The tutors:

When you are preparing your presentation, it is suggested that you do not leave it until the last weekend. Instead, you should plan for gradual progress. First read the thesis at least cursorily. Make a list of and find all the material that is relevant to your topic. Read your assigned thesis carefully, read and evaluate the other material. You should aim at finishing this stage by the early March. You will then use a few days to make your presentation and write the short evaluation statement. Discuss with your tutor. You should be able to submit your presentation to your opponents and to prof Kantola by ??. You will then use the remaining time to work on the other theses.
