Presentation Boards

I'm really pleased with the work that I have produced for this module. I think it's some of my best work. In terms of practical I think I have produce a visually strong, cohesive package of work. Although there are some minor errors along with the logo mistake, overall I'm really proud of the work I have produced. Looking back on the work I produce for CoP2 last year, I think I see an improvement and I've really pushed myself.

Writing a dissertation was something I've been worried about doing for years. Writing is certainly not a strong point of mine, but I really put my all in to it and almost enjoyed what I was writing about. I still can't believe I actually wrote it. I think I chose my topic well.

 I have really thrown myself into this project and the research and I think it comes through in both the written and practical. I don't think the research is something I've been that good at in the past, but with it being such an important part of this module, I ensured that I gathered a lot of research. Secondary research was easily accessible as this is currently a hot topic in the media. Hugh Fearnely-Whitingstall presented a food waste programme right in the middle of my research, along with Country File doing a segment too. Adam Smith, Co-Founder of the Real Junk Food Project also did a talk at the university, and with first ever cafe being in Leeds - it was perfect. This is not to say that I didn't do anything, as I made efforts to go and interview people - even places where I didn't feel comfortable (TRJFP). Though I do regret not talking to more people. I feel as though the research comes through in my work and that the synthesis is strong between the written and practical. Both of these I feel answered my dissertation question, with the practical also finding a possible solution.

Whatever my grade is going to be, I am truly proud of myself and the work I have produced.
