Enrolment & orientation (1 Viewer)

[mishka]

just wondering when everyone's enrolling!! i have to go to Strathfield campus at 12:45 this Friday. i'll be driving - it's about 40-45 minutes from my house.

who's going to orientation week?! i think i'll be going Monday (14th), Tuesday and Thursday of that week. Monday sounds like it's sort of compulsory because you meet with the course co-ordinator and all that kind of jazz. Tuesday and Thursday have workshops that will probably benefit me, because it's been too long since i've worked my brain!!

i went this morning 8:45am
haha wow there were actually guys there that was suprising.. im sure they were all doing exercise science though
i got there at like 8:15 cuz i thought it would take ages due to traffic and it only took like 25 mins! i got home at like 9:40... that was cool
i like how u can drive and park there thats pretty cool
i think in o week ill go mon to thurs.. got nothing better to do

i went to the north sydney campus. 20 min drive to a station then a 1/2 hour train trip Took like 20 mins to enroll all up.

lol, that's what i thought too!! but when people were invited to talk to the course co-ordinator, i was surprised at how many of them went down to the Primary Ed co-ordinator!!

i was in and out of the auditorium in half an hour - if this is how organised ACU is all the time, i'm loving it already!!

what course are u doing. and where at

 

[cro_angel]

louise get ur ps u lazy bum u had ur ls like 7 months before i got my ls and ur still on them.. and ive had my ps for 6 months!
has anyone checked out the draft timetables? i dont understand how theres 4 different ones for primary ed.. how do i know which one i have to do or do we get to choose?
cuz yeh some have tuesday night tutes and some dont.. im doing croatian @ macquarie on tuesday nights so wouldnt be able to make it *growls*
shes doing ba @ strathfield

 

[mishka]

i think i figured the timetable out for primary ed. ours is Prim 1 cos we're in our first year. then it looks like there are 8 (?) tutorial groups, so i guess we'd pick one group... and everyone attends the same lectures. i could be, and probably am, wrong!! orientation has info on timetables, so most likely we'll choose then and learn what all the gibberish means!!

i'll be catching the train to enrolment, but maybe one day i'll have a go at driving in peak.. should be fun

at North Sydney they sat down and explain our timetables. On thursdays i gotta be there at 8am until 6pm with a 3 hour break in the middle.

Hey mishka you said you live 30-40 mins away from strathfeidl where do u live?

 

[cro_angel]

mishka that totally makes sense!
hmm tute group 4 looks ok.. but whats with 2 being on at the same time?
so we dont need to go to uni on thursdays.. but thats our prac day im guessing?

my timetable is confusing..

 

[cro_angel]

mmm ive noticed quite a few tute groups have double up tutes.. and tute group 8 has only like 3 tutes (when most have 6) eh?
i saw somewhere that we have a tutorial selection thingo during o week so i guess itll come together then

 

[mishka]

yeah, there's probably a simple explanation for it. and yes, thursdays are our prac days!! how exciting!! hopefully i'll be able to get a school closer to home so i don't have to travel too far every week i guess all that sort of stuff will have to be organised soon - maybe o week as well??!!

it'd be cool if some of us were in the same lectures and tutorials, obviously cro_angel will be in some of mine

i live out campbelltown way, so it's probably going to be more like 45-50 mins in peak hour traffic. oh well, at least i can catch a train directly to strathfield, cos our line is linked with a few others.

i just found THE best page on ACU's intranet: click me!

according to this, every subject has 2 hours of lectures and 1 hour of tutorials every week. so for the B Ed (Prim)-ers that means 15 hours every week in our first year.

now maybe we can work out this timetable....
