This post is, mainly, for the Ombudsman, who asked about my assignments, how many, and what they were for. Also, I know he’s back in Menindee, stuck with no one, and not blogging at all would be the sign of a bad friend.

4 assessment down, 4 more to go:

  • Civil War and foreign diplomacy - 2,000 essay;
  • Civil War take-home exam;
  • Australian protest movement in the 60s - 1,500 word essay;
  • 1990s and the return to conservatism in Australia? - 1,500 word essay;
  • Teaching English professional development journal - 4,500 word journal;
  • Teaching English lesson plan and activity;
  • Teaching History - analysing influences, conceptions and practices in the history discipline - 3,500 essay + ‘creative’ pieces;
  • Teaching History sequence of 4 lesson plans

The worst part is, I just finished my ‘favourite’ of that list. Now it’s much of a muchness really.
