Revised office hours

Since my office is now closed. I will not be going to the university or having office hours except by appointment (this might change if the institute has a place for office hours in block A).

At present, I'm available for consultation by appointment only.

To see me, write me by email. Send the email no later than 21.00 the night before you want to meet.

If you don't have my address then leave your address as a comment and I'll write you (and delete your comment after doing so).

Office hours in summer

I plan on being in the institute every day from 12.30 - 13.30 (times very approximate) in 209b until they won't let me in anymore because of the rennovations. Not sure how long that will be.

After that, you will have to make an appointment by email (if you can't find it, they have it in the secretary's office).

Class schedule for this week (June 7, 8 2011)

Okay, regular class on Tuesday (13.30 325b) after which I will be available for office hours.

Since not a single student was ready with their presentations last Wednesday, I'm forced to cancel class on this Wednesday (I warned you....). Therefore I will have earlier office hours on Wednesday 13.30-15.15 (209b) and my usual office hours are cancelled. I will still happily go over outlines in office hours.

For those of who won't have a chance to give your presentations in class you might want to try the extra practice sessions of Ms Gabster (previous post on this very blog). You might also want to arrange practice sessions on your own. The audience feedback the last time we had presentations in class was pretty good so if you can organize yourselves you can help each other.

update: you can also try your luck during the Tuesday class, though regular Tuesday students have priority.

As for signatures. My newest decision:

If you've finished all your writing assignments and done both presentations in class then I can give you your signature tomorrow or Wednesday (only during office hours). Otherwise you may bring your index to the oral final on Tuesday/Wednesday.

If you haven't done your academic presentation in class then you'll have to wait until after the exam is finished. If you have any questions then see me in office hours.

Practice for the Orals

Optional extra practice for the oral exams will be held on Tuesday, June 7, at 5 PM and Wednesday, June 8, at 3:30 PM. Meet at 214 and we'll move to another room if needed. This practice is open to all 2nd year students (both teachers), so order will be simply first come, first served.

Additionally, my regular office hours on Tuesday will be postponed for about an hour (starting at 4pm) and regular hours on Wednesday will be canceled, but like Mr. Farris, I will have office hours during the usual Wednesday class time.

Tuesday Review of Writing Formats

Written exam next Monday, May 30. If your knowledge of the writing formats we've discussed this year is rusty, come to Novum Tuesday evening for a review. Meet at my office, 214 B, at about 5pm on Tuesday 24 May, and we'll find an open classroom based on how many people show up.

Monday hours

Academic presentations continue this week, and Liz will actually have extra "office hours" on Monday. I'm covering Mrs. Parthemore's 3rd year classes on Monday, so between classes I'll probably still be in the classroom or nearby. If you still need approval for your academic presentation, you can find me 10-11:30 on Monday in 325 in addition to the usual hours in 214.

Extra office hours

I will be having even more office hours this Monday (12.00-13.30 - time approximate). Look for me first in the usual place (209b)
