ISP Topics? (1 Viewer)

[tooheyz]

hey everyone ...

i was told that an ISP was part of the SOR course after i went around saying nasty things bout my skool when they handed out the ISP project ...

well anyway, to everyone out there who is doing SOR, which ISP topic are you's doing?

i am completey lost, but its not due till mid this year, so i'm not stressing all that much... not yet.

by the way, ISP= Interest Study Project

hmmm last yr when i did my ISP, my qstn (cant rmb it exactly) had sumthing 2 do w/ charles darwin n those 2 books he published, origin of species' n 'descent of man' i think they were called...n the reaction of the churches n stuff. problem was that there wasnt a whole lot of gud info on it...heaps of books n stuff but they didnt actually answering my qstn...i ended up writing the entire essay on the spot, then went 2 the library n got sum quotes, shoved them in2 my essay where they sounded ok...n got 19/20 haha

heya! thats what i do for alot of my assignments, though this yr im gonna TRY to put more effort into everything...

i still have no idea what to do, but im thinking bout doing RE and the MEDIA... i'll probz link religion up with the movie and how religion is portrayed and represented or something ....

right now im thinking bout starwars (jedi relgion). did u know that there are like 500 ppl in england who actually started the JEDI relgion? dam...

yeah thats the only movie i can remeber which represents relgion in some way... another one is joan on arc and stigmata... and the exorcist

I'm doing religion and biogaphy and am focussing on the life of the 14th Dalai Lama, mainly after the communist takeover of Tibet. I've barely done any work on it yet though.

My question was: How do people perceive God in the 21st Century?

It was soooooooooooooooo simple. I did it the night before. lol. 60/60. Simple. And it was pretty bloody good, too.

Dogma is the best movie. I cannot belive the Church were telling people to boycot it. It is so not anti-church.

I did my HSC in 2001 .. but I did my ISP on the architecture of the Notre Dame and what it represented .. or something along those lines ...

imho the isp is a particularly foolish assignment, i *know* we should respect learning for its broader and enduring educational worth, but when an entire year is geared towards one final exam, its hard to value doing a project that proscribes any relevance to the syllabus itself.

I revolted, and basically wrote an art essay about how the art of the Italian baroque acted as propaganda for the papacys disseminations of the time.

just try to make it appear as though you have had an extensive engagement with your subject matter through your log book
- oh and another thing! can someone explain the board of studies futile obsession with making us keep diaries to write essays?!

[superboobies!]

yeah, what's with that whole process journal thing? i have ext 2 english, drama, and i'm being made to keep a journal of material for english. i'm crap at journals, and i always end up doing them the night before.
maybe the BOS wants to be more compassionate about the processes we go through to achieve major works etc? is this an act of consideration????

 

[tooheyz]

yeah i dont mind the journals.. just takes me like an hour to do the day before its due =)

i guess its a good way for the teachers to see that we are actually doing the work and the processes we went through...
