Value of peer-assessment
Reading through your proposal has given me
insight into some of the shortfalls and
weaknesses I have in mine.
… otherwise a nice read. I learnt a couple of things from
the paper that I will apply when writing mine.
Excellent second draft, …I lower my head in shame :-(
Felt a little unqualified to provide feedback, but hey I
tried. Hope there is something you can use.

Today I have a session with them They were amazed with the Research Metaphor "Research is Complex Puzzle", and I am taking them through the process and adopting some of your presentations.
