1. What
skills have you developed through this module and how effectively do you
think you have applied them?
I have developed a range of skills on this module,
especially when it comes to print processes, such as becoming more
efficient on the laser cutter, learning how to foil and flock and learning
how to emboss using the laser cutter. I feel I have applied these well to
my project, because I had to go into detail on how to do these processes so
I gained a stronger understanding of them. Because of this strong
understanding I was able to produce a strong range of publications that
explain the processes well. Another skill I have learned is to code which I
feel I have developed on by reading HTML and CSS. This skill helped me to
produce a whole website.

2. What approaches to/methods of design production
have you developed and how have they informed your design development
process?
Methods of design production I have learned are
foiling, flocking, laser cutting and embossing. These then helped me to
produce 4 publications that help tell people how to do these processes. I
have also learned how to code a website, this then helped me to produce a
whole website that had roll over buttons and images placed on it. This
would not of been achieved if I hadn’t learnt any coding.

3. What strengths can you identify in your work and
how have/will you capitalise on these?
Some strengths I feel I have are gained are laser
cutting and foiling, I will capitalise on these by doing them more often
and experimenting on different surfaces. Another strength I have gained is
using grids more often, these have helped me so much in this project
because they have aloud me to layout my website and my publications. I will
capitalise on this by trying to use grids where possible for everything.
Something else I feel is a strength is coding, where I have learnt so much
in such a small amount of time, and I will start to build on this and see
what else I can do with a website.

4. What weaknesses can you identify in your work and
how will you address these in the future?
Some weakness I have found are that I don’t blog as
a I go and so I start to become behind and don’t focus on my work in hand
with enough attention. I will address this by being more organised and
keeping track of my time. Another weakness I found was that some of the
finishing techniques weren’t quite as a high quality as I wanted them to
be, to address this I would be more prepared so I could create a load of
different variations and select the best one, so if things went wrong I
could then adjust it and do it again or scrap it altogether.

5. Identify five things that you will do differently
next time and what do you expect to gain from doing these?
Blog as I go, this will leave me time to focus on my
work
Organise time, have print slots booked ready so I
can plan my time around them this then enforcing me to be more organised
Use different print methods, this will then give me
and even better understanding of print and help me on my way to third year
Source my stock, this will then give me something I
can work with a design around, I could then again experiment and see what
works best for example making packaging.

The evaluation of your work is an important part of
the assessment criteria and represents a percentage of the overall grade. It
is essential that you give yourself enough time to complete your written
evaluation fully and with appropriate depth and level of self-reflection. If
you have any questions relating to the self evaluation process speak to a
member of staff as soon as possible.
