I received my Tutor Feedback on Assignment one last night. It came in two parts; an annotated version of my work (here) which made it much easier to relate the notes to my own work, and a general comments feedback form (here) which contained more general comments.
I am arranging a convenient time/date to have a phone tutorial with my Tutor to discuss everything in more detail. Meantime, I am going to work on the research suggested by my tutor – namely:
- J.P. Sartre – “existence precedes essence” – Existentialism in general
- Pooke, Grant and Newall, Diana. (2008), Art History: the basics, London: Routledge
- Howells, R. & Negreiros, J. (2012), Visual Culture. 2nd Edition, Cambridge: Polity
I plan to re-construct my essay based on my research, the feedback in my Tutor notes and the tutorial over the phone. Once it is done, I will upload it in a separate post. Areas that need work are:
- Develop a single point perspective and why – I need to ask my Tutor to explain this more fully during the Tutorial.
- Defining terms at the start of a paper
- Referencing (in my own opinion) – should I have larger bibliographies for assignments? Am I referencing enough?
I was delighted to read that I have made a strong start to the unit. I am really enjoying this course and the different depths and categories of research that it brings me to; philosophy might be new favourite subject!
Overall, I am looking forward to the tutorial and have already started Part 2.
