SeLf eVaLuATiOn..

Attainment..2

I think I have understood most of the content taught so far. I think however I could read over my notes and handouts to get a better understanding of the topics dicussed. And alossocontribute more in class.

Effort...2

I feel i do put alot of effort into my work this year, especially media.

Punctuality...1

I am always on time to lesons. :)

Submission & quality of homework...2

I have failed to hand in 2 piecs of work this year, however I do make sure that it is all done even if it is late..

Ability to work independently...2

I feel as though my independant work has shown alot more this year, however I prefer working in a group as it is muc hmore motivating.

Quality of writing... 2

I do try to express my writting, however this isnt always how it seems.

Organisation of media folder...1

I would give myself a 1. this is because i keep two media books (one for mr munro and another for mr bush), not folders and i stick my work in. this is so that i do not lose any handout. it is also a good idea because it's easier to revise from.

Oral contributions in class... 2

I think i do contribute in class, more so than i did last year however i think i could contribute more often and frequant.
