Most prolific reading list creator
Christian Enemark ()
Christian has done a lot of independent work on his reading lists across 5 modules. 听All lists have a good clear structure with a mix of resources. 听PAIR2033/3041 and PAIR2034/3042 could be potentially linked as single lists as they appear to be identical lists with the same module title. 听One recommended enhancement: include thematic subtitle within main weekly section title in order for themes to appear within the Table of Contents for easier student navigation.听
