last lecture

At the end of our lecture series for our first term I wanted to reflect on what we've done so far. My lectures at foundation were very different to how they have been on my degree course so far. We were there to absorb information and learn but never put it into practice through any means, they were just notes for ourselves. This time around, the lecture are much more engaging and come with projects of their own. Arguably you could say I prefer how it was before as all I had to do was turn up so to speak. However I have really enjoyed the projects set and feel that they challenged me from a different angle. The focus was more on our research and how we justified decisions made. It was't about what looked pretty, it was looking for the deeper meaning. We pushed ourselves to learn about the context of the works instead of just face value. Further to this we have presented presentations which although terrify me every time are worthwhile. The experience will be helpful for pitching within a future career within graphics.
