This is my L2L blog so I'm not supposed to confuse it with a load of Core Visual studies stuff....I'm supposed to make 2 entries or more per week on L2L related subjects/teachings.
So what is L2L all about so far? It means learning to learn and we are divided into 3 groups for it every Monday, there is a list of aims which I will include at the end of this personal stuff. We have John Langan which is great as he is welcoming, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, caring, experienced and funny just the kind of person you want to be learning from really in my opinion. I love this course already as it is so challenging and interesting. I don't want to get too obsessed with all the information as I'm finding myself thinking about it all the time at the moment so I'll be looking to reach balance with it too.
We are the lovely
group!
There is a reading list; but I can't find it so I will ask about this.
Usually we will get an essay for homework to be in the following week. Check moodle everyday if possible for updates to this and any of the modules that I'm signed up to.
This week we have to research Mind Mapping...
We had a great discussion in our group about 'what is art?' and presented it in a mind map format, it looked a bit all over the place so one of the things is to try to get the mind maps to look visually pleasing, showing connections, direction etc, following a path.
My next blog entry will be on Mind Maps and I have been using my A3 sketchbook (a present from my brother) to do loads of sketches so I hope it works out!
