= Grading Concerns = ====I realize that several students are concerned about Final Grades. The Wiki page evaluation concerns only the individual page evaluations and DOES NOT include any additional content provided for extra marks. Time does not permit any revision and regrading to this evaluation. Those intending to continue their studies overseas should realize the degree of academic performance required of Western undergrad and graduate coursework.====

Additional writing and western university preparatory advice can be obtained through Beataedu.com, where I can be subsequently contacted.

//__One practical tip about when to use Wikispace __//
====Due to China's internet restrictions, most foreign-based websites and searching engines become annoyingly slow. And we always complain about either we can't log in or we can't edit the page. In addition, the majority of us live in dorms and use campus network which is comparatively slow. Therefore after one month trying, I find out if you edit your work in the small hours when everyone else is off-line, the website is fine.====
