    songs as related texts?

    Do you think songs are generally weak to use as related texts? This is what I've been told. I was thinking to do "Exodus" by Evanescence as a related text for belonging..

    advice about speech and being scared?

    My speeches have never gone well.. the only time I feel at at least a bit of comfort is when I don't look up and just read from my cards. In year 8 I had a panic attack and the following years after I just got extreme anxiety. I think my last speech in year 10 went alright although I was still...

    Your best 10 units will be counted. So if you are good in those units... then I guess you're safe? Really depends.

    HELP ASAP due tomorrow in text referencing

    Well, I wasn't really sure, I was trying to use Harvard. When I showed it to my teacher she said it was right (but I realised it wasn't after I handed it in). Do you think I will lose marks for doing it wrong? It wasn't in the marking criteria, but the teacher for the other CAFS class told me...

    What should I do about my Modern History teacher?

    Well isn't that pretty much what you do in History subjects, anyway? I don't do history but in my junior years when I did it, the main thing we did was reading, high lighting, and making notes. You could express your concerns to your teacher and suggest maybe watching some educational movies on...

    Can you 'mark'/give advice on my essay introduction

    Thanks everyone. I sort of thought the same thing when I read it out aloud, that there were some unnecessary words and perhaps I wasn't on the point. Ugh, I feel like I can never get essays right no matter how much I try. >.< but thanks for the help, I will put your advice to use.

    Can you 'mark'/give advice on my essay introduction

    I'm trying to improve my essays. My average mark in english is like 65% - 70% and I think it's because of my poor essay writing skills. I want to average 85% at least. I am working on improving one section at a time, so I have began reading guides and writing introductions for several different...

    help with feedback loop

    In biology we are learning about the feedback mechanism thing. I understand most of it. I know that also we may have to draw one in the exam. My problem is that all of the like 5 diagrams my teacher gave us are structured differently, so I don't know which one to learn the structure of to use...

    What to do if your teacher is like this?

    You're not going to be given more marks because "you tried hard so you deserve it". You will be given marks if your work meets the guidelines of the assessment/test/whatever.

    HELP ASAP due tomorrow in text referencing

    Ok, I thought we were going to have the referencing lesson today, but no. And my CAFS proposal is due tomorrow. So I tried to do it myself. Basically I want to know if I've done the in-text referencing correctly. For convenience I am only putting the sections with referencing...

    Study Patterns

    My initial study pattern was studying from about 6pm - 9pm. I did that for a week, then slacked off, only doing homework for like 30min a night lol. I'm trying to start studying more though, at least 2 hours a day. I can't study after 9pm. Well I can but I'm tired. I found studying makes me...
