    footnotes

    Footnotes, AFAIK, are not counted in the word limit - i've never seen a case in any course where they have been. Though I don't think you are meant to be writing fat slabs in them that you don't want wasting your precious space inside the essay. Thats just cheap 'n' nasty. : > Ish

    Crime Fiction Documentary

    My friend taped that for me, apparently it was quite decent. Did anyone actually see it? Ish

    Crime Fiction

    Anything by Raymond Chandler is great for use in Hard Boiled - I suggest reading it. Besides, teachers seem to like Hard Boiled when they are marking essays. Perhaps some sense of connexion? : > Ish

    Too Big?

    The HSC is too huge. I have found Modern rather small/easier compared to some other subjects (SOR II & Ancient History, for example). This might be because at my school we have done the 1914-1918, then the Weimar/Rise of Hitler, Leni Riefenstahl and finally Indo-China. Though it is...

    Major Works

    Wow, that was a good effort. Remember though, before you take that advice, it all depends on who marks it, and the weather outside, and any relationship problems the marker is having, and what time of day it is, and how disgruntled they are and... *stops* : > Ish

    Case Studies

    My class is doing the Appeasers. Its really boring :| Unfortunatly, our school only offered the Modern Extension course, instead of both Ancient & Modern due to the small numbers that are doing it and lack of teachers (20 or so students to one teacher). Could have been fun. Oh well. Ish

    Which HISTORIANS are you all covering????

    For historiography in the trials I used: Bede, von Ranke, Marx, Namier and Herodotus (that I can remember : >) For our Appeasement case study: Namier, Gilbert and AJP Taylor. Ish

    Case study - appeasement!!!

    Glibert & Gott's 'The Appeasers' is a boring book that I hate. Gilbert, however, is a good historian to study since he changes his opinion from what it was in 'The Appeasers' to a more moderate/revisionist approach after the opening of the British Government Archives during the Chamberlain...
