Honestly, you learn more if you do self-learning because you come up with your own tricks and ways of remembering things that work for you - be it pictures, poems or whatever. There is no one I know that learnt their German vocab the way I did (making weird connections with English and so on)...

In terms of shortening a reflection statement: 1. Write it. 2. Word Count it. 3. Work out what percentage can stay. 4. Use the Summary function in Word (if you are using word) and ask it to shorten it to that percentage. Summary function then highlights stuff that is superfluous and repetitive...

OK, go through the work and see if there are places which feel thin because you have told the reader how a person is feeling eg he was feeling nervous. Now you can do two things that will strengthen your work - 1. add more words 2. show the reader how they are feeling by describing what the...

Well, since I'm in that future, I guess I can answer with some authority ;) This questionnaire has been created for the purpose of answering the question, to what extent does the HSC prepare students for their futures? 1. What year did you begin your high school education and what is the year...

Ah yes, but don't leave any out. aus ausser bei mit nach seit von zu Indeed it would be if English teachers actually did that. I learnt ALL my english grammar (all the hard stuff, not the basics of verbs, nouns, adjectives etc) from German study. In terms of transitive, intransitive and...

Double spacing is to make it easier to read. And when a marker is reading hundreds of works, their eyes will get a little blurry and skip lines if they are single spaced. Double spacing is to help them and to help you, to maximise ease of reading (AND it is a professional way to present your...

Oje! Es tut mir aber Leid. Das ist mein Fehler. Ich fing mit anderen Farben an und dann änderte sie. Ja, blau - nominativ rot - dativ grün - akkusativ.

One thing you could do, is get a copy of the various religions' prayer books. The green Australian Anglican Prayer book has information on Anglican baptism in there. I would suggest that other religions are similar. Hope that helps (it means some footwork on your behlf, or at least a visit to...

Gee, wow. That's a big ask. You are already behind the eight ball by a whole year, even in Beginners German. Don't you have to complete the Prelim Course anyway, before being admitted to the HSC Course? And by distance Ed, even harder if you have no one to tutor you or give you speaking...

Ever wondered how to recognise Nominativ, Akkusativ, Dativ and Genetiv? After receiving a private message from one of you, I wrote this little explanation about Nominativ, Akkusativ, Dativ and Genetiv noun cases are. Since I couldn't attach it to a message, I have posted it here - which is...

Can I humbly suggest using part ii and writing the thing in mod/arg form and then manipulating the trig functions (if you haven't done that yet)?

I have heard it said that studies show that Single-sex schools are best for girls but co-ed are best for boys. But where are all those self-sacrificing girls that would do co-ed just to help out the boys? I went to single sex and found it great. Girls can be very catty in those adolescent...

Equal chords subtend equal angles at the circumference of a circle. Thus, angle BDA = angle BCA = angle CBD = angle CAD = angle BAC = angle BDC = x Angles on a diameter are 90 deg. Thus angle ABD = angle ACD = 90 deg In triangle ACD: 3x + 90 = 180 Co-interior angles between lines BC and...

But remember, there are always many paths to your ultimate goal. Some are the fast track - getting the right UAI - others are doing another course and then doing a mature age entry into the course you want. Sometimes that is the best course because you are older, wiser and more committed to...

Hey guys, finishing the first draft is only the first step. Editing is the most important and longest step. Take your time doing it. Edit once, then again, then again. Each time look for new things to edit. Remove redundancy. Tighten plot and pace. Insert themes. It takes people YEARS to get...

I know I have seen posts from people in the past recommending you not do that because plagerism is alive and well. The posting of final works happens AFTER submission. Best to contact people directly who offer to look and critique. Elsewhere I have made this offer. SO, if you want me to pull it...

Can I suggest that to help you do this year for the HSC: - Do regular summaries of your work. - Carry around little formula books or very summarised notes to read whenever you get a chance. - Enjoy your last year at school. - Get into your hobbies and take some time out each day for you to...

During a simple long addition at the beginning of an answer: 3+6 = 10 And the mistake then carried through the entire question. Thank goodness for CFPA (correct for previous answer)

Actually, going to the very basics, the fact that you can add the digits in the number and if they add to 3, 6 or 9 the number is divisible by 3. If the sum is even the original number it is divisible by 6 and if the sum is 9, the number is divisible by 9. PI! How many decimal places and still...

There are 2 sorts of spectral lines - absorption and emission. Let's take emission lines for a minute. When electrons in an atom are highly energised and existing above a rest orbit and then fall down to a lower orbit, they emit a photon of energy at a particular freqency equal to the energy...
