I received a mark equivalent to 98% on this. It's an evaluation of Mikhail Gorbachev's role in the dissolution of the Soviet Union – complementary to personal interest in Russian history, the USSR and how it ended.

I received a mark of 98% on this task – it essentially discusses positive and negative, ancient and modern historical perspectives of the Roman emperor Julian the Apostate, who was notable for being the last pagan emperor.

In the form of a 2x2 table, with the relevent syllabus points on the sides so you can easily navigate between notes and their relation to the syllabus. Good luck Year 11/12 M.HIS students.

Really neat of you to help this guy out so much. Wish I could give more than a simple thumbs-up. This is wonderful.

Haha, oh I can hear that!

Thanks! Much appreciated :D

Hi Year 10 students (and others), I just thought I should write a quick thing to consider before you pick English Extension in Year 11 because it could be the difference between you really enjoying or disliking it. ---------------------------------- If you are a STRAIGHT-TO-THE-POINT...

Ah man, I'm doing this now. Dude it's sucking so hard but know that you're not the only one.

• ~1,500 words essay on the problems with constructing Holocaust history • received an 18/20 • had to elaborate not just on the problematic methods of constructing history (like ommiting information, making up facts, etc) but also how this affects real historians - think of it like this: by...

I acknowledge with my Dad that some parts of schooling is definitely easier now, like our access to calculators, the Internet, being able to email teachers when stuck, and so on. I just find it so so frustrating that he refuses to acknowledge that school might...

I get what you're saying but I've hated English since year 9 because it just got really analytical and unenjoyable from that point forward - I'd still get A's in my English tasks and awards at school ceremonies for it. I was doing well, but I hated it and just kept saying "when will I ever need...

That is a fair point. I hear a lot at school the idea of a fixed vs growth mindset. Am a natural pessimist and it is so hard to be optimistic - it normally comes in odd spurts here and there where I really feel okay with how I'm doing, because I know others are struggling too. I do appreciate...
