Exercises
Please remember to check with your unit co-ordinator or tutor before submitting your assignments, as their style preference may vary from the guidelines presented (Vancouver, Harvard). For the assignments and the presentations I will give you some advises: First define the objective of yr issue or presentation Write the material for yr issue, taking into account the background of yr audience or the tutor’s demands Think when? Where? How long? Make sure you have read the essential recommended bibliography, researching material, and the main important is to re-think :what is the objective of yr issue? Finally, think how long yr assignment or presentation should be last. (for written is around 5-7 A4 paper, for presentation is 15-20 seconds, not more because the audience may be sleep. Ask yr self: Can this piece of information contribute to my presentation?
