This is your panel&#8217;s opportunity to assess your scientific writing, and therefore should make a good impression.<\/li>\n<li>Alongside the report you will complete and submit \u00a0an \u2018annual report from student for progress panel\u2019 form on ePortfolio.<\/li>\n<li>For your first and intermediate progress reviews you will make a 10\u201315 minute presentation detailing your aims, progress against the milestones in your Project Approval document, results to date and plans for future work. You can present using a laptop computer if preferred. The presentation is not required for the final review.<\/li>\n<li>You will need to show the assessors your laboratory book(s), research journal(s) or research diary(s). You should also bring evidence of your Self-Assessment and Personal Development Plan (E) and List of Training Courses Attended (G) from your research training ePortfolio.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 15\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<h3>What else should I know?<\/h3>\n<p>The annual progression review is equivalent in status to a board of examiners.
