Discussion assessment, session one

I really enjoyed the two discussion groups on Monday.

The 9am group detailed information about 'Burke and Hare' which included information about the film and many ineresting facts concerning the deadly duo. It also provided an agenda for some further research on the topic so well done group one.

At 9.30 the next group looked at the contentious subject of 'benefits' and many areas were covered, from personal stories to information current in today's news. The group analysed, debated and outlined a surfeit of different areas surrounding the subject of benefits and also did a great job.

As I thought, the discussions could have gone on a little longer, so in a way I am sorry that I didn't allow more time. That said, they may well have continued into the refectory afterwwards! All speakers were upbeat, well prepared and up for a natter. Can't ask for any more than that!

I am looking forward to hearing the final two group discussions on Wed at 12 noon and 12.30 respectively.

Well done,

Mark
