How do I take part? If you're a member of HELPS you don't heed to do
anything - you're already registered for the conference. If you're not
already a member join the helps list by going to
www.jiscmail.ac.uk/lists/HELPS.html. The seminar will be chaired by Kate
Fernie will circulate each paper and summarise the session at the end of
the week. To comment on a paper all that you need to do is simply reply to
the list after reading a paper or someone else's comment. It's often a good
idea to copy (in quotes) the part of a paper that you're commenting on
rather than the entire paper - this helps people to follow the thread.
