Part 1
Once I was able to write about an actual elearning professional in my "professional" context the exercise became easier to relate to and focus on. It became doable.
Part 2
A major pain was identifying all the evidence/forum messages. I had a pdf with 189 pages of largely repeated messages - i.e., new messages that included the rest of the thread. And I was to blame for a lot of that content! I hadn't systematically filed away the messages as they were produced or soon after. Lack of time and the benefit/need of hindsight in categorising the evidence were probably factors.
I think I would have found it easier (and would have used fewer words) if I had written in the 1st person. Emma asked about this and Robin replied positively but saying she should confirm with her group tutor. I thought it too late to go asking for and waiting for confirmation and simply needed to get on with it.
Overall, I need to stay on track and start preparing for the ECA from now. I definitely shouldn't leave writing till the last week.
