    hey i was won­der­ing wat yhur grade 11 text­book name is because i need to ref­er­ence that for class.

    1. Enoch Lau’s avatar

      Ref­er­en­cing it usu­ally means you actu­ally used it. Since you obvi­ously haven’t used it, then you should have no need to ref­er­ence it.

    Hello Enouch

    I will be study­ing at Fort Street this year for yr 11. Since you were a former stu­dent can you give me any advice on the assign­ment type, work­load and the type of text and books you stud­ied on these fol­low­ing sub­jects
    – Eng­lish Advance) what books/​ text /​ topic and assign­ment you did )

    - Physic
    ( assign­ments you did, prac­tical, etc )

    Thank you for your time
    W.Y

      Hi W.Y.

      I must con­fess I can’t really remem­ber what books/​texts/​topics/​assignments I did in year 11 for Eng­lish. I think year 11 was when I did Oth­ello, but the teach­ers change books all the time (and not all classes do the same books) so even if I told you, it wouldn’t be much use. For phys­ics — again it’s too long ago and I’ve lost all com­puter files from back then apart from the ones I have up on this web­site. My best advice would be to pick up an up-​​to-​​date year 11 phys­ics text­book from the lib­rary and have a flick through it.

      As for work­load, Eng­lish requires the read­ing of set texts, which I found some­times a bit of a chore but you just need to press through with it. To do well in Eng­lish, you just need to start writ­ing your tasks early and allow time to refine and edit them. For phys­ics, you just need to be reg­u­lar in your study of the sub­ject, as it is a sub­ject that requires the mas­tery of one area to under­stand another. As for work­load, I would say good time man­age­ment con­quers any work­load that school provides. For phys­ics, a genu­ine interest in the sub­ject helps; if you’re doing it because you think it’ll improve your scal­ing or whatever, you’re wast­ing your time.

      If you have any more spe­cific ques­tions, feel free to ask!

    Hi W.Y., I will put in my two cents as another former stu­dent at Fort Street. It is also quite some time since year 11 for me, so things may well be dif­fer­ent. 2U Advanced Eng­lish for me included a study on “Power”, I think one of the core texts was Richard III but there were oth­ers. My advice is that, for both year 11 and 12, you need to start think­ing about pre­par­ing for Eng­lish tasks well in advance, includ­ing pre­par­ing gen­eric mater­i­als (both essays and cre­at­ive writ­ing pieces) that you can call upon in exams. You should try to find out the texts being stud­ied at school ahead of time, although you will know this soon enough once you start. Your fel­low stu­dents are likely to know which ones they are already. Apart from study­ing the actual texts well, it will also be a good idea to get hold of some good criticism/​analysis of the texts, includ­ing study guides.

    For Phys­ics, year 11 was rel­at­ively straight for­ward, and the cur­riculum pretty much fol­lowed the syl­labus. This makes things easier — get your hands on some qual­ity study mater­i­als (I think EXCEL guides were pop­u­lar back then, I don’t know if they still are) — but make sure you get an up-​​to-​​date edi­tion. A solid ground­ing in maths and “tra­di­tional” Phys­ics def­in­itely helps, but there is a lot of rote learn­ing in the cur­rent syl­labus, so be pre­pared for that.

    Hey again, umm just won­der­ing you said all your notes are copy­right. And on some docs its got copy­right 2003, doesnt that mean your copy­right has ended o.O Just curi­ous LOOL

    Reply

    1. Enoch Lau’s avatar

      Nope, it just means I wrote it in 2003.

      Reply

      1. Jenny’s avatar

        oh does that mean copy­right is still going?? And also do you reckon i can still use it? Im not sure when the syl­labus was last changed…

        Reply

        1. Enoch Lau’s avatar

          Yes I still have copy­right — copy­right in Aus­tralia lasts until 70 years after death of author.

          If you’re using it for per­sonal study, knock your­self out. But you can­not use it for com­mer­cial use or cre­ate deriv­at­ive works — see the licence at the footer of the page.

          As for whether it still matches the syl­labus, I’m not sure — you’ll have to use your judge­ment as to whether it matches what you’ve learnt at school.
