5 alive

Does anyone remember that? I think it was a drink? (Don't mind me, i'm approaching my 5th dry week and the lack of Friday afternoon alchohol is clearly affecting me!) Anyway...

My five things i'm proud of for the week (plus a bonus one!)

1. Hosting the Russian delegation (see last entry)


2. Writing an academic debate


3. Attending useful Stepping it Up conference hosted by Social Enterprise London (note to self must write that up!)


4. Set up an account at Donklephant.com expect blog posts soon!


5. Finished revision Do's and Don'ts for the professors leaflets


6. Took photos of Dave in his running gear for the Sailor's society 9the charity he's running the marathon for)* maybe i'll post those up...:p
   
   

And big drum roll please, Judith's first five:

1. Composing a lesson plan to teach school students how to debate (ongoing)


2. Researching the benefits of debating (ongoing)


3. Going to the Social Entreprise Exhibition in Angel, where I got to learn new things and 'network'.


4. Compiling packages of marketing materials about Revisewise to send to universities/colleges.


5. Phoning marketing departments at colleges and universities to tell them about Revisewise

Keep them going, 'cos Pete's joined us too and here's his first five:

1. Started my new job with Debatewise, definitely the biggest achievement of the week.


2. Started writing a pitch on WODC to be sent off to debating societies.


3. Working with Alex on creating a storyboard for how to use the website.


4. Posted 88 letters to various universities containing the revisewise information. Met a right character of a wee boy while we where there which was funny. He did make fun of my current acne problem which was less good L. Kids can be cruel!


5. Went to a meeting about the BASH buildings recycling policies, different plastics have different gradings don’t you know?

DC's

1. Got the Charity Commission form off to the Charity Commission.  Three months in the doing, 70-odd pages of material.  Done.  At blooming last.


2. Got the Twitter app styled, it’s still a bit broken but I’ve done all I need to


3. Got a report on idebate.org out to Idebate on time


4. Got a new idea for a British Online Debating Championship, should probably get the World one going first though


5. Got Revisewise up. 

Alex's Somewhat late... sorry

1. finally got off the marketing materials... hopefully just in time, most unis and colleges break up for easter in the next week or so


2. did more research and gave more ideas to betony for the article, dont think they were ultimatly needed though :(


3. been writing debates for revisewise, we need it too have examples or no one will use it, I fear some of mine are rather long and make better examples for essay preperation than revision! (no surprise I got the debates out of essays as I no longer have my revision notes!)


4. starting storyboards for WODC, trying to make them as interchangeable as possible so starting with a generic 'how to' for debatewise and will then fill in bits that are different later


5. started a debate on the war on drugs in mexico (keeping up to date basing it on comments made that day by Clinton) and went rather overboard on the no arguments about democracy (sorry Judith!)
