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
I just wanted to say that the 'Dying to be thin' Documentary we watched in our last class was very interesting to me. The most surprising thing for me was the fact that instead of going back to Jack and looking to him now from his age at 16 rather than us seeing him just at 15, I was a little disappointed because we only got a very small comment from Fiona at the end that Jack is loosing weight slowly and is hoping to avoid surgary. I just felt that we should of been able to hear Jack say that was his outlook now because when he was 15 it seemed he was keen on the surgery and I feel because it wasn't him who said it and it was Fiona, it did not give the impact that it should of made. It would of been better coming from Jack. After all he was the one investigating.
