Dear 11 HL,
What lies below is your work to be done in class on November 13th in my (planned) absence. Do not do it beforehand. Go through the videos and add the relevant notes to your case study which you have already started. Please pause the video as it goes along to make sure everyone gets the proper notes down. I fully expect this to be finished by the following class, so if you do not finish in class, please finish for homework.
The PDF of the lesson can be found here:
