Much appreciated Rhys, will explain...for starters do not worry about the timing, I will always ensure that you have plenty of time to develop and produce whatever activities are required, and if at anytime I feel that this needs to be extended, then so be it. I am more flexible in my approach to getting projects completed but was more concerned abotut the work you had to complete for the other units and lecturers. Hope this makes sense now....Keith - in other words, don't worry. 21/4/09 Keith, thanks for getting the Planner up for us but im a tad confused. As the assignments themselves have not been named im unsure of what is due on the 5th and the 6th of May (both your classes), im assuming one of them is the 2nd presentation but have no idea what the other is. A little bit of clarification on this matter would be great. Cheers, Rhys

8/4/09 Presentations today were absolutely fantastic. Feedback from the staff and lecturers in attendance as guests were so enthusiastic about your professionalism, passion and content, they have requested future attendance at other presentations. In addition, they have generated enough enthusiasm in speaking to other lecturing staff, that they also now wish to attend. Very well done to everybody and thank you....now you have set the benchmark for future work.
