    Cold War - Speculation

    I think it's either going to be detente or the arms race. Does anyone know how to answer the CSSA question?: Explain the significance of the arms race in the Cold War period. What would your arguments for each paragraph be? I don't know how to structure my response. Does "significance" mean...

    Lear - Dramatic Techniques

    uhhhh. are you sure? i talked about characterisation, plotting, the subplot, language and imagery other people having written about irony, soliloquy, foreshadowing, etc. which uh... sound more like dramatic techniques to me. lawl. i'm SCREWED, right? don't get my hopes up.

    Lear - Dramatic Techniques

    Say I talked about language/narrative techniques instead of "dramatic" techniques. Am I looking at 10/20? If I'm lucky? lol ... :( epic fail

    Section 1 - e)

    is it just me, or was this question NOT a compare and contrast? (judging by some people's comments, they think that it was... so i'm confused) also i repeated a lot off stuff i'd already said in analysing texts 2 and 4. will i get any marks?

    Cold War - Detente - Historiography

    I'm a bit unsure as to how the geopolitical developments - vietnam, sino-soviet split, and the middle east - affected detente? that is, positively or negatively?

    Are there any points of historical contention with regard to Detente? If not, what do we do about historiography?

    Final Fantasy X

    we've all been advised against it, because i'm sure the majority of responses analysing video games have been crap. still, there are exceptions to rules, and each text is unique. we're all strongly advised to steer clear from suicide, teenage angst, etc. in our creatives - but in the 2003 ext. 2...

    Final Fantasy X

    what does that even mean? well, at least my attack was punctuated by a friendly smiley. yours was just rude. and hello, you started it. 3 people could be wrong. and i really don't understand your assertion that i was having a 'huge cry'. that's just an easy way to trivialise any argument that...

    So what really is an imaginative journey? Like seriously

    From my introduction: "The imaginative journey is a journey of the mind; a construct of the imagination not physically present to the senses, but no less important for it. By engaging in the speculation essential to the imaginative journey, we open up ourselves to possibilities new and other...

    hahaha. no, all you did was ignore it and then spout what you've been spoonfed. sorry :) LOL. someone's an angry little man... it's an internet forum. chill out. i don't think you understand what 'hearsay' means. not really. i haven't played the game in a year, so i'd actually have to do...

    Final Fantasy X

    you are clearly mentally deficient. i came here to GET advice, dipshit, and i got it. THAT's why i posted on this thread. you do not have to TAKE every piece of advice that you get without exerting your own critical faculties. i did ACKNOWLEDGE the advice. acknowledgement is not tantamount to...

    Final Fantasy X

    no offence, but this is moronic. as i said, if the concept of journey is well presented and you've fulfilled the rubric... if it would still look like "you'd rather play video games than do work", then it's fairly insulting to the marker's intelligence. i'd like to give them more credit than...

    Final Fantasy X

    what does the markers *relating* to the text have anything to do with it? if your analysis is convincing and sophisticated, and presents a clear concept of the journey, then i don't see why it should be a problem. besides, ffx is a rpg, and its narrative is actually the main focus. it would be...

    Final Fantasy X

    are we allowed to choose video games for our supplementary texts? because yeah, i have one more text to do and i think ffx would actually be a good one. for those familiar with the storyline, what do you think? :s
