Place Week Two: Secondary Research and Note making

Week Two

This week we learnt secondary research, note taking and note making. Secondary research using and comparing other peoples research for your self as long as you give credit to the original souse. The information could be taken from books, videos, the internet and or museum trips. If you don't give credit its called plagiarism. Note taking is writing down notes as they happen. It should contain highlights for important information. Note making is processing the ideas, organising them and understand what they mean.

I found the note taking and note making very useful. I've never been that keen on taking note before or even being good at it. However after this week I feel more confident in my ability to take notes. At the being of the week I felt that I already knew note taking, its something every school teaches but once the week began, my perspective on the subject grew. There was definitely more to note taking the I thought.

That being said I do wish there was more information about how to do secondary research. We just barely scratched the surface on the proper method on the subject. During the week working at home I hit multiply brick walls upon doing me research until I sought help from the tutor and from my fellow peers. I defiantly liked some more details during the lesson but I evenly found the information I was looking for.

This week definitely gave me some tools for the future. Im talking about the note taking and the secondary research of course. The two topics are sort of the same thing now that thinking about it, which will be both important in the future. Hayao Miyazaki, one of the people I wrote about.

As the final week looms over I consider, what am I going to do? I thought about the final idea for quite some time now and I have an idea on what to do next. I have decided to do a poster on one of my locations; The Studio Ghibli Museum. I hope to achieve a poster made in Adobe Illustrator and try to capture the feel of Studio Ghibli and an old 60s to 70s Disneyland poster. At the end I'll have my final poster, three prototypes and a scrapbook full of neat ideas.
