Skype Session 08/02/19

-
Hello!
On Friday I attended the 5pm Module 2 based Skype call with Adesola and thought I would share a key point, which I have really benefited from, for anyone that was unable to attend.
Recently I have been brainstorming some ideas for my inquiry but have not managed to find something that I am really happy with. Adesola shared a great tip with us...to read through our work from Module 1 (especially the diagram) to find an area within it that you would like to research further and gain a better understanding on. This exercise has really helped me to get closer to my inquiry title and would highly recommend others doing this if they are feeling a little stuck too.
Soon I hope to share more about my inquiry title.

Beginning Module 3

Hello! I hope you all had a lovely summer. I can't believe I am going into my final Module in BAPP but I am ready to get stuck into my inquiry research this week. It was really useful to receive my feedback from Helen about how I can be improving my work going forward. I wanted to share my main aim this term: Trying to work on adding more depth and discussion in my literature reviews by relating quotes and showing their relevance to map my field of inquiry. Best Wishes, Becky

Module 3 Focus Skype Discussion 01.10.19

Hello! I wanted to write a little bit about the Module 3 Focus Skype Discussion for those that were unable to attend. One concept that we discussed was Triangulation. This is something that has been a bit of a grey area for me until now. From discussing Triangulation and unpicking the definition I feel I have a better understanding and really want to apply it to my inquiry data collection and analysis process. After looking up definitions of triangulation I have summarised it to this: 'Application and combination of several research methods in the study of an inquiry'. Adesola also discussed a great analogy which really helped me to understand even further... If you were to push a square, it will change shape. However, triangles are strong structures. Using three sides (e.g. using three research methods rather than one) then this provides strength. Rather than just using a 1:1 comparison, we can see three sides and analyse in greater depth. I really hope this helps ...

Hello! I thought I'd share an update on where I am at with Module 2. My chosen inquiry title is 'How nutrition impacts a dancer's performance'. I understand that this title is quite broad for now and that has been worrying me over the past few weeks. I spoke to my tutor about this and she has reminded me that we are going through a journey and that you will discover and find out more along the way which may lead your title to change slightly, maybe making it more specific. For now I am working on my literature review and opening of my essay. I'd be interested to hear where everyone else is at with their work and how their ideas are coming along? Becky x
