PenW Apr 2019 12:18pm, 22 Apr 2019 1,720 posts	Quote Pin PenW Well done TM. I'm trying to find the motivation to do my case study (due Friday but really need it done by end tomorrow). It's not difficult, and I've got some of it done, it's just getting down to it and getting everything I need to write squashed into just 2000 words. Will be very glad when it's done!

early bird May 2019 7:53am, 10 May 2019 12,433 posts	Quote Pin early bird Ok so update on where I stand atm. Another meeting planned with pdt team on 24th this time whole cohort has been 'invited'. Still not recieved any feedback on my presentation (despite being told two weeks and I would be prioritised). Got to uni yesterday to find out other people did have feedback! Very angry and upset. Managed to find a tutor who would have a brief look at my work and give some very valuable feedback and pointers. Told the tutor in the lecture I didn't have any feedback, he asked the who group if any of them had not recieved theirs....... Lots of hands went up. He chuckled and said 'oh dear looks like I only did half the group'!!!!! In the morning we were told he would be marking the presentations. A few people had recieved feedback from him and another tutor which massively contradicted each other (his feedback was very critical to the point of saying none of it was much good) . They went to another tutor who agreed with the first one that they were on the right track it was all looking good and to continue how they were. At that point the student told her what happened and how it had happened to a lot of the others too. Beginning of the afternoon two tutors came to have a 'chat' to get some feedback from us. We sat and told them everything we told the pdt team. They wrote everything down were very apologetic etc. They have promised to get our time table updated (at present we only have two weeks of study information on there despite not finishing until end of August. One person told them we had a meeting (doh) anyway they denied knowledge until more was said and they admitted they knew about it but atm had not been invited but that may change. So still waiting to see if they have managed to sort out lectures for this afternoon or not will login and check but hopefully they'll be there. Doesn't leave long to look at them this morning though. Oh also informed the course is going to change but we aren't being moved over as it would disadvantage us not really told how or why except don't be concerned you will still have everything you need nothing is being missed 😕 So frustrating atm. Did manage to find out that someone has finally been allocated as module leader however they are really busy with other stuff so will have a 'team' helping. I guess watch this space. There has been mutterings that the hospital are considering putting together a business plan to bring it all 'in house' 😮 I don't think that will happen but guess it shows how unhappy they are atm. In the meantime exam on 22nd for bio science and presentation on 6/7th June. Head down until I'm out the other side 🤓 👩‍🎓
