Petar Kolundzic completed the first two days of his design and technology internship. On day 1, he discussed methods for his project with his mentor and prepared timber. His mentor then had him practice wood turning and create sample bowls to improve his skills. On day 2, his mentor monitored his techniques and provided tips to increase his performance and correct any mistakes. His mentor also showed him the appropriate tools for different parts of the project. Practicing helped Petar improve his skills and avoid mistakes on his final project.

As this is day 1 and my timber was slightly delayed I discussed methods of creating my project with my mentor. Once this was completed I prepared any timber I had at that current point in time. Once I completed this my mentor wanted to see my current skill level in wood turning and creating bowls. He then gave me scrap timber and asked me to create practice bowls before I begin creating my own in the upcoming days. Today my mentor monitored my techniques during my wood turning practices. He then gave me tips on what I can do to increase my performance and also improved my mistakes in what I was doing the wrong way if issues occurred. Also he showed me the right tools for certain jobs that are better suited for my project depending on the way I plan to manufacture my bowl.

How might this
activity impact on the Internship outcome
This activity impacted my internship in a positive way. It provided me with practice
before I commence my actual project. This is helpful because I can avoid mistakes when it comes to creating my final project. This activity also gave me a refresher on some on my skills and showed me new ones with new techniques.
