Groups must organise their own research, decide on priorities and come up with a presentation conceived and designed by themselves.
Assessment will be on the basis of the presentation (20%) and an essay of 2,500 words (80%).
Essay topics will be given out during the semester and will be on subjects discussed in class, including: Scottish literature, travel writing, history, politics, society, arts and popular culture.
