[jirwin]

Im also interested in it too.

I have used word for all my folios for my dnt projects... its easy... just a bit of creative layouts and arrangement and some cool background and stuff from clip art.... also added with craft stuff from cheap shops

hehe! how long! such an interesting point of conversation around these parts.

Depends on how long you need really to explain everything, why and how etc...

Some are really really long and others are short...

Personally... 266 pages! 60 000 words! almost killed me but thats what i felt i needed! and it payed dividends in the end!

... 266 pages! 60 000 words! ...

omg

 

[jirwin]

i have about 33,000 words so far... thats including my diary tho which is 15,000

27 A3 pages so far...

MrMe: were ur pages A4 or A3?

 

[MrMe]

MrMe: were ur pages A4 or A3?

They were A4

 

[jirwin]

Our's have to be A3 - kinda sucks... its more expensive but u can fit more on a page i guess

 

[MrMe]

Why on earth does it have to be A3?

I could never see the point in it... I would have just found it annoying!

 

[jirwin]

its part of our internal assessment criteria.

i went to the designTECH exhibition today at the local muesum - all of them were A3 except one which was a4.

i dont really know which one i like better to be honest - but i dont really have a choice either.

im kinda doing a combination of the two - which my teacher doesnt mind - i dont think he cares what i do because im one of the two people that are actually working

yes ours specifies that it has to be an A3 folio which costs alot if you are using black paper!!!!!

I've noticed that there is a very good template available in the "resource" section of BoredofStudies; not so much a solid template per se, but a very good one correlating with syllabus points. It's under the MDP subheading by "anonymous".

If you can't access that, however, take a look at the syllabus again for some idea of where you need to be at. And if all else fails start rambling.

 

[homestarrunner]

wow do you i would love to do d+t tutoring that would be so good i love d+t it is my fav subject are you doing you year 12 major or have you already done it?
