    Help!!

    I don't think there's any limitation on double majoring in two different faculties through an arts degree e.g. something in commerce and something in arts, but anything you major in has to be offered by the degree. I looked it up and biology doesn't seem to be offered as a major as part of an...

    Essay help? Communities Influence Our Sense Of Self.

    Granted I never did CAFS but if it's anything like Society and Culture then incorporating both personal experiences as part of your community and general experiences regarding your community supported by external sources as mentioned such as newspapers etc would be best. I would think it wants...

    Stupidest thing you've been punished for?

    Stupidest thing I think was once my Year 9 maths teacher randomly asked me if I'd covered my maths book when she saw me in the corridor. I said no and she gave a creepy smirk and said detention. I didn't go though, it seemed too incredibly stupid to respond to. She also yelled at me another time...

    a good graduation song?

    My grade did that last year, it worked quite well actually even though at first I thought it'd be too cliche. I recommend a slowish song like this one because you actually have a chance to hear what people are saying rather than a bunch of muffled words and crying. I personally wanted at the...

    ARGH!!!!PIP focus question

    What is your unique focus on your research area/what would make your reserach more useful/different insights to other case studies in the dielf? If you have done some research it may help refine your focus even more such as looking at a particular period history like over two or three...

    methodlogies :S

    A survey is essentially anything that uses a representative sample making generalisations upon a larger population. It is broader than a methodology and can take the form of an interview, questionnaire etc. So a questionnaire is a written type of survey. In everyday language survey and...

    help wid choosing topic for pip !

    You should be the one to make the final choice on your PIP topic, on account of you have to live through it for the next few months - it's for your own benefit:P I think role of status and class would be too technical though, and nature vs. nurture seems to be getting a tad on the awkward...

    Chapter heading advice?

    Firstly yeah, your should try and cut down the length of your headings, you have the whole rest of each chapter to explain what you mean:) but also, how have you incorporated a predominance of primary research into your topic? It seems a tad secondary focussed from this brief look : o

    Need urgent pip help please

    I'm pretty darn sure your teacher is mistaken. I just read over the new support documents for Society and Culture and have not seen any limitations for what constitutes a cross cultural component. It didn't seem to affect my mark at all last year when I used generation as a cross cultural...

    Titling the PIP

    You could try exploring Tiger Woods puns since that's especially applicable this year:P Though obviously if you didn't mention him in your pip I'd avoid that. Can't think of anything without a slightly clearer explanation of what you're doing except for stuff like Running Into Fame, Survival of...

    Hot chicks and dicks

    I highly doubt random people from the internet and their parents are going to be prepared to do a focus group lol, for whatever reason:P If you said you already have 4 people for each focus group, that is definitely enough. You only need 3-6 people for a focus group, and the more people you...

    Is this PIP topic to broad?

    At the moment I feel it's a bit confusing what exactly you'd be looking at, and it might be a bit too broad and difficult to do in one year. What "effects" are you planning to investigate? And how are you seeking to show how high school develops future skills? If you really wanted I would...

    Family

    I was pretty lucky in the sense that my teacher ended up collating significant articles from the news to signify legal updates. If you're generally up to date I don't think a subscription is necessary and you can just look up articles online, though if you do I'd recommend the SMH since that's...

    Buy and Sell thread

    Re: Buy and Sell thread - Sem 1 and 2 Did you end up already buying this? Also, who's it by? Anita Woolfolk and Kay Margetts? I have some random textbook I bought last year called that for $10 from a random second hand bookshop 2007 version. If it's similar to the one you need, you can have...

    Do the teachers in your school understnad the HSC system?

    I see your point Sadiah (and perhaps you have greater ability to say this since you're planning to be a teacher - good on you! :) ) but I'd have to partly agree with Kozak92. I can't vouch for the maths skills of all my high school teachers, but I'm sure some of them didn't really get scaling...

    Most Important Quality In A Teacher

    If I was only allowed to choose one, I'd say being able to teach you without you noticing:D (i.e. it's not a struggle/burden to learn and you only realise you've learned when you think about something you did in class later and realise you understand it:) ) Having said that, I don't think this...

    how will people react?!?

    I saw a girl wearing a free hugs shirt on my first day (yesterday:P) but she didn't seem to have hugged anyone. :P It's up to you. But I personally think just introducing yourself to people sitting next to you, asking their name, what degree they're doing, maybe what school they went to/how far...
