geology ppl, help me explain landforms

Do you have a structure you need to follow and like a checklist for criteria?

Yes!

Translated:
For each landform we've been given I need to explain this:
* the processes and background factors that are present for these landforms to exist
* a description of the landforms - how do they look and why do they look like that
* for the meandering river I also need to do some math (sinusitet or something) but i'll figure that later
* for the delta, fluvial fan and talus cone I have to descripe what I expect the physical functions to the sediments (size, shape, etc) to be. what can these functions say about the processes involved in shaping these landshapes?

I usually start by putting all the headlines and the table of contents in the word document and then slowly write paragraphs and somehow connect them

I'm drafting it all in a word now but in the end they are going into storymaps
i just gotta make sure my writing and info isn't wrong, sucks and actually is done bc this goes on my exam grade like 25% or something

Sounds like a plan

How many ECTS do you get for this course?

Usually you have to do 30ects per semester at my uni and courses range from 3 to 10 ECTS most of the time, how many do you have to do in total per semester?

The teacher offered me a single room at the hotel we're gonna sleep at, which is nice. Bc she said it is better if I am there. it gives me a break at the end of the day but none of my i'm gonna lowkey starve myself all day is solved but idk like i didn't give her any details about what I was struggling with. I sorta wanna ask for the food menu but currently I'm too scared. I can take some hours to think about it, like if I don't answer today I just have to answer over the weekend. also we're gonna be like 70+ people, social anxiety hell.

and she gave me a 1 week extension on my paper, with room to ask for more.
