dear all,
I hope you had a good break. we have four weeks to go, then a very short study break.
This week or next I'll talk in some detail about the folios and submission etc, and post here, so if you have small questions, hold on till then (and read the course guide first please).
Questions about topics and other issues that could delay your work can be done by email (j.sinclair2@pgrad.unimelb.edu.au) or after class (Tuesday) or preferably before class on Wednesday (I'll try to be there from 9.45, and if you contact me first I can meet from 9.15 on).
I'll also be available for meetings in the study break (first week of June), probably in class times (say 9.30-11.30 Tuesday/Wed) but I have to confirm the exact times.
What I will say at this point is:
the margin for word count is strictly 10% up or down. I won't read over that length, and I'll mark down for less.
I can't read drafts. Use the workshopping for that, but I will answer specific questions about how to get around issues YOU have identified in your work.
I have no flexibility on submission dates because it's end of semester and the results need to be sent to University Central or somesuch office; if you need special consideration there's a process for that, but that allows for lower standards of work, not lateness.
Monday June 6 is it.
----------------------
This week we'll be deciding who workshops when over the next four weeks, so have a think about that. I hope you've managed to do the reading and the short Christos Tsiolkas piece I handed out.
cheers,
Jenny
