Time pressures are paradoxical.
Good course
I liked this- whilst it did not offer many solutions, it certainly pushed me to reflect and see the positive innovations I have made.
Problem sharing can result in solving.
Practical hints and tips for work life balance would have been really appreciated as the outcome for this scenario rather than it's a constraint and you can't change it! Felt blame culturish on poor Alicja.
As a craft person who works with hand held things I don't fine this very useful.
I would not like to leave feedback at this time thank you very much indeed.
Good to break down and identify problems so you can work on improvements
Asking learners to keep a diary of their work process and feelings as a new course develops would be an interesting viewpoint for the tutor.
Good
Good module
good, and straight forward
Good to review how to manage workload.
This module encouraged me to take a look at my own working practice and hopefully I will develop some improved systems and methodologies as a result.
Found this really useful as really reflects on what is a problem and what is a constraint and the problems we put on ourselves and the situation
