CHC50113- LA017438 Anecdotal observation

Hello Team
I am attempting anecdotal observation off the job assessment and seem to have an awful lot of info.
I have attached what I have completed so far and I am concerned I have too much unnecessary information and I may not be keeping this as simple as I should.
looking forward to feedback

Your observation is very detailed and from what you wrote you can probably use all that information for 2 separate observations. 1) Observation regarding the numbers 2) Observation stacking then very high then falling down and waiting to show Allison. I've highlighted the first part of your observation which you can use for 1 observation which focuses on the numbers and counting...

I think it's great that it is very detailed! You just need to split it so you can focus on one area/goal overall...

Hope this helps,

I am only half way thru the actual video we have to analyse. My understanding is we have to report on the whole scenario.
I believe my issue is I can keep going back to a video picking up on things I missed. If I was to write down an observation which just occurred without video I wouldn't be able to keep going back to check each action.....getting stressed

Hi Kell,

Sorry I didn't realise that you were doing an Observation from a video. In that case, just treat it as an observation that you are watching meaning you can't go back to remember every single detail. Just observe what you see while you're watching the video. It helps you to practice when you have to do real observations in the future.
