wot happened to latin?

 

[allyteaded]

how do you get a language as part of your degree?

I'm enrolled in COFA... B digital Media... but all the subjects I'm enrolled in are cores... and I'm already doing 100% of the study load... so they said it's not advisible to take extra subjects.

But... can you? just wondering... or is it better to wait till second year?

i wanna get into JAP3000 in my first yr...

To allyteaded:

I'm in my 2nd yr of Digital Media. About including language or any other subjects you want to do, you basically won't have time to do it in 1st yr since all the subjects are compulsory and you'll be doing a full load already. Do a language as an elective or as a gen ed in 2nd/3rd yr when you have less core subjects.

french is easier for me cos vietnamese has roots in french. korean is easy for me cos i already know some. on the other hand i know no latin

not to mention that latin isnt really that useful besides for intellectual stimulation

[inasero]

[Eeko]

wat the hell is the diff between seminars and lectures or tuts

 

[babydoll_]

tute - 1 teacher, 10 students - more hands on
lecture - 1 teacher, several hundred students - detached, teacher talks, you listen
seminar - in between both

this is what some guy told me today

 

[Eeko]

gr8
on my timetable they list chinese as lectures

on the chinese faculty website's timetable it's listed as seminars

when i emailed them, they told me it was tutorials.

 

[babydoll_]

no
youre given a lecture time

then you probably have to pick seminar and tutorials
look up your course here: http://www.arts.unsw.edu.au/timetable/
and tell me what it says

 

[Eeko]

I've looked thru the timetable thoroughly and that's y i emailed em


I'm given 2 lecture times and I'm told they are also the times for the seminars and tutorials. It's like a semilectorial
