Stimulus Release

What happens on this day?

One week before the writing week we will release the writing stimulus. It is important that all students write to the same stimulus so that everyone will be compared fairly. On this day we will email you and let you know that the stimulus is ready. Please don't prepare the students in any way as it is important that the complete the task in controlled conditions without access to any support. In this way we ensure that all writing is independent.
