Good job 208!
... or at least majority of you. Despite requiring a few "reminders" along the way, most of you handed in the powerpoint slides, notes and Q&A with the exception of Group 8. Of course the quality of the work is something separate. We shall address that issue later. In any case, the fruits of your labour shall be showcased today :)
Attached below are the hard work of all the groups. Do spend time to look through your classmates' work and take down as much notes as you can on each topic. There will be a follow up activity tomorrow in relation to these slides and you will need the notes that you have made today to help you.
Without further adue, let's start! :)
