Missing a session… Pre-Release Part 3

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

It is that time of year when people are disappearing and reappearing, this is just a fact of life at the moment.

I have now uploaded the Pre-Release PowerPoint 3. This includes our thoughts about the pattern of distribution shown by the group’s clothing, the reasons for China’s dominance, the conditions faced by workers in Bangladesh, reasons why the wealth from manufacturing is not spread and potential ideas for improving workers’ conditions.

I must urge people to look through the resources if you are unable to attend a session. You must be very familiar and confident with the resources and the concepts behind them before the exam. :)

Also remember that if you miss a session you can access any of the resources we use here.

Welcome back, a bit warm this afternoon, but very pleased with your progress with the examination material, some interesting discussions.  ;)  I’ve now added the PowerPoint we used in lesson to the pre-release material page. You should use this again in the run up to the exam, long with your notes to help you revise.
