Are viva voces presented like a speech??? I have mine on Monday and I'm not too sure as to how I should go about presenting it.

Definitely can work :)

I guess you could say they are like a speech, but they definitely aren't a speech. Think of it more as an open dialogue, a conversation. You have the ability to direct the viva voce to a certain extent. In my E2 viva, my teacher started with an opening question, and I responded by explaining how I've explored whatever she mentioned in my major work, and then I would make sure I was directing it in a way that I finished the response angling at a point she wanted to talk about. But for the most part, it was pretty much she asks, I respond, she asks, I respond.

Hi,

I have my report due sometime after the Easter break and one of the guidelines we need to answer is why we choose our title. While I finished a rough draft of my work, I have no clue what my title should be. Any ideas on how anyone else came with their own?

Hey!

I wonder if your teacher would accept that you haven't got a title yet? I think mine would have because with good reasoning, I was still changing direction of my piece and wasn't ready to title.

If not, perhaps this is a good prompt to begin thinking about your title? I thought of my favourite book or story titles and tried to work out what I liked in them. As it turns out, there wasn't really a common denominator. I ended up going for alliteration with layering of meaning. But I went through a lot of titles before I got there!

Hello,

I honestly just went through goodreads for inspiration. They have endless pages of quotes written by very good writers. Hope it helps, also do you have any idea on how to structure your report? Because I don't.
