January 2020 MotM & PotM Awards!

[sweetiepi]

I don't know about you, but I felt like January was a super long month! I'm keen to see what the rest of the year holds for future MotM and PotM winners for 2020. However first, let's recap the superstar winners of 2019:




And now, please provide a drumroll and an even louder round of applause for...

distorm!

distorm has been on the forum on September 2017, and has recently made stellar posts in the Marking and Feedback board with amazingly detailed posts such as here, here, and here!

Albeit they only have a small post count, it is their quality that counts, and I (and others) appreciate the hard work they have done to provide such detailed feedback! I'm excited to see what other contrtibutions they make over the year!

A deserving MotM- congratulations!

THE VIC WINNER FOR JANUARY IS...

ArtyDreams!

ArtyDreams has been on the forum for just a touch over a year now- registering in January 2019. Their enthusiasm for participating in the Science Games (see example here), as well as consistently posting encouragement on both journey (example) and accountability journals (example),  as well as providing methods tips (just one example), truly fitting in with the vibe on the forums.

Congrats on MotM, it is well deserved, and we’re so keen to see what comes next!

Further to recognising our MotM, here are some of the other outstanding contributions to ATAR Notes this month. As always, we've almost definitely missed things, so give a shout out below if you really want to recognise something special from this month!
