Dear all,
Please read my previous post about the article that you have to read for the session after the oral presentations. Also, you are expected to write a comment to one of your classmates about his/her presentation. The idea of this comment is that you provide your feedback. Think of the following:

1. How was the presentation organized? Was it easy to follow?
2. Did the presenter know the subject well? Was he or she able to answer questions?
3. Was the choice of images, slides, etc. helpful to understand the presentation?
4. What aspects of the presentation do you think need improvement? Don´t need improvement?
5. More feedback...?

Dear all,
The oral presentations will take one more session. So far, the people who have presented in both groups have done a great job. Congratulations!!.

After the presentations have finished, both section one and section two students should get a photocopy (from the photocopying centre in Agustinas) of chapter 1 of the book The story of England by Christopher Hibbert. We will discuss it in class, so read it beforehand. Section one students should read it for Friday 12, section two students will have to read for Monday 15.
See you in class,
Claudia
