To safeguard your proposals and research methods, kindly ensure that the following materials are ready for use in defence of ideas when we meet after CTs. The pace is likely to acclerate considerably.

2. Specific concepts, methods, philosophies or approaches and / or strategies obtained from real-world context / other readings which you intent to apply in your WR.


On a personal note, there are a handful of groups which have resorted to appointing one member to work on questionaires and surveys alone. These materials were then tossed to me for editing with tons of careless mistakes and vague assertions made. The standards were less than satisfactory. Please understand that independent learning and group work are key demands of this subject. You are not likely to do well if little effort has been made to work and THINK as a team. I enjoy engaging your ideas but don't make me 'do the thinking / write the proposal ' for you!
It is ok to elect a change in team leader if the latter is unable to cope. Some of you are soldiering on when I suspect a change in leadership would energise the group pacing and climate for the better of all. This has to do with aptitude, not judgement. You can still function professionally as a team. Talk to me individually if this concerns you.
Please take good care of yourself this season. Those who are doing topics on emergency should be finding a goldmine of concepts and strategies in daily news by now. You know what to do :)
