As I continue to explore how to improve my research and make the most of the final couple months left, I’m reminded of Richard’s advice: Take ownership of your research. This master’s program is all about reflecting on the why and so, I need to really embrace their principles and ask me those hard questions.
Here’s what I need to focus on:
1. Revisiting and Improving My Blog:
I need to re-read my blog and refine it to make it more accessible and easier to navigate. It should clearly reflect my iterations, research, and personal analysis. An introduction is essential to guide readers on what they’ll find in this space. I also need to incorporate presentations, images, and explanations to enrich the content. Elizabeth recommened to print all blog posts and analyze them related to the Learning Outcomes.
2. New Interventions:
I need to identify gaps in my research and use the remaining time to implement small interventions that address them. I have a few ideas in mind and might collaborate with Neelabh from the master’s program. With three weeks left, I’ll need to secure materials and space to make this happen.
3. Final Conversations with Stakeholders:
I’ve been trying to schedule conversations with the three stakeholders I mentioned earlier, but it’s been challenging to align schedules. I need to ensure these conversations happen soon, and I’ve sent emails today to reconnect.
4. Thinking Ahead to the Festival:
What do I want from this festival? It should become a space for people to interact with me, possibly leading to future collaborations. I also see it as an opportunity to find a job aligned with my interests, in spaces like Futuress.
Here we go!
