... what, what else would they be doing?
2:21
The most, the biggest thing we do in class, uh, is, uh, teaching practice we call it.
2:28
Uh, it happens on Monday afternoons for first years and Wednesday afternoons for second years.
2:34
And, uh, during those sessions, students give prepared talks in front of their peers and get in-class feedback from their peers and tutors.
2:46
Uh, that is by far the scariest thing that happens in Cornhill.
2:51
Everybody's nervous about that when they start.
2:53
But interestingly, uh, when we get feedback at the end of the course, that is the thing that people thought was best about the course, that they got feedback in preparing talks to give them and giving them.

15:42

15:48
You can cover a lot more ground.
15:50
You can cover it quicker, more intensely.
15:52
There's lots of ups and that.

I

Thank you.
66:23
Please do sit down and let's pray together.
66:30
Some words from Psalm 115.
66:35
Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory.
66:42
For the sake of your steadfast love and your faithfulness, why should the nation say, where is their God? Father in heaven, we thank you that we can come to you in the name of your son this evening and present our thanks to you.
67:00
We thank you for your many kindnesses towards us.
67:04
And thank you that we can present our request to you.
