Anyone doing Australian History?
If so, how are you feeling about the exam next week?
-
OMG! looks like the next generation will have no appreciation or understanding of their past!
How we will know where we are going if we don't know where we've been?!!
grrr people.... lol.

grr makes me angry when people say that!
The problem is the interesting content can't properly be taught until year 12 level because the concepts are to challenging for earlier year levels. Thus the content students are exposed to at in early years of schooling is dry and mundane which in turn puts students off the subject... it's not fair. :-(

well if it is i highly recommend it! fascinating stuff!

Yay for the exam = 3 days...........
hahaha, who am I kidding.
They aren't running Aussie history next yr at my school either, not enough people, I'm so glad I did it this year.
And I completely agree, you do all this 'aust hist' in the younger years but nothing really relates to the study design, coz it's heaps different.
Why I would have done so well in revs, because I already knew the basics.
How I feel about the exam?
Um, I think that I"m screwed really. and my results are going to look shit coz I got As for the SACs and now like a C for the exam...
argh
but it's all good =]
it's only my 6th subject for next yr
-
What are you struggling with? This subject is my 'ace card' and would be happy to help you out. :-)
I got A+'s all year and am gunning for full marks on Friday. 8)

-
oh lol. cant help u with that!
try reorganising your notes. that helps me remember.
I make tables and then try to fill them in by memory. :-)
-
Yeah I can do all that, just there's literally millions of other stuff I have to do this month..............
argh, I hate being active at times like this.
Which areas did you do for the last two AOSs though?
-
I did 'World War II' and 'Immigration'.

you guys are really going to have to stand out on Section D! Last year 72% of students wrote on Vietnam!!
I'm sure you guys will ace it!
Good luck. :-)

thanks for that, great thing to hear just before the exam :( haha.
oh well, vietnam is what we covered in class, so that's what i'm writing about tommorow.
best of luck to anyone doing the exam tommorow!
-
Good luck to you too. :-)
24 hours to go! yay!
-
for anyone doing the exam tomorrow, how will you split your time for it?
how long are you planning on spending on section C (the essay) etc. ?
-
im planning to do something like:
A: 25mins
B: 25mins
then D: 35mins
then C: 35mins
and hopefully pinch a few more mins from Sections A and B for the essay.
Good Luck everyone!

Just to revive the post;
I do Australian History and was wondering when we get to unit 4 do we only do or get to chose what topic we do e.g. WW1 or do we have to do it all. My teacher explained this, but she wasnt clear. Do we still look over the other stuff or just focus on WW1 and skip WW2 and then obviously pick WW1 on the exam? :S
-
Just WWI in AOS 3 (ie unit 4 aos 1) or vietnam, environment, aborgines or something else for AOS4
So your teacher will pick a unit for you
