g4rl1cg1rl IT IS EXACTLY THIS. i never knew about ches until i read about you doing it, and I WAS DEVASTATED. i feel as if i donāt reach my full potential because it requires so much more than what is being offered. a lot of the weekly tasks, if done properly, do help with the overall product, but most of the time it is just the bare minimum and thatās what iāve come to doing.
i just do what is urgent. like this week we got our SAC2 to work on for the weeks duration and iām just researching when we need to. i feel like they expect us to KNOW what we have to do but half of the time there is no clear sense of direction.
and even with data collection, iāve looked ahead on their ātimelineā and they want us to have it done by the end of term. THAT IS CRAZY. i want to finish data collection, data analysis and begin writing some stuff up for the final report. it feels really restrictive and i hate that as a learner, especially when i want to do so well in EI because i fought so hard with my school to do it.
like please, the whole āthemeā on the page where all our work is is literally lego themed. itās a motif, i understand, but it feels so insulting because the subject is full of intelligent people and youāre undermining that with lego.
sorry thanks for attending my ted talk, i really despise the whole situation right now. and i love talking, so sorry for all these wordsā¦
im just curious though, where are you at with your research? like methodology/writing wise because thereās really no timeline i have and want to have something to compare with.
