IA 2022
Sunday 17 April 2022
Actually the title should be 2023 since that is when this lot will do their exam, however I always get the IA done early so my first year students have just handed in their 1st draft. I have given feedback and they have 1 week to finish it off. The photo was taken on the day of the 1st draft deadline. My students surprised me by turning up to class dressed in their smart clothes. This is not the full set of students, there are about 10 more, it's certainly been a busy 3 weeks. I thought I would list the research questions with a photo. There has been some excellent work done, they should be as proud of themselves as I am of them.
