Within my module "Advanced Theory and Context" at university, we have been given a brief which entails us to create an external reflective blog, where I will reflect on each weeks lessons and address various questions about the different topics within the textile industry. The blog will also need to include information about what I am creating/ inspired by/making within my other modules and any visits I go to throughout the year. The brief stipulates that this blog has to be at least 3000 words, and so what you are reading now an the previous posts are the beginning of my reflective blog.
The brief also requires me to produce a written assignment based on one of the research topics out of a list of topics which is provided to us by our lecturer. The assignment also needs to be 3000 words, with further outcomes of research linked into the reflective blog. Within this assignment I will need to thoroughly explore my research topic, using various types of research relevant to the context I plan on approaching my topic in.
I think this module will benefit me as I think it will open my mind up to the world of textiles from a more ethical, political, and social perspective rather than just the view of a designer. I think it will make me more aware of the problem and research opportunities within Textiles and also prepare me for the dissertation I will have to create in my final year of University.
