Schedule

Hey everyone! Hope you are all getting on ok. 

I had a really great talk with Adesola on Friday morning. It has really helped me straighten out a few thoughts in my head. I feel confident with the themes I have discovered and feel excited to delve deeper in to them! It has also allowed me to create a plan for the next few weeks. Adesola reminded me that I need to stick to a tight scedule now to allow myself valuable time to write up the work. 

So after our chat, I found myself sitting there for a good while making tonnes of notes!! This allowed me to look back at the scribbled notes I had written during our conversation and think a little more about what was said. I could then expand on certain areas and organise it all, which therefore made it a lot clearer in my head. 

Scedule- Friday Oct 31st- Nov 9th
Literature- Although I have a fair amount of literature relevant to my themes, I have discovered deeper lines and so feel I need to find some more literature that applies. (Already finding some interesting pieces)
Organise- I will then print out all of my information and start sectioning it off in to my themes. So for example, give each theme a colour, look at the literature and highlight the relevant parts in this colour. I will then do the same with the data I have collected from people. 
THEME- WHAT IM EXPLORING IN THEME- WHAT LITERATURE APPLIES TO IT- WHAT DATA APPLIES TO IT 

Therefore all the ingredients are getting mixed together! :) 

THEN....

Draft my Analysis the week starting November 10th!!

Once I have all my themes organised and sectioned out in to their colours, I can start drafting my analysis. 
This is the heart of everyhing, it's what it's all about. I will start in the middle and then write outwards from there. Once I have that as my core, I will then be able to write the rest of my piece e.g I will know what I'm summarising in my introduction. I also feel that the analysis will take the most time to write so it's always good to start with the hard bit first!

I will keep you all updated with how it's going! :)

  1. Sounds like you're super organised Mel! I think I need some tips from you - the colour coding sounds really good. Maybe you could Facebook message me with more info on this (themes and colour coding) - I think this would really help me. Thanks Mel xx
