Oral presentations

Dear all,

Since last session many of you decided not to come because of the strike, tomorrow's session will be devoted to:

1. Do the listening quiz that we didn´t do last week

2. Discuss your presentations and provide some help so that you are well prepared.

Therefore, those of you who didn´t come last session, please think of a discipline related topic that you would like to present.

The 5 or 6 people who did come last session are expected to explain more in detail what they think they will present. So, be ready to answer questions.

I will help around and show a presentation that may be used as a model.

See you tomorrow,

Claudia
