By combining my own personal experience and research in my previous studies I was able to gain a deep understanding and clarity of the core and aims of my project, and I was also able to make it clear to everyone in the group study through a number of descriptive presentations that were communicated over and over again.
In the last week I carried out my exchange with the ballet dancers and I found that because I had not systematically organised all the information about my research, it made it difficult for the ballet dancers to understand the core of the project well in a 45 minute time slot, which affected their willingness to do further work with me and do.
So here’s what I’m going to continue to do this week:
- Read more literature and look for evidence in it to support my argument
- Create mind maps to rationalise the logic and prepare for presentations to others
- Look for reasons to persuade stakeholders from their point of view.
- Think of more interesting interventions
- Adjusting the timetable according to the current state of progress
Here is the document I am reading this week:

The above is an attempt to build all the knowledge and evidence I have learnt into a mind map to make it more systematic and to clarify the definitions of all the descriptive words which can help all those who see the project to understand it clearly.
The above is a timeline of the projects I’ve done in the early days, but I need to update my time over the next week.
