Module 1 - multiple choice
|
Hello all,
I wonder if you can steer me int he right direction. I am doing the multiple chocie questions and quesion 2 is about matching the right camera with different types of shots i.e. Portraiture/fashion and then choosing i.e. 35mm SLR.
I am looking in Manual of photography and also Langford's starting photography and I can't seem to find the answers.
Can anyone help me or steer me in the right direction?
Thanks

They aren't in the books. I had a rough idea, searched the 'net and then took best guess at ones I couldn't find.

Thanks for your reply Gary. I appreciate it.
I was under the impression that everything you needed was in the manual....that's a lot of money to spend on a course if the course materials don't help you!

Yeah I was quite surprised as well (and disappointed too).
Whilst it does give you a reading list in the module book, I would have expected that key information and guides to the multiple choice questions were in the course book.

Thought it was just me being a bit thick
It does seem a lot of money for finding everything out yourself. Thought it would suit me better doing a course on line now I'm not too sure with no one to ask. Hope things get better as I go along.

Hi Folks,
From memory, I thought I was able to find all the answers from somewhere within the course manual. I don`t spend too much time on the multiple choice to be honest - thats why I submitted a wrong answer for Mod2! I much prefer the practical bit....
By the way, are any of you using or have experience developing film? I posted something on the "Traditional Darkroom" forum this morning about loading 120 film into spirals - I has a nightmare last night and lost the shots I had taken for part of Mod3, so if anyone wants to share advice please take a look at my post.
All the best,
Chris

Finding things out for yourself is a sure way to remember them - I know if I am driven to place I could never get there on my own again but if I have to work out a route myself I stand a much better chance.
Most of the cost of the course goes on the feedback from the tutors and if once having done your best to find an answer to a problem you haven’t quite got it that is when they will help in that feedback.
If you have a question post it here as I or someone else will soon answer it and that way everyone else will benefit from the answer -it's exactly the same as being in a class and asking a question there.

Hi guys,
I think it's fair that the course demands a modicum of wider reading from you. In fact you'll find it's the case for most courses. Although the manual provides relevant course related info it can't cover everything - so for those items not covered you'll have to hit the books or do a spot of surfing on the web. Don't look at it as a chore but rather...a challenge. The course provides the structure for you to learn, your tutor grades your efforts, points the way forward and provides encouragment, but essentially it is you that teach yourselves through the process of completing the module work, reviewing your feedback and adding to or altering your work methods. Embarking on wider reading will strenghthen and enrich your photography as well as giving you with the tools to continue improving even when you've completed your studies.

Thanks for all the support - guess I was expecting the course to be easier than it seems. Will give you all a shout next time I'm stuck. Only got one more image to find then will be sending everything off for Mod 1 and look forward to the feedback.
Thanks
Christine

The course material doesn't actually give the answers, but it gives you plenty of background info. Pages 8,10 and 11 are quite handy (assuming the format of the book hasn't changed since I got my copy).
Says he who got a couple of these wrong
