Bring laptops etc. this Friday please!

Hello all,


Just a reminder that if you have a laptop, ipad etc., please bring it to the session on Friday so you can do some research.


We will use that session to assemble into four groups for the first assessment and look at possible discussion topics. There are different ways in which we can do this and I will make some suggestions on the day.


This assessment is straightforward but requires some organization and clarification. You also need to bring to your assessment any notes you have used (can be printouts from the Internet, typed up, handwritten, whatever suits you).


As per our weekly plan of classes the first assessment will happen on the 6th and 13th October.


One group will come at 9 on 6/10 and another group at 10 on 6/10. The following week will see the remaining students come to do their assessment at 9 and 10 am respectively.


But I will give you some advice on how we can organize the groups in the session on 29th September.


This is the most straightforward (students in the past would certainly agree) of the eight assessments we will do and the feedback is normally pretty positive.


I will see you on Friday armed with the brief which explains the assessment clearly and we can take things from there.


I have booked some PCs in the library from 9.30 for those students who don't have a laptop, so you will still be able to access information too and won't be disadvantaged.


All the best,


Mark

  3. No problems, please make sure the rest of the class are reminded if they aren't keen blog viewers! And if anybody doesn't have a laptop etc., please reassure them that they won't be disadvantaged.
