Hello Sandra,
I don't think it would be bombarding - you could contextualise the powerpoint, talk about how you use policy writing with your students and then invite anyone who is interested to contact you. I'd like a copy, by the way!
Best,
John

Thanks for that!
I use policy analysis with Education students - and have a power point
that explores different ways of approaching policy that I can share -
but I don't want to bombard the list with it.
Best,

I have been scouring the mounds of documents on my desktop for some time in hope of finding again an excellent article published in a political science journal by two political scientists in a London university and passed on to me by a helpful student about using policy briefs as a teaching tool at undergraduate level.
