This week, we mostly focused on finishing our final report. This required quite a bit of work, as I had to re-read some old sources, find and read some new sources, and generally add to or reword what we already had. The spreadsheet tracking our sources, as well as our group Zotero folder, was very useful at this stage because it made it very easy to re-find sources that I needed. Moreover, the way I tend to take my research notes is by copying down quotes from the sources. This meant that, when going back over the sources I had already read, it was very easy to find what I needed in the sources because I could just find it on my laptop automatically. 

Unfortunately, we didn't have any leadership or research methdos sessions this week. This meant that we only had to come in on Monday and Friday, so I spent most of the week working independently based on what our team wanted to get done. However, on Monday we were told about how the LiA would work. It's quite exciting to think about spending part of next summer somewhere abroad, and I've already started to look at potential places to go or projects to work on.
