The lectures were in week 7 and 12 and were upon 1) climate change and 2) peak oil and its effects respectively. I had an agreement with Graham that my week 12 lecture would be transfered to week 7 for 2009 so consolidating my teaching in this module. I also conveyed the information last year that the practical/seminar I give in week 7 is not suitable for assessment, yet this coming year students are still informed that it is. Now I find that, without any consultation, my second lecture (and probably the most important one) has been eliminated and the assessment still incorporates my practical/seminar. Can you confirm this and give me the rationale behind your decision?

Attached you will find the updated course manual for the semester. It is all but unchanged from last year. So please CHECK THE DATES AND THE SCHEDULE AND CONFIRM that you are able to contribute in the same manner as last year. Please let me know as soon as possible if there are any changes.
