Discussion of research project proposals.

Due to a medical situation there has been a minor change in the calendar for the reading assignment presentations. See learning platform for updated list - 01/04.

For the research project presentations you need to:
- rewrite your abstracts/outlines/references and submit them on the day of the presentation;
- send to me by email your PPT presentations before the day of your presentation (do not forget!).

Today we also discussed the importance of good oral presentations and what they consist of. Here are some links to help you prepare:

Keep in mind that each presentation ( Exit West + research project) is worth 25% of your grade, in other words, the two of them add up to 50%. It is extremely important that these presentations are well prepared and presented, through a critical perspective.

On Wednesday, April 3, the written tests will be handed back with feedback.
