Task 1 - Skills Audit

Skills Audit

When beginning the course I completed a check list (skills audit) in order to see what I already know and vise versa what I don't know.

I have noticed some weaknesses in my list ( the box's I ticked 'no' too, showing I wasn't aware or couldn't do these things). This clearly highlights my areas of potential problem. I made me feel much more confident though seeing that the majority of questions I felt I was able to say 'yes' too. This was much more reassuring and made me want to work hard to resolve my few weakness's so that I was then able to tick yes to all of them. felt more confident when seeing this list as the majority of the questions I was able to do, this made me feel reassured and less worried about my weaknesses. 

One question from the skills audit, 'do you currently have a blog?' I am now already able to re-tick this because i was needed to create one in order to complete my coursework. I have now reduced my list of problems. A method i am going to use is watching youtube clips for educating myself in my various weaknesses. These include:

- How to bluetooth files 

- How to use photoshop 

- How to use InDesign



I am planning to watch varying videos so i get a clear insight into these topics and take notes. This will enable me to properly learn each of the techniques. Following onto this i will practice doing so at home so i am able to confidently use them in class. 

Next time i am going to learn how to use blogger so i am familiar with the features.
