How to find me!

My office is situated on the second floor, in room 2023.


My e mail address is Mark.Hetherington@nclan.ac.uk


For some reason I have a telephone, but no extension number. Communication isn't always effective it would seem!

UPDATE (3/9/18) - I now have a telephone number! I am extension 2638, direct dial is (01698) 232638.



Welcome to Communication (NC) with Mark

Hello everybody and welcome to your blog!


You will be studying NC Communication (FA1W 12) with me. I'm sure we will have a few laughs over the course of the year, share experiences and I aim to learn from you guys too!

The course attempts to develop your communication skills in reading, writing, talking and listening.

There are quite a few assessments, but all of them come back to these basic, but important, skills.

Furthermore, given the nature of the course, and the high calibre of the student, we like to stretch you a bit! The first session will be about getting to know you, defining communication and giving an overview to the programme of study.


You are all in safe hands though as I write all the assessments for the Unit, I have worked with SWAP Access students for many years and will always work WITH you. This commitment must be two way though. That is how we will be in a good place to achieve the outcomes.


I hope you enjoy the year working with me, the highs, the lows, the feedback, the class activities. June isn't THAT far away really is it?


Come and say hello and let me know how your first week has been so far! The blog is for all of us.


Mark
