedicate a few hours a night to work, as I have split my work into two sections now as I explained earlier, I will be working on research at home and modelling in college and I will use 3 hours or more at home to progress with my research. As there is a large amount of work to complete on both research and modelling I will use my three self directed study days to complete research and my two days of being in college to model, this will make things easier so I can concentrate on one subject in the different habitats helping me progress faster.
