Collecting stamps
The collecting of postage stamps is an hobby that interests people of all ages and all walks of life. The more valuable stamp in the world is the one-cent British Guiana magenta of 1856. Only one copy is known to exist; it is valued at about $50,000. There are another stamps worth several thousands dollars while many others are valued at hundreds of dollars. Yet most stamps are very expensive. There are hundreds of stamps worth a few dollars and many more hundreds that you may buy with a few cents. So you see that stamp collecting is not merely a rich man’s hobby. Each stamp collection finds his own stamps fascinating, no matter how much or how many money he spends on them. The reason is that there is always a story behind postage stamps. The countries in the world use them as a mean of telling the world about their industries, their culture, and their great men. They also use stamps to celebrate importance events in his history. So while a stamp collector is enjoying hobby, he is also storing up knowledge about all kinds of things from every corner of the globe.

SECTION 2       Questions 1 - 5
Dr. Thomas
Ok, I’d like to take a moment now to talk about the assessment requirements for this semester.  Firstly as you can clearly see, on your handout, there are 4 assessments this semester – an oral report, an essay and two exams.  They are weighted 20% each for the oral report and the essay and the remaining 60% as you can see is divided equally between the two exams.  Yes, John.
Student 1 (Man)
Yes, Dr. Thomas, regarding the oral report, can we present this with a partner or must they be handled individually?
Dr Thomas
In the past, oral reports have been researched and presented in small groups of 2 or 3.  This year, we’ve decided to try them singly and see how they go.  We’re certainly not locked into any one wayall we do ask is that you use PowerPoint for your presentations.  The university has all the equipment you will need to deliver the presentation, further details can be found at the Library Yes, young lady at the back
Student 2 (woman)
I noticed that there is no word limit given on the essay.  Can you give us some more details about that? 
Dr Thomas
Actually, the limit is listedit just happens to be on the next pagea technical problem with the printing!  Now you’ll be pleased to hear that we’ve reduced the word count on the essay from last year.  Before it was 2000 now it’s fifteen hundredso that gives you some more time for your oral report, right! 
Student 2
Can you give us any indication of the topics that will be available
Dr T
Ahh, not at the moment.  
Student 2
None at all?  I’d like to make an early start on it if I can..
Dr T
I’ll have them ready by the next lecture.  I can say that they will be all to do with the units studied so if you consult your course readings, you will be able to get a general idea.
