@ling_chen_ My take: a) focus more on process (eg: how to build a strong outline, schedule, how much time will you write per day, etc.) than content especially at the start, and b) use more questions than comments to help the students land on what they're trying to say.

5/5 Xi's most tangible statement was that China to strictly control coal now, strictly limit coal growth during the 14FYP (2020-2025), & ramp coal down during the 15FYP (2025-2030). We'll see; the level at which that growth ends and peaking happens is the essential business here.
4/5 Xi doubled-down on the importance of common but differentiated commitments b/t developed and developing countries - a division many would like to see erode
