Feedback:

  • Digest the information you have research so that you are able to talk the class through images
  • Work as a team, this is an integral part of the project
  • Over the last two presentations I will be marking your presentations exclusively. I.E. I am marking your presentation skills, and will not have you mark each other. I have found an inflated peer marking which seems fundamentally dishonest.
