Dear Matthew,
Sounds interesting ... however, What sort of guidance do you give the
students about electronic submission ? Are things zipped ? Do they
include a standard UWE front page, do they only receive confirmation
online or are they emailed ? what about if they don't hand it all in ...
is it there responsibility ? Are the guides available online ?
Cheers
Andy
