Thoughts on Critical review so far

Having been immersed in my workplacement over christmas- performing in 'Cinderella' at Chickenshed- and moving back to south london i am now in the process of drafting my critical review. So far im almost half the way through and am starting to get into the rythm of it. Im finding that what is working for me is to get any initial thoughts out of my head and straight on to the page- regardless of structure or coherence! and then going back to review and re structure the main body of what i have written. Having completed my actual project before christmas im finding that i have so many ideas, thought s and finidings in my head its hard to filter them out.

However pereverance is the key and i am now conentrating on one step at a time: the critical review and appendices- then the artefact- then the presentation.  I find that if i try to go between all three at once my mind cant seem to cope!

While drafting my critical review i have inearthed some really interesting peices of literature- one if them beinf: teaching and learning in education by huddleston and unwin 2006- link below:

if any one fancies a read and will let me know their thoughts please do!

As i said previously the critical review is my main focus at the moment- step by step giving myself constant feedback as well as using feedback structures that my tutors have given me..

and so to continue....!
