Apprehensive about starting

Thoughts & Ideas

Considering I haven’t studied since 2015 – which for some probably doesn’t seem like a long time at all – knowing where to start with this course is very difficult, despite reading the short course ‘Introduction To Higher Education’ (OCA, 2013).

Sitting back and thinking about it, the issue seems to be that there is so much information to take on, that my brain has just frozen. Thankfully a fellow student – who is also on the “Expressing Your Vision” course and has already completed multiple assignments – gave me some good advice via the PHEYV email thread and reassured me that there would be someone to help if I got stuck.

Think my first course of action will be breaking the assignments down to it’s basics and approach each step one at a time.

Mind map first, research, then shoot and reflect, taking it back to my college days.

Let’s hope that calms my brain down a little bit after feeling a little overwhelmed!
