Sub-steps involved: Research future lectures, or text book or recommended readings to find more about your chosen topic Research other sources if you cant find much in (1) Your reading findings about the theories, concepts & facts of the topic should give some ideas to re-engineer what Qs you can ask and potentially use these reading findings to frame your answers’ outlines. The answer can be somewhat theory/academe based – that is fine as you may not be able to get all relevant info about the case’s situation relating to the topic and Qs chosen. Note: If you have not chosen the topic on Week 2-4: Country assessment and MoE selection (default option) – no need to do country assessment and confuse yourself, as many had done so in class . Just ask Q related to the chosen week’s subject matters. • Which topic (ie week & activity) are you choosing?
