Hi

Sandra,

thanx a lot for the advice in your response for Fumi, will take some time to come for the sessions.

You are a very good and practical (Teacher) lecturer. Keep up the good work and good luck in your new and future groups and most of all; whatever research or writing you are doing at the moment.
Victoria (Viv)

Good luck - and don't forget there is support available

Good luck in your other modules - and don't forget - the LDU has support to help you produce the best writing possible.

Tuesdays we run Dissertation classes at two and six. These will be followed by a postgraduate Writers' Club running in the six PM slot.

Wednesday mornings we are running an open Writers Club - in four-week cycles; from 10.30-12.00 in room LC-G36.

Just bring an assignment, and preferably a colleague working on the same topic, and there will be practical writing activities to take you through it!

Happy new year - last taught session(s)

Dear All - here's hoping that you all managed to have a rest over the yule break - also wishing you all much joy and fulfilment in 2009!

I am so sorry that I missed the session before christmas; an unavoidable family emergency. However, given the nature of the module, and that you are all driving the teaching and learning, I am assuming that those of you who came in managed to help yourselves and each other.

At the same time, as well as meeting you tonight (6th January), I can offer an additional session next Tuesday evening if you feel that you need it.

Tonight I plan that we make time to review writing progress to date - through individual tutorials and peer review - and that you complete a Module Review form for me such that I can work to improve the module year on year.

I have really enjoyed working with you all - and wish you all good kuck on future courses.

Best,
Sandra
