Student DIRT Task

Identify a strength or strengths in your assessment: The strengths in my assessment was my in detailed information, I went more into the information that I had instead of making a vague point. This meant that my work increased in marks because I got more marks from analysis and not just knowledge. Therefore, this is what I done well. What are the areas you need to improve? I need to improve on making my points clear, therefore highlighting and repeating what I am trying to say, this will therefore mean that my point is highlighted and made clear for the reader. This will add more marks as the examiner will be able to actually see and realise what I am talking about. What do you need to focus on for your next assessment? On my next assessment I need to focus in on the evaluation and overall answering the question instead of just presenting knowledge on it. This will therefore improve my answer and generate more marks.
