PROJECT REVIEW

When you have finished everything else, you must carry out a review of the whole project. Think about what went well and what went wrong so that you can learn by your mistakes next time. Remember that the audience for this is the moderator. Try to be honest, even when talking about yourself!

You must consider these three areas:

1 The project as a whole

Think about:

what the project set out to achieve
to what extent you have met the objectives
how well your plan worked
how well you managed your time
whether you chose the right people as your test users and reviewers
what, if anything, went wrong
what others had to say
what improvements you would make if you had time
what you would do differently if you did the project again

Use feedback from others to support what you have to say.

2 The publications

For each one, think about:

whether each one gets the right message across to the intended audience
whether each one is fit for purpose, including the design as well as content
how each one could be improved – make use of feedback from others here
to what extent the eportfolio is well structured and easy to use – again, include comments from reviewers

3 Your own performance

Questions you should ask include:

How well did you work during the project?
How do you think your work on this project affected your performance in other work?
How have you benefited from working on the project?
What would you do differently if you did the project again?

How will you present your review?

Your review could be any combination of:

A word-processed report
a verbal evaluation recorded in sound or video
a presentation

Try to make it as interesting as possible for the moderator. You could include links to relevant areas of the eportfolio to illustrate points you are making. Some of your comments on the publications will probably be included in your commentaries – this is fine!

you need to save this for your eportfolio Convert your review to acceptable file format(s) if necessary and include it in your eportfolio. Make sure that you include links to these files on the context pages and that they work.
