By tim, on October 16th, 2010 at 11:18 am My brain is too frazzled to write a proper blog entry today, but I need a break from revision. So I’ve taken a couple of photographs instead:
I hope that some of this is sinking in …
… but my study bunny is not convinced.
All the best to everyone for Monday.

By tim, on October 8th, 2010 at 9:57 pm Just in case anyone was wondering, the DD303 exam starts:
too late – it’s all over now!
So stop reading this blog now (or in my case, writing it) and get on with that revision. You know you want to do it. The time for procrastination is over … well, maybe tomorrow anyway.
Best wishes to all for the exam – and let’s hope the questions (and the examiners) are kind to us.
By tim, on October 2nd, 2010 at 8:07 pm So. October’s here and the DD303 exam is looming ever closer. I’ve now managed a complete circuit of the chapters I said I was going to revise, including the ones I’m intending to use as backup material. I feel ok, but I’m aware that I need to do rather more work over the remaining 15 days or so before the exam to get myself to the point where I stand a reasonable chance of getting the grade I want.
As part of the process, I’ve been revisiting my notes, correcting them and adding in links to other material as well . . . → Read More: DD303 – the final countdown
By tim, on September 27th, 2010 at 8:47 pm Things are looking a little different around here at the moment as I got bored with the old theme on the blog and I’ve decided to change it. I was going to wait until after the DD303 exam on the 18th, but hey, what would revision be without a little bit of procrastination?
By tim, on September 19th, 2010 at 7:49 pm This week, I’ve been working my way through the chapters I’ve chosen to revise, largely by reading through my notes and the information provided at the OUPS revision weekend and trying to see how much I can remember. It feels ok at the moment – though I’ve certainly still got a long way to go. I definitely need to get in some practice at writing 45 minute essays by hand as it’s been a real struggle getting through 3 hours of writing for both DSE212 and ED209 in previous years.
I also decided to submit my final TMA – even . . . → Read More: DD303 revision progress
By tim, on September 12th, 2010 at 2:30 pm I’ve been finishing off TMA06 and attempting to get down to some revision this weekend, with a mixed amount of success as the rest of the household seems to be in chaos. I’ve also got the gloomy thought of having to drive down to Bracknell later on as yet again, I’m starting my working week there. As I’m leading a training course for the salespeople first thing in the morning, I’ve decided that the only way I can be awake enough to make it worth their while is to sacrifice my Sunday evening and drive down to the luxury Bracknell . . . → Read More: DD303 TMA06 and more thoughts on revision

Following on from the OUPS revision weekend at Warwick, I’ve spent some time thinking about what to revise for the exam. I’ve now completed all the chapter notes I intend making (chapter 16 on cognitive modelling is my last) and just have TMA06 left to tweak before sending it in … that will be Thursday evening’s task. It’s then revision all the way from then until October 18th!
So, as I have to answer one methods question from a choice of 3; 2 questions from a choice of 6 from the textbook parts 1-4 . . . → Read More: DD303 revision thoughts
