Week Two: An overview of evaluation and quality - Activity two

Winter fog by bronwynannh

How is this for a photo from a basic cellphone? It takes a pretty good pic and certainly shows you what it has been like around my place lately. I thought this would be a good starting point to talk about quality and the reasons we need to evaluate. This week it is a good idea to start checking out the  Exemplars of previous students. I expect to have a list of potential projects available later in the week. If you have ideas already, please email me as soon as possible to discuss them.
