A report on reports

Questions are starting to flood in about the second part of the assessment - 'the report'. I posted details on the shared files for this last semester, but to remind you all again:

Individually you must also produce a 'report' of the learning activity you organised. This should be reflective, showing evidence of how the activity has enhanced you as a geographer, and be supported by relevant reading. I use the term 'report' loosely - it might be an essay, a report, a reflective exploration...

Your individual written piece should be between 2000-3000 words and based on some aspect of the class activity. You may choose to cover the entire session (but don't just regurgitate what we saw on overheads!), or you may focus in on the theories of learning and how successful you felt they were, or you may choose to explore the substantive or theoretical issues you covered in a more traditional style 'essay'.


Whatever and however you do it - you must ground it in the literature, and you should be reflective. What have you learnt from this?

Hope that helps! :)

    If we wanted to say cover one particular aspect of the presentation, say for example in tranquility presentation on therapeutic landscapes, or in the music presentation on just the relation between place and music, would this be acceptable, so long as it was reflective of what we learnt?
