Does this sound right to people? (1 Viewer)

[Nomes]

I'm doing B Education (Primary) and I just worked out my timetable yesterday.

For semester one I am only doing 6 hrs a week of lectures and tutorials. Then for semester two it jumps to twelve hours a week.

Does this sound all good or am I missing something?

should b 12hrs a semester i think

but maybe ur course is different to my commerce one

 

[Nomes]

I have two units that they automtically put on our enrolment form for sem 1 which are.... (just finding the sheet)

Language and Literacy - lectures go for 1 hr, tut 2 hr
Issues in Ab Education - lec 2 hr, tut 1hr

 

[Nomes]

I just looked up the undergraduate handbook and it has 4 units listed. So confused.

 

[Nomes]

you reckon ring em up? or can i just wait til orientation cause i'm scared of them and lazy?

hey
im in 2nd yr primary ed
u do 4 subjects in 1st semester in 1st year and they are all compulsory.
u should be doing

Language and Literacy
Issues in Ab Education
intro to curriculum
psychology 1A

so year it should be 3 hours for each subject, equalling 12 hrs.
plus you will end up doing a prac in school one day a week (beginning week 4) so that also makes more hours


be glad
i'm doing a bazillion hours this sem

 

[lolzieee]

u don't do electives in 1st year for primary ed

not till 2nd semester 2nd year

Wow practicals already in week 4. That sounds exciting.
Hey do you know when Early Childhood course do there first pracs??

 

[Nomes]

thanks , I think I might be making a phonecall in the morning to clear this up before tut reg

 

[lolzieee]

i think they start around the same time.. thats what i remember from my friends doing early childhood.. but i could be wrong!

 

[lolzieee]

yeah definatly fix it up before friday or you will end up with crappy tut times for those subjects
(altho u don't do tut registration for psychology till like the 24th i think because it's part of the arts faculty)

 

[liz]

So you mean in a couple of weeks i could be doing practical?? wow!!
Hey do we get to choose where we do our pracs?

 

[lolzieee]

ummmm im not sure about early ed but for primary ed in 1st semester 1st year you don't get to pick.
and yea they totally throw you in the deep end and put you in prac when you know nothing!! it's sorta cool tho

You can do as many as you want. I am doing only three, to compensate for my DipLaw course.

Wow your doing two courses. Good luck. Did you apply for them seperately through uac or something? Isn't dimploma mean post gradate studies??

[babyslug]

Yep i have 12 hours during first semester - i haven't worked out my second semester stuff yet.
But only 6 hours? You'd be sitting on a sweet spot.
