Hist 363

SpectreFire
edited December 2009 in General
I know there's a few history majors here, even then, this is still kind of a long shot, but is anyone taking Hist 363 this semester?

If you are... was there a lecture yesterday? Cause I went to class, and there was absolutely no one there. And also, did Ede send out the textbook yet? And has the question for the first short report been handed out yet?

    no there was no lecture yesterday. he cancelled it, hence why we didnt have tutorials this week. also, he hasnt sent out the textbook yet either.

    Oh good, at least that means I didn't miss out anything.

    Any word on the short essay though for stream A? Is that still going to be due on the 22nd?

    off topic, but ede is an awesome prof right?
    I think he's the best one I've had at sfu so far.

    I mean it's my first term, so I can't compare him to many teachers, but he's a great prof... too bad the material is so terrible/boring.

    For HIST 110 that is, though I'm pretty sure 363 is just a continuation of that.

    hey are you doing stream a or b?
  • SpectreFire
    edited September 2009
    I've decided to do stream b, I realized having to had in a series of papers was not at all convenient compared to just handing in one.

    Do you know the criteria for the research proposal? Like what exactly are we supposed to explain in the 3 pages, and how many sources do we need to cite for it? Do we need to incorporate those sources into the proposal? Or just list them?

    i have no idea dude, i just kinda threw something together that sorta made sense and wrote an annotated bibliography for it.

    Huh. Guess Ede's not one for instructions.

    well you gotta go up to him and ask. then he'll give you a boat load of details. i emailed him earlier and he replied with some helpful comments.

    When I took his class last year pretty much everyone failed the research proposal then too. Luckily he let everyone resubmit without taking any marks off.

    i took his 400 level class and it was the same thing

    Have you re-submitted you proposal yet?

    Is there a specific due date he wanted for those?
  • hikin
    edited October 2009
    yeah i resubmitted it on wednesday. i think he wants it back asap, dont think theres a penalty though.
  • SpectreFire
    edited October 2009
    Ok, as long as there's no penalty. Because honestly, between midterms and more midterms, I am in no mood at at all to redo my proposal. I'll probably hand it in on Wednesday.
  • hikin
    edited October 2009
    i have no real clue as to if theres a grade penalty but thats what i'm guessing cause a ton of people didnt hand it in on wednesday
  • SpectreFire
    edited October 2009
    I wouldn't be surprised, I mean, this is midterms week, I'm sure he understands that everyone probably has more important things to do this week than re-writing a proposal.

    Where did you get most of your sources from? Jstor?

    Hey Hikin, did you get the email from Ede? If I read this right, he's pushing the research essay date to Monday?
