How much have u done on Your major Project and when is it due? (1 Viewer)

[Demandred]

Word limit is no more than 2500, it says in bold on my sheet and the teacher specifically says do not get higher than that. 10,000 is overkill!

i haven't really started mine.. i know what topic i am going to do, but i have no drafts or anything like that.. i have no idea when mine is due either!!

 

[randhi]

At least you get some sort of scribbles .I don't think our teachers were too keen on actually receiving any drafts because they said, because it's internally marked, they feel if they see drafts, they'll be almost editing our final copy...I reckon the real reason is that they're too lazy to mark 40 drafts...or more, depending on how many each person hands in.

ok so my modern teacher is not one of my two ext hist teachers. since my topic is of a modern nature and he knows alot about it...is it ok to ask ANOTHER history teacher in the history faculty to read the draft and give feedback? and im the only one with a modern background in the ext class anyway but some others are doing modern topics even though they do ancient.

As you said, your modern teacher isn't one of your extension teachers, so I don't see the problem in your modern teacher or someone else in the faculty marking your draft. Actually, that's a really good idea . Just ask the teacher, whether it be your modern teacher, or someone else in the faculty, if they would be willing to mark it

Hey, do you reckon people can swap drafts, e.g. I give mine to someone, and someone gives there's to me, and then we get teachers from our schools to mark them, then we give them back?

I think that would be for your teacher to decide, whether they are happy to mark drafts of people from other schools.

TECHIE ----> We have the same due date. I'm sensing an opportunity for swapping and proofreading...up for it? (Probably not, after your in - depth review of my proposal, you're sick of me for sure!!)

Depends on whether it's a multi-volume epic...
But seriously, I'd be happy to. It'll make me have mine done a bit early, rather than at the last minute.

Yeah you're right, I doubt many teachers would want to mark other people's work, especially if they are from another school.

^^^ hmmm if they did, they would have to be a very enthusiatic teacher that absoluitely loves history and marking etc

hahaha goood idea! except even the nicest teachers wont want to mark 10 000 drafts from other ppl! it would be abit strange to ask a teacher to read and comment on a student's work from another school...on 2nd thought...i dunno.

 

[~dEjA vOuX~]

yeah...I guess I didn't really think about it before I posted the idea...

 

[Supra]

im screwed as well, my topic was not approved, im still trying to find a topic!

 

[ujuphleg]

it might be an idea though, for like everyone in here to buddy up and ask their teachers if they would "review" (if you say review, they won't think of it as mark) and everyone swaps with someone else and gets the teachers to do just one. that way, they don't makr 10,000 papers, everyone gets a second opinion and we're all happy.

mines due end of term 3, so if theres someone else out there with a similar due date, i'd be happy to help.

you know, even if you can't get teachers though, a second opinion from another extension student would be really helpful anyway... see how we all go

 

[nessie_lee]

end of term three???? ohh that is soo unfair!!!!! lol.... jkz

 

[~dEjA vOuX~]

I'd love mine to be due at the end of term 3!! You're so lucky!

 

[ujuphleg]

hang on, did i say end of term three? omigod i'm stupid.

i meant end of term 2 lol -- sorry!!

 

[~dEjA vOuX~]

Hhahaha I did think that it was a little strange that it was due that late...

 

[the questions]

Mine is due June 1st and Im finding it soo hard to start!
Got all the info but actually starting it is proving to be REALLY HARD!
last night job again....i can see it....

 

[trekkie]

Im doing whether William Bligh has been maligned in history, really easy there is a heap available on it and its a contentious issue, ours is due week 9

 

[charlie_charlie]

my draft is due on MOnday! As in tomorrow!
But the final thing is due in Week 9, and apparently we can keep handing in many drafts

 

[HUNT]

Mines due at the end of term two BUT if we haven't finished we can give it in the first week of term three....... phew
