Just completed my first assignment for my Education Studies course!
My task was to write 1,500 words about a key reformer which has contributed to the development of the education within the UK. When having a gap year from being in education and this is your first assignment, this 1,500 words has suddenly became a mountain right in front of my eyes.
When it came to deciding what I was going to write about, I believed that for my first assignment I should write something that took my interest, that I have read about and has took my interest, therefore I wrote my assignment on the the contributions of the Foundation Phase towards the education of today. After completing my essay I felt like this mountain become a tiny little rock and that I had panic and myself worry way, too much!
If I could give poeple tips for going about tackling their first assignment I would tell them to stop and take a beather, brake it down and read over the question. To help them manage to get all their points over to the reader, start off with a brain storm and then step by step work through to the end.
