Hey,
I've been doing Ext. History for about a month now and I'm really liking it. Our case study is Spain and The Aztecs. Apparently barely anybody chooses it which I thinks a good thing. I think there's eleven of us with two people already dropping it.

 

[ness.xox]

Is anyone doing 'The Crusades' for their case study?
(Because I am at my school)
Im thinking of doing something about the Apollo moon landing conspiracy looks interesting

 

[jortari]

lol there are like 20 of us in our class
were doing elizabeth I
i think i might do the rwandan genocide, but i have to find historians, and it only happened in 1994! so that might be hard
there are so many interesting topics!
haha

hello. i am thinking of doing whitlam from various historical perspectives(ie; marxist, modernist&post-modernist). is this a good idea? and has anyone done anything similar to this and may have some hints for some insigtful areas?

G'day Ladies and Gentlemen.

I see that there are many of you out there who are worried or at least uncertain about what History Extension requires you to do.

If you need help, feel free to come to me (or I'll come to you) for tutoring - I scored full marks for my project and ranked 2nd in the State in the course overall (getting 50/50). My post for tutoring can be found here:

[bling05]

Dropped History Extension Down to 12 units now.

 

[Rhanoct]

we're doing jfk.

i'm going to do either something to do with the russian revolution(s) or the historicity of king arthur/robin hood.

I was watching a doco yesterday, and wondering whether or not I should change it to:

Traditional socialism: Dead or Alive?

Hey, I have made my question for my major work...How does this sound...

Investigate the role of the United States Government in changing society’s opinions on the 1947 Roswell Incident.

Any thoughts???

 

[forkyspoony18]

my class is doing elizabeth, and i was thinking of doing the Sandakan Death March & Prisoners Of War & why the Japanese have hidden it from their people for so long. im just not to sure what kind of question i am wanting to address...

any ideas?

Try to get feedback from your teacher. As for me, I think it could be quite general and can be better worded.

 

[zoenicole1990]

Hey : )
I'm considering doing
Cuban revolution (not Guevara dw)
1979 Iran revolution
Shah of Iran
U.S Cuban relations
or for something completely different, Pocahontus

anyone think any of these are good/bad topics?

 

[Connor211]

Our case study is John F. Kennedy.
Should be good.
Still thinking about what i'll do for my project.

 

[Kujah]

Got 7 books for holiday reading today. 6 on "What is History?" and 1 for Elizabeth - by Elton.

anyway, good luck all extesion 08 people!

we have done...what is history from herodotus to the Annales historians

I have to admit, it does involve great motivation and hard work to tackle ext. hist
( 2 people dropped already= 2 down..4 to go..)

now, our teacher just gave us some practice essay questions straight from the HSC paper..about "what is history"

geez...its due on friday..

say, what do you guys think about herodotus as being the father of historia?

and as for my project..i threw "french revolution" on the banister since a lot of people are doing it ..

i think i'm doing Nikola Tesla OR the liquidation of the warsaw ghetto..
