3. 2: Overall, the day was... Note that multiple items could be selected
4. 3:The “Fair” during the lunch break was... Note that multiple items could be selected A substantial number of people wrote in “What fair?” never having found it.
5. 4: Registration... Note that multiple items could be selected (but rarely were).
6. 5: the Course Overview The common write-in comment was that this had already been covered in the Centres
7. 6: the Library induction The write-ins suggest that more local students found it more useful, but the information about on-line journals was commented on favourably
8. 7: the Low-Down (from 2 nd -year students) Very high approval ratings with appreciative write-ins such as “Really excellent” and “The best part”. Some people, on the other hand, did not seem to get that this is the student perspective rather than yet another course intro...
9. 8: Referencing... The write-ins expressed mixed views suggesting that some students don’t really see what all the fuss is about, while others feel that they know it all from degree studies—and some people couldn’t hear.
10. 9: BREO briefing Most of the write-ins concentrated on the need for more practice, while feeling BREO had been finally de-mystified.
11. 10: setting up the Interest Groups Note that multiple items could be selected. This was the first time we tried selecting the groups on the day: it seems to have broadly worked...
12. 11: The Interest Group task... Few write-ins: just a few saying it is too early to tell, but the 40% “potentially useful” verdict is promising Note that multiple items could be selected.
13. 12: the first meeting Very common write-in; nowhere near enough time!
