Hi All,

Thank you each so much for agreeing to help with the presentations at Pincher SAR's 2016 SAR Basics course.

The sections you've agreed to help with are shown on the schedule. Each section has a presenter's name beside it as well as how long the section is, and the expected start time. See:

For most sections we have a fairly well-developed lesson plan. Click on the name of the section and it will take you to the lesson plan. Some of the content (e.g. the slides from ERI Canada) are copyright and so you'll need to log in to see or download them.

All of you have accounts on our wiki from previous times you've helped out. If it's been a while since you've logged in, read the help:

If you need any help, let me know.

Much of the material is stuff you or other presenters developed for previous runnings of the course. If you make improvements, please upload them or e-mail them to me to do so.

Each section includes a "Question Bank". These are questions that the students will be randomly asked in a written review the next day. The same questions are used in a "monitor" which is given to the student at the start of the day before a presentation, to help assess whether the students have absorbed the material. Please review the Question Bank. If there's questions you'd like to add, go ahead and do so, or let me know. Same if there's questions you'd like to change or delete.

At the classroom we'll have the usual supplies: computer projector, audio, DVD player, flip chart, even an overhead projector for somethings that are easier to illustrate with transparencies. There is no Internet in the classroom. I'll bring my laptop and have on it all the "standard" slides we use. It doesn't have a remove control. If you want to use any other material, please let me know several days in advance, or better yet bring your own laptop. The projector works with both HDMI and the older computer video cable. Sound has to be from audio out of your laptop.

If you want more material for your section than what is on the wiki, let me know and I'll help you out.

You'll see that the schedule has some long stretches of sitting, which isn't good for adult learners. If you can spice your section up with something that gets them moving, please do so.

Thanks again for all your help. It looks to be a great course.
