•
This module is FINISHED omg so much group work, but genuinely one of the best group projects I've ever been in (said no student ever?)
•
We managed to get our report finished for the product we were making which was a pre & post sports nutrition bar. Thankfully a lot of the research had already been completed and just needed compiling.
•
The other part of the assessment for that module was making the actual product, and making 3 A1 posters to present in a showcase situation. I went off with a few of the others in my group to make the product, and when we got back the other group were STILL gluing and sticking stuff on the board (it did look really good though!)
•
It's kinda hard to explain but basically every person doing a food based course in my year was split into a 7 or 8 person group and we all had to make a new product, and also produce 3 boards we needed to show things like costings, HACCP, allergens, sustainability, manufacturing etc.
•
On the day we were in one of the fancy university buildings they use for conferences, and lecturers and industry people came and asked us questions in small groups.
•
We were assessed like 5 times for about 20 minutes each time It was actually so tiring - and at the end when we could go round and try everybody's products, friends and family were allowed to come, and one lad was so tired he'd fallen asleep on one of the chairs
•
Still waiting on the grade for that but I think that will take a while to get back to us but overall really pleased how that went
•
We were invited for a free drink at the fancy bar within the posh university building, and it was so funny because on our course group chat after there was a clear divide between people who went to bed at 8pm and people who stayed out drinking until 2am (I was the latter)
•
its the end of term and we've just started practicals why. But they're kind fun
The first practical we did we got given some different flavoured aroma liquids and some fizzy pop and we got to create our own apple flavoured drink
•
The second practical was on GC-MS (gas chromatography) which was slightly more complicated as I've always struggled with chromatograms for some reason. It also didn't help; I was half exhausted from the assessment from NPD which didn't finish until 6pm the day before, and that practical was at 9am My dyslexia was being a pain in the
that day as well - gets worse when I'm tired, and I kept writing some numbers down wrong too which was especially annoying, but oh well.
•
Got final practical (ever for 3rd year) tomorrow and I believe it's on olfactometry
•
This module is also done. I had a final test on Monday just gone which was luckily open book and we were allowed to take notes in with us (one of the questions I had the exact wording and definitions for )
•
glad this modules over
•
another module also done, I somehow got 75% on the data report which I ended up dreaming about
•
we had a presentation today which I think went quite well! The lecturer said at the end for our group she should set us an exam too bc we'd done a lot of research still not sure if that's a good thing or not
•
I have work off for Easter, and my train ticket is booked for this weekend!
•
No more group work for uni (well unless i do a mastes )
