PDP Review

My first target is putting more time into each piece of work, I have been making loads of progress with this target because I am spending at least twice as long doing each piece of work so that I am completing it to the best of my ability. The strategy I used to improve this target was to complete the work and then review and find faults, the correct them and then get my dad to review it and correct any faults he finds, this strategy was very effective and I am doing much better in my assignments. I have made progress with this target because I am getting much better grades in my assignments and I am currently meeting the top level for each assignment in all of my assignments. A new strategy that I might use is to get my teacher to review my work too.

My second target is to listening more in class, I have made lots of progress with this target because I am listening more and more to what it being said in class and I am asking more questions too. The strategy I used to improve on this target was to always make sure that no matter what I'm doing I turn around and listen when the teacher is talking, sometimes even if they are talking to someone else about their work I turn around. I have made progress with this target because I am hearing everything the teachers are saying and I'm not missing any important information, I also got a raffle ticket for paying excellent attention during presentations. A new strategy I might use is to note down the key things that the teachers say in class.

My last target is to improve my public speaking, I have made a lot of progress with this target because I am speaking out more in class and the other day due to the fact that I had finished the work I went around the class helping people do their work. The strategy I used to improve this target was to say a little more each lesson so that I gradually build up my confidence in my public speaking. I have made progress with this target because I am speaking more in class and I got recognision from Terrence about how good my communication skills are. A new strategy I might use is to purposely put myself in situations where I have to do public speaking.

A new target that I'm going to set myself is to make sure that I use my free time at college to do or improve on my work as this may benifit me in the long run.
