I have a few questions... I tried to find them out on the web but either I couldn't find the info, or I'm not sure if things have changed recently... 1. Do you know if the DET NSW currently use a whitelist or blacklist type filter? 2. Do they publish a list of allowed/blocked sites? 3. Do...

Hi all. You may have noticed that I recently changed the copyright license of my Physics Notes and Past Paper Solutions (HSC Resources by Andrew Harvey - Andrew Harvey's HSC Resources). They are now licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.5 Australia License...

http://dimensions-math.org/Dim_E.htm WOW! The mathematics they show in this film is really cool! I would encourage anyone and everyone who has an interest in mathematics to watch it. I certainly enjoyed every second of it (well perhaps not the parts where they spoke from historical...

http://news.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/index.cfm/2008/5/21/Proposed-improvements-to-Higher-School-Certificate-exams I agree with most of this stuff. What do you think? can't help but laugh at the person who wrote 64 pages for one essay!

http://studentsonline.bos.nsw.edu.au/ I just checked it out today given the Boards promotion of it. Is it just me or does it offer nothing new. To me, it just looks like it links to things on the Boards site.. seems kinda pointless to me.

What do you guys think of the driver who cause all those cyclists to crash into his car? I think that its unfortunate that there are people like this. This just goes to show how some drivers out there need to be more considerate towards other road users...

anyone else notice that this forum seems to crash the Iceweasel browser? its getting annoying. and the crashes are random. sometimes its when i click reply, sometimes when i close the window, and other times as well.

Does anyone else find all this phase 1, cpr, english writting, problem statement/restatement technique a total waste of time. I do. I hate it. I think its useless. Everyone just bullshits the stuff, i mean knowing the design process is one thing, and knowing about the stuff from carl's 7th...

Who here travels to uni/school/work without using fossil fuels or electricity, and travels more than 5km? How do you travel and how far do you travel?

I know that it is primarily aimed at teacher, I found it quite interesting to read through (then again its probably only because I have an interest in education), none the less you can find the ETA NSW Forum at, http://www.englishteacher.com.au/phpBB/index.php

I just read in the Sun Herald today, page 13, that "The Government released a discussion paper with options including raising the age students stay at school or in compulsory training to 16, 17 or 18". Ha.. that's so funny because if they make the leaving age 18, then they will have to invent...

How to draw chemical formula, mostly structural formula, on a computer. "InChI" will help, but its just a library of code, so you may need to find other more user friendly programs such as, http://wwmm-svc.ch.cam.ac.uk/wwmm/html/googleinchiserver.html Chem Sketch is another one, but...

Although your HSC exam is still a while away, I though I should post this before I forget. Students in Graphics Industries should keep in mind that set squares are NOT permitted in the HSC examination. This has caused confusion in the past as when I did my HSC about half the students in my...

Board Bulletin (Vol 17 No 1) Teachers of English are reminded that the Area of Study stimulus booklet for the HSC English (Standard, Advanced and English as a Second Language) courses has been withdrawn as a prescribed text for the 2008 HSC onwards. This was previously communicated to schools...

I did this quiz, as I think its compulsory. What they will do if you don't do it, I don't know. The questions are stupid, I failed! I got 15.17/20, the pass mark is 16. Now I gotta waste more time doing this thing again. Grrhh... Has anyone else done it?

Because the Excel book cover's all the texts, and each text it cover's is only a few pages, you might be lucky enough that the text you are studying is available through Google Books, http://books.google.com/books?id=4gRDngYDAGoC&pg=PA324&dq=HSC+English&lr=&sig=ulrd1_1CsZ_y91sysVZEQntq-f0...

I can't seem to find a thread on this, so I'll create one. Who else is doing Computing at UNSW 1st year this year? I'm doing Computer Science, anyone else out there?

Over the year's my computer seems to be getting slower and slower.. It's using 1/2 of the total ram just after is starts up before i load any programs! (total 1GB). My processor is a P4 (3.2Ghz). I use XP, and my C drive has about 10GB free space. Should I consider upgrading hardware or are...
