Written Personal Investigation. Last leg!




























Now that you have completed most of your investigation, it is time to reflect, self-assess and round up all of your loose ends.

To help you with analysis of your chosen artefacts, there is a central Analysis Help sheet HERE that collects together all of the methods for deconstructing and explaining formal elements among other helpful things. Remeber, at least 5 artefacts should be given close examination. 

A simple 'Ways Of Looking' sheet is HERE for personal interpretation, context and analysis

The structure of your investigation is summed up in THIS document.

To aid you with your own self-assessment in terms of content, you can use the Personal Investigation Checklist HERE.

You will also formulate a conclusion, to sum up your argument or tie up your findings.

Spellcheck and read back through. You'll be amazed at some of your most obvious mistakes.

Lastly, you will need to present either in your sketchbook or on your Google presentation.
