      Dear students,

      hope you are keeping well and staying healthy in the pandemic.

      We have no seminar this week as 28th October is a Bank Holiday

      We will meet up in the live seminar next Weds 4th November 2020 at 2 pm on MS Teams.

      Your task - assignment on Text 3 is to read the text properly and do the ppt presentation for me this time: Max 10 slides and 30 mins of your comments. Point out the structure of the text, main arguments and concepts you should notice, and conclusion, discussion and implications for current society etc. Use my ppt presentation on previous 2 texts we worked with as your template.

      The deadline is on 10th November 2020. 

      You are also due to submit a short essay on Text 2 by 27th October 11.59 pm in Moodle file

      We will discuss Text 3 in the live Webinar on 4th November. I won't do the ppt presentation for you this time but we swap the role in this task. I am looking forward to seeing and hearing your work on Text 3 in this form of ppt presentation.

      Let me know in chat here or by email if any queries

      Good luck with your work and

      Dear students,

      I am writing addressing some questions from some of you.

      we are not online today, you only have the ppt presentation to listen at the time of the seminar is scheduled and write a short essay after the presentation and after you have read the text for this week. Your work on the short essay paper falls ideally to the remaining scheduled time of the seminar after you check the presentation. The deadline for submission is on next Tues at 5pm. The seminars will be organised in this way except of the Live Webinars scheduled as you can see in Moodle. I will remind you about the Live Webinars and send you the link sufficiently in advance by email.

      Please, check the Moodle here too.

      Please, post any of your questions in Moodle in the Chat rooms set up for you so other people can be informed too.

      Many thanks,

      Good luck with your writing today,

      Talk soon again
