VIDEO WEEK!

This week was the best lesson for me overall as we were given a really interesting task and moreover it was the last week for classes for holiday break. So you can guess that everyone was cheerful more than usual. Anyways, one of the assignments to link in our portfolio was to make a video.I have never in my life written a script or acted myself in a video so this was something really new to me in my educational journey. When I found out first I was very nervous because I hate acting but then again at the same time I felt excited as it was completely new for me therefore I wanted to give it a try. We were given some topics from where we could select any one of them to make our video based on it. This was a group task so we had to form a group of three, I decided to stick on the same group which we had formed earlier for the case study.  We were very keen to do good interview and bad interview for our video because we all had ideas and personal experiences. We discussed some ideas and finalised the characters. Lorik would be playing the interviewer, Simran would be doing the bad interview whereas I would be doing the good interview. I was quite happy with my part. We worked on our script together in class but could not finish it. We had to film our video after the holidays so we had plenty of time. That’s about it for this week I hope everyone has a good Christmas and new year.

Hello People, so today we did something different again in lesson. I am sure all most everyone is aware of the brand diesel, why would you not after all it is such a famous brand. Well, we had to do a case study based on it. We had to form a group of three or four and work on it together. I formed a group of three people with Lorik, Simran and myself and was quite happy to be with them on the same task. I thought that the best way to start off was by reading through the whole case study in a group rather than reading it individually. While reading it we highlighted paragraphs that we thought are important. Three was three task in the question paper with set of questions, i went through them and some were obviously related to diesel and others were based on marketing. It was quite simple actually. We though t it would be best if we divide the questions so each of us got set of questions. We just did few of them in class as we did not have time to finish all. I also tracked by shares and found out the share price of ASOS has gone down. Again today I learnt a new information based on diesel which was quite interesting. See you all next week :D

Its all about MINDMAP!

Hi everyone, this is the third week of professional competences, I was very cheerful in class today maybe because of the good weather which is very rare. Our class proceeded as usual and I learnt a new topic today that is Mind map. Mind map is basically a diagram used to visually outline information and is created using a software .Two software can be used which are X Mind or Mindmo. I had never heard or used this software to create a particular diagram before therefore I found it very interesting and amusing to use it. I think this software is very helpful and useful to use it in any projects. In class I tried to learn how to use this program and found it very simple because we had been provided with a guide on how to use its functions which was attached to our scheme of work therefore it made our work a lot simpler. We were given to do the mind map on 10 professional competences which we had discussed in our lecture.Have a look at an example of what a Mindmap looks like and i will soon be linking mine on my portfolio page :D

Welcome to my second Blog, today the weather has been very dull but the spirit of the class is still lively, Danyel explained us what we needed to work on for our portfolio and we discussed any issues or confusions we had regarding our assignments. In lesson we carried on with our PLC research project. I decided to do an in dept research on my company. I know that ASOS is a very popular online retailer as I do most of my shopping there because they have a lot of variety and trendy cloths, shoe and accessories. However, apart from this I am completely unaware of the company’s background therefore I was very curious and excited to do my research on the company .This is the second week for professional competences class and each week we track down the share price of our company. I track the share price exactly at 2:25 on Monday. This week the share price of ASOS has gone up in comparison to last week’s price which was 2322, this weeks price is 2460. It is very good and recommended to buy shares from ASOS. Overall I believe my lesson was very informative and found out new information that I would probably never be aware of if I did not have my assignments based on it.

Welcome To My First Blog!

Today we did a small exercise on the market share price of companies. It was a very interesting lesson as I learnt to track the share price in the newspaper and also found useful links in the internet to learn about the various changes in the market share price and FTSE. We had to choose a company for our assignment and I choose to do my assignment based on ASOS which is a leading online retailer. I choose ASOS because first of all it is a very popular online retailer in the market and personally it is one of my favourite retail to shop. On my research I found lots of information about ASOS, there history, investors and share price. I was actually very surprised to learn that ASOS is one of the leading online retailers globally and its share price is very high and good to purchase. I had never tracked a share price for a company before and I am glad that I learnt a new thing today. I have attached a link below where it gives relevant information about ASOS.
