This year's course will commence on Wednesday 10th June at Edinburgh University's Central Campus.

We are currently finalising the content and arrangements for the course, however we are certain to be exploring the following themes in class and online:
  • Critical thinking
  • Finding academic resources
  • Discussion and presentation skills
  • Presenting evidence
  • Academic writing
  • Using feedback

There will be two compulsory assessment exercises, as follows:
  • a 1500-word individual essay (worth 50% of the final course mark)
  • a team project culminating in a 15-minute team presentation (worth 50% of the final course mark)

Full details of the course will appear on this site at the end of May however if you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact james.lamb@ed.ac.uk or alice.c.smith@ed.ac.uk. Meanwhile most of this site is password protected while we add content.

See you soon!

James and Alice (Course Tutors)
