Re-Positioning / Discussion of statements

In the last theory session we discussed the different dispositions and gave individual feedback. While reading the other papers, I already noticed that my topic is still much too vaguely described and that I still have to narrow it down enormously.

During the lesson I received a lot of constructive feedback from my fellow students and Joëlle and I am very grateful for it.

On the one hand, I should look more intensively into the research, what similar works and projects already exist. And as mentioned before, my angle is still too vague. I should further describe why I am exactly suitable for this specific topic.

On the other hand, I should look more into what the final product might look like and in which relationships the communication of emotions can be fostered. Someone even suggested starting a collaboration with a student from zhaw or PH. And most of them are enthusiastic about the fact that I don't only want to involve the "usual" state school but also private rather controversial school education like the Rudolf Steiner School. (To which I must say, however, that the Rudolf Steiner School is not controversial to me at all). I will definitely read up on the different attachment styles that a person develops.
