Hah expertdkx I was confused at first looking at your subjects, but now I think you're looking for next year's thread. :p

Anyways, is your class really going to spend the rest of the year on the SGP. At best, its a throwaway assignment intended to fill the fieldwork component of the prelim syllabus, and its mostly intended as an out of class assessment (which is pretty important IMO, as there's barely enough fieldwork required in the HSC). It really should be done in your own time.

Besides, wouldn't it be more productive to use that school time for other subjects as prep for next year, or even maybe start the HSC earlier?

I do geography as well! We just finished all our topics before our trial (which happens to be tomorrow, how fun!).

We started with Urban places, mainly focussing on Dynamics in Pyrmont as a case study. Ecosystems we did GBR and alpine areas as a class and for our assessment I chose to do intertidal wetlands. For the last topic (the name escapes me at the moment) we did Tourism. Pretty boring actually.

Apparently no-one on bos does Geography, but me. :santa:

If anyone else does it, what have you done in class so far, and are currently doing? We did topic 3 first, People and Economic Activity, and focused on the Wine Industry. Now we're starting Topic 1, Ecosystems at Risk. Our case studies are the Great Barrier Reef (along with every other kid) and the Stockton Bight Sand Dunes.

Cheers,
The only Geography student in 2007(??) xo.
