ee2 assignments online (1 Viewer)

[jojo]

Since the due date is approaching for most of you doing EE2, I want to see your works! I'm thinking of setting up a website where people ("youse all") can post their EE2 assignments, so other people can read them. I'm really interested in reading works of others... that way I'll have something to do when all of you are off on schoolies and I'm at home protecting my computer seat.

da dummmmmmmmmmmmm! BAD IDEA

as if
@ the last minuite, ppl arent going to give a crap about copyright!

even if u put it online after uve done it

actually
my major work is sitting in the libary at school.. must go get it back

When we have handed in our major works just send them to the www.boredofstudies.org and they will post them up in the ext2 english section, so there is no need to worry about setting up a site cause there is already one set up!

Agh, see that would be interesting, but plagarism is such a sensitive issue especially with something this personal and significant.

The only thing I'd be content with sharing publically is my draft proposal. Originality is just too big an issue with this course I think.

But then maybe some people feel differently..

 

[jojo]

I meant after everyone has handed it in, in which case copyright wouldn't be important anymore, unless you plan on publishing your work.

Anyway the point is moot, Alex is right, they can just send their works to this site.

I think perhaps the plagiarism issue isn't copyright so much as 'could a year 11 student 'steal' my idea?'
I know that's my little grudge against year 11s.

I'd like to see/read/listen to other peoples' major works, though. My own is a bit chunky to put on the web, however...

 

[Lord Ac]

Dont worry anti, I wouldnt steal (much of) your ideas, lol

j/k!

[!meeee!]

i do think there is a bit of a plagarism issue ie. will a year 11/now year 12 steal my major work?
But the answer is no. They can't write it word for word. They won't want to rip off an idea that's already been done. And if they're good enough to take inspiration from your idea and write something in their own words, well that's not plagarism in my opinion and they'll deserve whatever mark they get.
In addition to that I think it's helpful to see what sort of final product they're aiming for
And yes, the BOS are releasing major works from 2001 on that CD-rom and book but it wouldn't hurt to have a couple on here

 

[MiuMiu]

no one's gunna wanna steal your work because everyone wants something original that will make the markers go 'wow' not 'gee, thats original (not)'

 

[Lord Ac]

Good use of the sarcasm there YEAR11, I see your ability to *use* the lanuage is at a remarkably high standard

Ac

 

[MiuMiu]

were you having a dig just then? I don't get it

 

[Lord Ac]

Are you girl?

Ac

 

[MiuMiu]

yes
why?

 

[Lord Ac]

Just curious ... for some reason "YEAR 11" leaves me with a male impression ...

Ac

 

[MiuMiu]

yep well I've gotta change it soon anyway. Any suggestions?

 

[Lord Ac]

How about:

"Disco Stu - female version"?

Ac

 

[Huy]

"Miss Independent" cleared it up for me,

 

[MiuMiu]

omg I thought we cleared this up ages ago!! Back in the sig it goes....

 

[lemonade]

I'd really like to read everyone else's MWs so, yeah, it is a good idea, but it would be pretty annoying if some one stole your idea (although why anyone would steal my idea would be a mystery)...
However, at the moment, I'm more worried about trying to finish my MW rather than who I'm going to show them to when/if I'm finished.

the (i havent even nearly finished yet) seems to be a pretty common comment around here lately though.. seems I havent got the originality thing worked out yet...

 

[malayz_angel]

Yeah I think I should concentrate on finishing my major work, rather than worry about who's going to steal it! I've already shared some ideas with people online though...and I will freak out if anyone tries to copy my ideas, especially since I spent so long in my report emphasising my hope to have something original...
