    Very thorough notes - well done! The only thing I may suggest is adding in more visuals - VISual material is very useful at cuing your memory when you reVISe! This could be images, videos or even links to resources used in your research. Maybe even use web 2.0 tools to soup up your presentation.

    Please add a comment below reflecting on my comments and explaining any changes you have made.
