The last lesson gives details about the course assignment.
I'll also give details here.
The project is based on the case studies (you can use them as a template if you want) and you will produce a 1-page document.
Imagine you're going somewhere for business or communicating with someone. This can be a real scenario if it makes this easier for you.
Go through the process of working out what you need to do and research.
You can base this on yourself or on an imaginary person - whatever you prefer.
Decide which strategies you will use, what you need to know and your desired outcome.
When you're ready, please upload the document/information and I'll review it and give you feedback.
