Links to the final listening and presentation analysis assessments

Hi all,

You will definitely be able to access the TED talk from home and you SHOULD be able to access the Click View documentary too with any luck. In the case of the latter not being accessible for you outside of the college, all the Stevenson College PCs have Click View on them, and you key in the words 'Dying to be Thin'.

The links then are as follows:

Oral Presentation Skills analysis - Ben Saunders skis to the North Pole: http://www.ted.com/talks/lang/en/ben_saunders_skis_to_the_north_pole.html

Communication 4 listening - 'Dying to be Thin' presented by Fiona Bruce : http://webplayer.clickview.com.au/?p=CPdc

For those members of the class who were in attendance on Wednesday 2nd May you now have a pack with all the assessment questions for the two pieces noted above, as well as the final reading assessment.

I am happy to receive your answers by e mail and remember, we have 409 on a Monday morning but only the Learning Centre on the second floor on a Wednesday 11.15-1.15.

Many thanks,

Mark
