Learning Diary Entry 6.

Learning Diary Entry 6.

Throughout the duration of this module I have learnt so much about research practice and all the considerations behind constructing a research project.
I have learnt how to create:

• Focus Groups
• Perceptual mapping
• Questionnaires/ Surveys
• Constructive Interview Questions
• Case Studies
• Detailed observation
• A project Proposal.

Looking back to when this module first commenced I realise how much I have progressed through learning and how to focus my ideas more constructively and realistically rather than producing project questions that would not be able to give me an accurate, meaningful and worthy answer.

I have worked intensely to produce what I feel will be an interesting and beneficial topic of research towards my future career and will help the rest of society to perhaps look at the performing industry in a different light and perhaps engage more frequently within it.

Not only has the module given me thorough insight towards my education and developed my qualification but it has also made me develop and discover new ambitions towards my future prospects. Such as:

1. What is expected from me in performing arts practice
2. What rights I have through my teachings
3. The main aims and employment I am striving for in the future. I now know that I want to focus my skills of teaching towards the mature student(18+).

All of these conclusions I have drawn through research elements.
I can honestly state that this module has been massively beneficial towards my education and will hopefully contribute to achieving a happy and fulfilled career.
