As we near the end of the second last week of preparation, this is to reiterate the following: a. The focus on exhibiting student learning will be to keep the content precise, appropriate, accurate and student driven. In this regard, please be reasonable in setting targets. b. Ideally, all work on displays should begin by Monday, 16th April, 2012.

All research work is to be corrected by the mentors for the following points: a. Simplified and rewritten by the student b. Presented in a coherent, reader friendly way, including the selection of colour and choice of fonts c. All websites to be acknowledged and noted in the Bibliography sheet d. All printouts of coloured material to be routed **only through me**, as I am organising it through the Admin
 * 2. ** ** Research and Presentation: **

a. Assessments are to be monitored by the Mentors and supported where students find it difficult to plan. b. Records of Prior Knowledge Assessment, at least 2 Formative Assessments and the Summative Assessment to be maintained by each mentor and shared with the HRTs. c. The final summative comments could be shared within a week of staging the Exhibition, i.e. 4th May.
