What electives do/did you do in yrs9/10? (1 Viewer)

[XcarvengerX]

I did History, which was much more interesting than mandatory history, Computer Studies, which was a bludge and i regret doing (especially now im dropping software) and French, which unfortunately I had to give up after yr 9 to accelerate in Physics. I wish I was still doing a language, but then again I already have 17 units and thats plenty .

I never know you can choose history as elective on top of the compulsory one, but what did you guys learn in this history elective?

Anyway, I did 3 electives:
Computing Studies - did nothing other than play games and surf the net.
Music - did nothing too other than play instruments (only very little theory)
Communication - force to do this just because I am overseas student. The most boring subject ever. We did movie appreciation almost every week and debate on some useless topic.

I did Computing Studies and Art. Loved Computers in Year 9 because I flogged everyone, but with a new teacher in year 10 I fell to third. Sorta glad I did though, they wanted to accelerate me into IPT. I only did Art because no-one at my school wanted to do Commerce, but I ended up topping Art, which moreorless became one big debate with my bitch of a teacher over interpretations of artworks.

Commerce, French and Accelerated Earth and Environmental Studies for me.

when i was in year nine (last year) they changed some of the names and courses i think? wood tech is now timber technology, computing studies - information software technology (IST), Asian Studies - cultural studies, etc etc =]

[Sofstar]

I did commerce and french.

 

[Dragie]

I did Drama and Commerce

Drama was the funniest subject coz my teacher chucked tantrums every few days and we never did anything. Good times...

 

[daniel213]

I did Food Technology and Computing Studies

doing computing studies was the biggest mistake i have ever done, i thought i would actually learn more about computers not any of this dodgy excel spreadsheet and crap like that.

seeing i work in a computer shop and fix, build and everything to computers it was a very big disappointment

 

[FranzFerdinand]

I did
Food Tech
Visual Arts
Technical Drawing (1st)

 

[passion89]

[yvonne.cheng]
