Everyone in BAPP Arts
There is some very good work going on – it is already late in October and the fifth week of the course this study period. I am aware many of you are very busy. We are asked to be doing more and more in our jobs – so time is precious. Please see questions and reminders for you below.
1. I need a student representative urgently – can anyone please volunteer for the year or until Jan/Feb? This looks very good on a CV and is very helpful to us in terms of feedback for the course. Just send me an email!!!
2. A reminder about BAPP Arts campus and online sessions are up on the schedule on MyLearning in the folder Schedule and on the calendar. See schedule again below in this email. Please RSVP.
If needed, I will do another 8pm session for Module 2 Part 5 – and will send a Doodlebug around for this as many are working at a distance this study period.
If needed the RoL group can get together via Skype or Google HangOut if that would be helpful.
Chrysallis London students – we will be doing another session for you with Jodie in a couple of weeks!!! Good luck on the performances.
The campus sessions are think tanks for the Parts of the Module so coincide with Parts 1,2, 3 for Module 1 Parts 4,5,6 for Module 2 and 7 – stages of the inquiry – for Module 3. Blogs go up after these weeks about the Parts of the module. Please everyone go to Adesola and my blog for information and leave comments/questions.
Adesola and I set up the schedule to allow as many to attend as possible with peers – we have a schedule that we are following for your coursework based on what your handbook says at the end of each group of tasks. The campus session are loosely based on the Parts of the module and the Skype sessions are open to all modules – we add to these as needed and with individual tutorials.
You can also get in touch with us for individual tutorials – contact information is in the programme handbook and online – this is self-managed learning so we relay on you to keep the schedule. I am sending this on the email you gave us – I am also sending it to your MDX email – you need to forward this if you have not already because this is how the university gets in touch with you. I will also put this on my blog.
3. To access the Reading Lists and the module handbooks – go to the UniHub http://unihub.mdx.ac.uk and then the MyUniHub tab and enter the virtual Learning system (VLE) called MyLearning your IT user name and password – you should be able to see your modules up there and still go to BA Professional Practice Arts (135W99X) SCROLL DOWN. The Reading lists have copyrighted information so are behind this ‘firewall’ - they should be on the module site somewhere or you can click through to them through the Library.
There is also a public access to the BAPP Arts Programme site which has the blog addresses in it http://mdx.mrooms.net/course/view.php?id=859 – you cannot get to the library or Reading List or the Module handbooks through this link – the university system has been having problems the last couple of weeks that people have shown me – but try this and then get in touch with Aimee Tallon a.tallon@mdx.ac.uk if you are having problems with the university system.
All the best everyone.
