hey terry.. me think its the tutorial time

 

[redruM]

workshops = tutorials = mini lectures = sleep time

 

[jinghuang]

yes, it is the tut time, they call it workshop coz it's in large class size

 

[flyin']

workshops = tutorials = mini lectures = sleep time

my sage advice - there are better places to sleep

 

[*hopeful*]

do they take attendance in these workshop thingyz ?

 

[redruM]

hopeful, they didnt when i did it last yr.
flyin, who said anything about sleeping in the lecture hall?

[redruM]

check quote above.

ok.

(this will become one of those arguments that we tend to have too often [that just derail the original topic], so we'll both nod in acknowledgement of something, ok?

yeah econ111 has been pretty shit so far this semester, in comparison to econ110 anway.... like... we actually had lecture slides and online shit so it was kinda easy to see wat the fuck we actually needed to learn

the lecturer sounds like an olden day racing commentator and those old tv commercial overhead voices lol .......

 

[*hopeful*]

yeh he sooo does, kinda like a politician as well

 

[Tabris]

"And There you have it"

"And there it is"

classic lines from McHarg

knows his stuff though

he repeats those lines about 3-4 times per lecture on average

 

[Supra]

yeh he sooo does, kinda like a politician as well

Hey hopeful do you sit by yourself in the micro lectures? If so i think i know who you are

He's my favourite lecturer, coz I leave with an actual understanding of concepts and theories.

yeah hes my fave too...even the macro lectureres werent that bad either...the worst lectureres are the comp ones FOR SURE...they dont deserve to be paid...

 

[:: ck ::]

lol i rkn he's a legend... the commentator voice is cool as well haha.. and he knows his shit very well

makes me not want to skip the lectures (as opposed to macro... which sucked)

 

[kunny funt]

"this lecture is costing you 40 dollars an hour"

..... wow.... that actually worked in making me pay attention lol and furthermore - attend more lectures

has anyone done much study in econ111 so far this semester ?

i havent done anything and im thinking i shud prrrrrrrrrrrrobably start seeing as there are no tutes to motivate me

 

[CrashOveride]

does anyone know like can you do these sorta units, ECON111 etc by long distance study?

i dont goto any of these lectures.

 

[pb]

i've been reading the textbook.. cuz i frigged up in it last year and gotta redo it... and so im gonna D it this time godammit! lol ... i reckon if you fall behind in this its sooo hard to catch up

 

[:: ck ::]

got any hints on how to study for it pb?? from experience??

all i do is jus read the textbook, so i just have a vague idea... are we meant to be doing questions form the study guide??!!

 

[Tabris]

I usually take notes from the chapters i was suppose to read, u get about 2-4 A4 pages of notes per chapter...

then u do the exercise questions in the study book and textbook...

then again, u might want to reserve those questions before the tests

 

[pb]

i dont write notes.. i take wayyyy too long and i end up falling behind :|
i just read and highlight the textbook and go to lectures... and when workshops start i'll go to them. i think the exam would be based a lot on the workshops so they'd be pretty important.
oooh and go to lectures! not just read the textbook... well for me i reckon the examples he gives, he explains so differently from the textbook.
