Of the three classes that I’m taking this semester, only one has had an official assignment due so far because of Covid19. There was another informal assignment but it’s a ‘pass necessary’ assessment and so doesn’t actually produce a grade and didn’t exactly have a lot of effort put into it because of this.

I had a presentation due yesterday and it was a little weird because it was done via Zoom and there was no actual rubric given to us and so each group had gone in a slightly different direction to each other which had me and my partner a bit worried. I think we did well but can’t be sure for certain because we were really just winging it. This particular class has been the most frustrating because it seems to not have a set direction, everything being up in the air. I can safely say that I’ll be glad when it’s over. I just need to pass at this point, although I of course don’t want to bring down my partner either, I’m still planning on doing my best; I’m just not holding my breath on being told my best is what they want.

The next two real assignments due are an art reflection and a more detailed look at our workshop plan. I also have a draft due but it’s not a markable assessment task, just one that I need to submit for a pass mark for the unit.

One class is based on my art, one based on my understanding of my art and the last based on academic skills. I have eight assessment tasks all up but I don’t know what two of them are going to be because of the changes to learning.

We’re in the mid-semester break now, and though no assessments are allowed to be due in the break, I have to work on the ones that will be due straight afterwards.

1.3/8 Assessment Tasks Completed

I am on my way to graduating at the end of the year and I am doing my best not to let Covid19 stop it. I have one year left and hopefully by July, I will only have half a year. I don’t expect to come out with the GPA that I want, but I’ve come to realise, in recent months, that I am not a failure. I might get low scores every now and then but for the most part, I am successful. I don’t have the structure that I did in the previous semesters but I am still trying to maintain my focus as well as I can despite it feeling like a really long holiday!
