About me
I have lived in England for a very long time but am originlly from the Czech Republic. I started at the RVC websiteat 2002, intercalated at University of Bristolin 2004/2005 . It seems like I have been at college for quite a long time now!
My passion are animals of all kind, especially my numerous pets. I like them to be my friends and partners, rather than just tools for fun. I have a soft spot for birds and often look after wildlife casulties. I also enjoy the countryside, playing guitar, fencing and have a now resting motorbike.
What I hope to get out of this project
Keeping my hand in the veterinary field.
My best learning experience
Natural horsemanship and anything hands on
Pathology that interests me
bone and cartilage exotics, especially birds, in general
Pathology that is difficult
anything that is too much at once, a bit by bit can be managed
Day one thoughts
What (three things) I learnt today
How to use WikiVet to a hopefully sufficient level Who to contact for resources when stuck Try to provide for different types of learners
What I still need to learn
How to combine the resources available to a useful outcome - working progress Issues about copyright
How I feel about what has happened today
I have a starting point and know roughly where we are trying to get
Three weeks into the wikivet project (or thereabouts)
Sections I've been working on
What I feel I've gained so far from being involved in the project
- Spending time on a particular topic and trying to write it down in a logical manner with links to other existing topics is a good way to let things stick in your brain a bit better!
- Valuable time (for both me and hopefully others) while temporarily unable to continue with my veterinary studies.
- Better understanding of some pathology terms, I don't like writing down what I don't understand (not such a big issue with just reading it).
Problems or issues that I've had or can forsee
- Trying to standardise pages and topics as information given to us (incl. books) is very varied, may be someone needs to go over that at the end of bulk writing?
- It is difficult to judge how much is for undergraduate and what is a post graduate level.
- Copyrights over images again.
- What about 'special species' - incorporate them in, separate section or leave out?
My suggestions for improving the way the project works for the future
- I feel the bulk of the text should go on first, then start adding stories, links, pictures, flash cards, concept maps etc. I think it would be easier to handle that way.
- Keeping a system within a particular school at first (for bulk writing) and let all the schools contribute to the extras.
- If we really want standardisation, it may have to be one or two people going over it all at the end.
What involvement (if any!) I would like to have with the project in the future
- I would like to have as much involvement as possible until March 2008.
- From March 2008 the time I could commit would be a little patchy but I would like to keep involved, may be adding the 'extras'?
