[Kulazzi]

have a search through the forum I think there's another thread on this although I'm mainly focussing on adolescent identity

what do you mean by secret societies?

 

[2rko]

serious? whoops sorry mods i didnt know .. i might do something on the freemasons ... see i dont knw what thery are but it all seems pretty interesting so im gonna giv it a shot

you do that. That's what the PIP is for.

 

[2rko]

yeah true .. have u seen the distinction pips? so goddamn boring and extensive .. i dont know how im gonna get there

 

[Kulazzi]

don't worry, just concentrate now. One girl from my school in 03 got a distinction and had to do a speech at the PIP info day (and her speech was put into one of those pip mags, and it was very long!) althought I doubt I will get up to where she has been. Just do your best!

 

[2rko]

what was hers on ... what are other people are your school doing?

 

[Kulazzi]

her was something about conformity to morality, one girls is doing beauty and how it is specifically defined, someone's doing Santa, another happiness, another is doing the use of school education and there's more but I cannot remember.

A girl at the school I went to last year did Santa for her PIP. The teacher collared me and another girl to serve as the cross cultural comparison, because I was raised in a Buddhist household and the other girl is an Aborigine. It's an interesting topic.

According to my proposal, I'm doing 'The Church of Satan- Perceptions vs Realities'. I'm hoping to change it, if I can settle on something similar that I like, soon. I'm really more interested in the idea of how misconceptions arise and spread, rather than the actual beliefs of Satanism.

Mine is on the role of anti-Semitism in different countries and the Jewish diaspora.

I really doubt that. I'm still working on my questionnaire. As survivor39 mentioned somewhere, do (or you should have done) all your secondary research in the holidays that way while you're at school you can work on your primary research and have the teacher continuously check it constantly.

 

[2rko]

i have done no research and feel like crap
good luck everyone! ill start this weekend :uhhuh:

 

[ashiebear]

i'm doing gambling in todays society. everyone's pip seems so much better than mine, im so not motivated to start doing anything.

 

[KOfGHS]

Guys take this from an 04er. Dont worry if you dont finish it till a few days before not matter what your teachers say. It seems like such a big deal now but afterwards you wonder what all the fuss was

 

[2rko]

what was your topic? how'd you go?

 

[miss_depp]

Oooh! My first post....

I'm doing mine on the hype over homosexual connotations in children's television programs.
Anyone think it's any good?

 

[_Benji_]

I'm doing mine on refugees- Australia's policy, international policies, NGO's, children in detention, a case study of a guy I know etc etc etc

Anyone got any notes?
