Following requests from University staff, summer Power Hours for Staff and Research Post-Graduates will be offered between 12.15-13.15 on the following dates. Sessions will take place in the Anderson Room in the Cameron Smail Library. No need to book in advance.
These sessions are the same as those that are offered to students during the academic year. This is an opportunity for staff to find out what it is that these tutors tell your students.
Further courses may yet be added once colleagues return from vacation.
