VIVIEN: Thanks. Um Mr Yardley has asked me to describe to you the project I did as a student teacher at a Q31 secondary school in London. I was at this school for six weeks and I taught a variety of subjects to a class of Q32 14 year old pupils. The project I chose to do was a hat making project and I think this project could easily be adapted to suit any age. So, to explain the project. After we’d done the research, we went back to the classroom to make two basic hat shapes using rolls of old wallpaper. We each made, first of all a conical hat by um well if I show you now cutting out a circle and then making one cut up to the center and then um Q33 overlapping the cut like this a conical hat that sits on your head. The other hat we made was a little more complicated um first of all we cut out a circle again like this then you need a long piece with flaps on it I’ve already made that bit which I have here you bend the flaps over and stick them with glue or prittstick to the Q34 underside of the circle like this. Again I’ve prepared this so that I don’t get glue everywhere the pupils do of course so you need plenty of covers for the table. And there you have a pillbox hat as in pill and box. Now variations and combinations of these two hat shapes form the basis of the pupils final designs.

The next stage of the project was the design phase and this involved first of all using their pages of research to draw a design of their hat Q35 on paper. That’s the easy part. They then had to translate their two-dimensional design into a form to fit their head. I encouraged them to make a small scale Q36 three dimensional hat first so that they could experiment with how to achieve the form they required and I impose certain constraints on them to keep things simple. For example they had to use paper not card. Paper is more pliable and easier to handle. They also had to limit their colors to Q37 white, gray or brown shades of paper which reflected the colors of the buildings they were using as a model for their hats and they had to make sure their glue didn’t show! Well, it was very enjoyable and just to give you an idea of what they produced, I brought along three hats to show you. This one here is based on a circular stairway in an old building in London. It uses Q38 three pillbox hats one on top of the other. This was designed by Theresa. Here’s another one that has a simple strip going round the base of the hat but has then gone on to add strips of paper that come out from the base and that meet at the top of the hat rather Q39 like a crown making a fairly tall hat. This was made by Muriel. And lastly there’s a combination of the pill box or single strip around the base and then the Q40 conical hat shape on top to form a castle turret. This was made by Febrice, and there are many more that i could have brought.

IELTS LISTENING – Matching the person to the job S50T3

IELTS LISTENING Matching the person to the job IELTS LISTENING listening practice test has 10 questions.

TUTOR: Good morning. So, we’ve looked at various aspects of Q21 staff selection this term and uh I think by now you should be beginning to see how much more there is to it than just putting applicants through a short interview or asking the ‘right’ questions. So I think you should be ready for today’s tutorial on ‘matching the person to the job’.

 
We’re going to talk today about the importance of choosing that all-round ‘right’ person.
 
MURIEL: Right. So we have to put ourselves into the role of the manager or supervisor?

TUTOR: Yes. And then we’re going to imagine how different applicants would fit into the team or group they have to work with we’ll look at some examples later.
MURIEL: It’s just theoretical at the moment…
 

MURIEL: I mean, it’s human nature to lie, isn’t it?

 

TUTOR: Well, that’s the point. Apparently it isn’t. These tests are compiled by Q29 experts and they believe that the answers can provide a few simple indicators as to roughly the type of person that you are that people will generally be truthful in that situation.

IELTS LISTENING – Helpline Details S50T2

 
IELTS LISTENING Helpline Details listening practice test has 10 questions.
Hello, everybody and welcome to this informal meeting about the University Helpline. The Helpline was set up 10 years ago by the Students Union and it aims to provide new students to the university with a service that they can use if they need information about practical areas of student life that they’re unfamiliar with.
 

Let me give you some examples of the type of help we can offer. We can provide information on financial matters; for example, you may feel that your grant is insufficient to see you through college life or you may have some queries regarding the Q11 tuition fees you’re paying if you’re an overseas student. In both cases, the Helpline would be able to go through things with you and see what the outcome might be.

Another area we can help with is what we generally term the ‘Q12 domestic area‘ things such as childcare and the availability of nursery provision, for example, come under this. Then there’s ‘academic’ issues that may arise while you’re in the early stages of your course that you may not know what to do about. You may wish to know more about Q13 essay deadlines, for example, or how to use the library there are all kinds of questions you will find yourself asking and not knowing where to get quick answers from. The helpline would be able to provide these. The last example I’ve given here is simply termed ‘social’ and yes, there is a lot of Q14 social life here! But you may have a particular interest you wish to pursue or you may wish to participate in Q15 outings or trips if you don’t know many people at the moment.

Let me give you some details so that you know where to go and who to see if you want to pay us a visit. Generally you’ll see our Helpline officer Jackie Q16 Kouachi that’s K-O-U-A-C-H-I. Jackie is a full-time employee of the Student Union and she works in the Student Welfare office that’s the office that deals with all matters related to student welfare and it’s located at 13 Marshall Road.

I have some maps here for those of you who haven’t been there yet. If you wish to ring the office the number is 326 99 40. That’s Q17 3269940. The office is open between 9.30 and 6 o’clock on weekdays and from Q18 10 to 4 on Saturdays and there’ll be somebody there usually Jackie or myself between those times. If you want to make Q19 an appointment you can phone or call at the office in person. Please note that it may not be possible for anyone to see you straight away particularly if it’s a busy time lunchtime for example and you may have to go on the Q20 waiting list and then come back later.
