I am so lost for my English Ext 2 project and my Society Project (I do 2u Ancient History, and I can hardly cope with that, so I wouldn't even think about doing extension). We don't even have a bloody teacher for Ext English yet! Class hasn't been put together or anything. Bloody hopeless.

with the hisotry one - its a study of the historians not the people isn't it... I was thinking about doing death of Kenedy cause i find that very interesting... But my teacher thinks its better to do anicent events as they have more historical evidence on them...
I think history will end up being my hardest one to pick.

No probs :)

What you are looking at is an historical debate or different interpretations of events through different schools of historiography. Or you could look at an historiographical school on its own and explore how it has impacted the study of history.

I looked at revisionism and its legitimacy as a school of historiography (and comparing it with 'holocaust revisionism' which is not a valid historical approach in itself).
