Week 4

Week 4
This week I have concentrated on completing assignments which I have been given (M3, P1), and therefore I have used these assignments as a chance to work on the two Smart targets which I set myself to complete (read the brief and proof read my work). For example when I was working on my M3 report I implemented one of the targets which I created-proof reading my work. After completing a piece of criteria I would read through it to ensure that it doesn't contain any errors, I have found that this is very beneficial to me for two reasons. Firstly because it allows me to work towards completing one of the targets which I set myself to complete, and secondly because it drastically reduces the amount of proof reading once I have completed the assignment. I have identified that this was one of the main factors which previously stopped me from proof reading my work, after completing the assignment and putting a lot of effort into completing it  I would lack the motivation to spend extra time proof reading it. Therefore this technique which I have developed has helped me to combat this issue which I previously had, this has left me more motivated to proof read my work because I don't feel like I am wasting time. The other target which I set myself (reading the brief) is something which I have a had a limited amount of chances to improve, due to the fact that I have read the brief for one assignment. However during the time in which I was reading the brief I wrote down various pieces of information that were relevant to the task on a separate piece of paper, in order to refer to when I am completing the assignment. This has helped me when  I am working on assignment because if I forget what I need to do I can refer back to the piece of paper, this is  a very useful technique which I will continue to use.
