PPRD PowerPoint Questions

(Personal Planning, Reflection and Development) This part of the session was taken by Sarah and a PowerPoint presentation was shown to us including courses requirements and regulation. We then had another presentation to allow us to reflect on our work. The questions that were included are answered below:

How is teaching different from learning? Well teaching, you already know the information and you are sharing your knowledge with people who do not know, and learning is widening your knowledge on a subject or learning how to do certain things.

How do they fit together- why does one rely on the other? Teaching and learning fit together because to teach you have to learn and to learn you have to be taught!

Why do you want to learn? I personally want to learn to widen my knowledge and enhance my education of Fashion so that I have a stronger chance of getting a job within the fashion industry. I do not just want a job, I want a career, which I can enjoy and perform at my highest potential with. I also like to learn in the hope I can help others in the future. Also, I am going to make the most of life and grab every opportunity that comes my way, thinking of the consequences’ later…in this case about £20,000 worth of debt!

How can you make the best of your University learning experience? As mentioned above I can and will grab every opportunity that comes my way to ensure I get the most out of my University experience. Also I should learn not to panic and enjoy the work as much as I enjoy the company of everyone around me! I will try and keep up with the work load given to us to prevent mistakes or rushing and I will complete everything I do to the best of my ability, not being scared to ask questions and watch EVERYTHING to learn! OH also, I shall sit next to Tiffany in every I.T based session so I can actually learn how to conquer this damn I.T!!!! J

Teaching= Inspiration, acquire the facts, inform research, feedback, assess your performance.
Learning= Self motivation, thinking for yourself, apply knowledge, read around topic, use internet, discuss with peers/tutors, ask questions make links.


We then we asked to list the 5 most successful people we know or know of….I found this hard and made me realize who is successful as I have never stopped to think about this before.

***Rank in order of importance***
What did they do?
What did they overcome?
What skills did they learn/have?
What qualities did they learn/have?
What effect did/do they have on people?

1) David Sparkes- This is somebody who is like a brother to me, he is 23 years old and he helps run a summer school for local schools in Plymouth. David Sparkes has overcome leukemia twice within his life and now lives his life to the full with a successful life. He has the skills to work with young people and aspire and motivate them to do well and have fun, he is such a lovely person and he affects people in such a good way to live their life to the full and just always have fun and most importantly…do everything you want to do in life!
2) My sister Lisa- Lisa is now a research assistant for dementia within St Ann’s. She worked really hard through a three year degree at Cardiff University in psychology and learnt all the technicalities of this degree. Lisa has the qualities and skills to complete her job to a high standard and she works to help people and enhance their quality of life.
