I have to sort out a timetable because there are a couple of problems:
1. A fair few Year 11s registered for various subjects but I forgot to mention that the seminars are targeted PRIMARILY at Year 12s. I think this will reduce the numbers a fair bit since we have quite a lot of Year 11s registering, only a handful of which are accelerated.
I think just for these holidays, we will only have the seminars catering to Year 12 students. Perhaps next holidays we can do it for all. Will sort the students according to grade later.
Later, I will also ask people to confirm seminar attendance so I can get an approximation of numbers. Depending on numbers, I will allocate them to River/Retro/Darug room.
If we do such a thing, I will need to separate the room such that we don't distract the other people studying in the same room.
2. Some seminars have too many people. I originally implemented a max of 10 but I think it's best that we try to help as many people as possible within reason (after all, that's the idea of the day isn't it?). I originally planned to have the River Room for the seminars, but now thinking of using it for the SMALLER seminars ie: Biology, 2U Maths etc whereas the larger ones can make use of the projector + space that is available in the Darug and Retro Room.
3. Problem #2 introduces another problem: Clashes.
Many people want to attend more than 1 seminar but that is virtually impossible looking at the resources and time we have on the day. I will soon make a draft timetable, see what people think, review it then release a final timetable.
-------------------------------------
It will already be pretty difficult fitting in the current seminars, let alone new ones. If really needed and if Demand(Eco/Legal) > Demand(Biology) for example then I might have to replace some seminars.
