The first few sessions in the Ne'er

Hi everybody.

This is how I plan to spend the first few weeks back after the Christmas holidays:

7th January 2013 - practice analysis of an oral presentation (in groups) - taken from the TED website.
8th January 2013 - finish off above in class.

14th January 2013 - assessment and discussion on presentation analysis (Oral Presentation Skills) - this also will be a talk from the TED website.
15th January 2013 - finish off assessment / remediation as necessary.

Now, there may be changes to the days I teach you here as we move into semester two as the timetables haven't been finalised yet, but:

Week beginning 21st January 2013 - listen to radio programme on 'Language' and answer questions (in groups), finish off questions / discussion as necessary.

Week beginning 28th January 2013 - assessment on listening (Comm 4 Listening outcome). This will be a radio programme and will follow the same pattern as the unassessed work from the week before.
