A note on Drafts...

As drafts of your work come in now; I am re-posting this blog post from last term for students on Module One who would not have seen it and as a reminder for those of you on Module Two and Three...


Drafts are intended to initiate a feedback dialogue (in person, skype, via email) with your supervisor, they are not usefully used to ask if things are 'right' or sent with an expectation of receiving corrections, by way of a pre-marking opportunity.

 Please do receive feedback as an extended discussion of your work. 

Often feedback contains prompts for further reading, suggested texts/practitioners to look at, comments regarding the level of critical thinking/analysis in your writing over overly descriptive personal narrative approaches etc.. Feedback comments are not telling you to 'correct' something and re-submit, but more trying to help you to move your thinking and writing on as we see the process of your work developmentally.

 With this in mind, when you have received feedback on a draft of work, please take time to read and consider comments made, come back to your supervisor asking to extend the conversation, arrange a skype is you have further thoughts and questions as a result of the feedback, but please try not to send a 2nd draft asking if the work is now correct.

 At MA level we put our trust in you as professional people and see our role as supervisors as guding you, being a critical friend, promting, pushing your thoughts, challenging sometimes in order for you to develop further. We are not testing you getting things 'right' we are interested in your engagement and curiosity about your own work.

    Thank you for this. I realise I am continually looking for validation, needing to know if I am doing things 'right'. Perhaps the most important thing I can learn from this process is to trust myself more, listen to feedback, evaluate it, reflect and question it and use it to inform my work.

    Thank you Helen this was well needed it really clears out the block of trying to be correct as growth is about refining and getting more and more in depth with our researching and writing... These are great guidelines and I feel much clearer and understand and appreciate the importance of all that you wrote....
