Katerina_Academic Writing_S2012

Our last meetings were incredible. I lerned a lot and I am very thankful for that.

The first draft of my paper was a challenge for me because I had to fly to Bulgaria and I couldn’t finish it before my flight, so I had to continue writing at home. My brother had his graduation and besides, there was a strong earthquake in my city, so that I had problems with my concentration and I was scared that the time will not be enough to write 2000 till 2500 words. However, I finished my first draft on time and I was really happy.

The feedback that I got from my professor about my first draft was not bad but I still had to revise some parts and try to improve them. I also had to do my poster mock up and to try to understand the different parts of the case analysis.

The first part of the case analysis exam was very interesting and the time was enough to read and to understand the text. The only problem that I had was that I was not sure if I understood the parts we should write next time very well. I did some notes but I was not sure that they would be very helpful for me. I was very excited about the next part of the exam and with the feedback that I got about my mock up, I hoped that not only my exam, but also my poster presentation will be successful.

For our next meeting I revised my poster mock up and tried to prepare myself for the next part of the case analysis exam. I hoped that it will be successful.

The exam went well but the time was not enough for me, so I am not sure if I did it well enough. The feedback about my mock up poster was good, so I revised it quickly and now, I am trying to find an appropriate color for my poster. I think that I will use blue, because I want it to be colorful and different. I hope that everybody will like it. I have to write a lot and also have to stick the slides together but I have enough time to do it. As usual, I am very excited about our next meeting. It will be great to see what the others did with their poster and what did they do the whole semester. I hope that I will learn a lot after this meeting.

The poster presentation session was great. I am so impressed because I saw so many interesting posters and so many interesting topics. Everybody put a lot of effort to do a great poster. Our last meeting was longer but it was just awesome. I am very happy that I had the opportunity to be a part of this course. I learned a lot, I met nice people and I got positive and negative feedback and I am very thankful for that! I hope that I did a good job with my paper and my poster presentation because I tried to do my best and I enjoyed it a lot!!
