My first task was to produce a learning log of my life – showing where I have been, what I have learnt and what experiences I have gained. I approached this task in an abstract way and wondered if I could produce something fun and humorous that still fell within the task guidelines.
On reflection of the task I felt, possibly incorrectly, that this task was designed for first year students with no university experience. As a mature student that has already experienced a university education I felt that my time would have been better served working on a task more relevant to the course I had selected (web development). It was this feeling that led me to approach the task in the abstract way that I have, hopefully entertaining the reader along the way. Personally I do not feel that this task worked for me but I understand the necessity for it within the class and feel that a huge percentage of the class would have gained whilst only a small amount would have found it unbeneficial.
