Notes.


I have asked Martin Symons ( Head of School ) to draft a letter / policy document regarding the responsible and appropriate use of social media - in p[articular, anything associated with or branded as the course.n In a professional environment - abuse, or misuse, of social media platforms may result in dismissal, and in a college context - removal from the course. I also suggest that you make groups 'closed' - and not allow people from outside the course to view, follow or post. That is just common sense.


I have marked the work that you presented to Gary Neil ( FDA2 ) - it will also be cross marked by Vanessa. I was very disappointed by some of the poor standard of presentation - it seems that some of you failed to grasp that 15% was dedicated to presentation quality - and simple re-presented the same work - costing you the extra grade. I cannot understand the logic in this - you were given a huge amount of time and very clear guidance here.


John Reynolds was very disappointed at the poor turnout on Thursday - however - the first years made good use of him. I would remind you that you are contracted to a full time course, 5 days per week, 32 weeks per year.


Jackie Attwoold would like to thank the first years for cleaning up the print room - it is much appreciated.
