Signups for the event are now open as explained in the new Bell Tree World Championship 2024 thread!
also i'm so glad i'm leaving school next year, even though i'll miss the security of knowing everyone and being comfortable around people, i'm so ready to go to university.
I feel like I got all the tough teachers, or at least the quiz-happy ones. Dx I had a geometry quiz today, a science and Latin quiz tomorrow, another science quiz on Friday, and another Latin quiz next Tuesday. Overall, I've had eleven quizzes/tests. This is my freshman year of high school, it's been less than a month, and I'm only in one honors class- which has had the least quizzes of all. Is this normal for high school, or am I just unlucky? None of my friends of have had this much.
There are two grade nine English teachers, one who teaches standard and one honors class. The other one teaches only honors, which is who I have. My sister has honors to, but with the other teacher. Every English class, regardless of level (the translation is apparently supposed to be more difficult for honors), is reading The Odyssey. My sister's teacher gives them silent reading days two times a week, and they only have to read one chapter/book a week. I need to read eight chapters/books a week. ;-;
I'm sorry if this sounds whiny, but I'm frustrated with the work load. ^.^' I'm sure I will adjust eventually.
I just submitted a lab on Magnitude Estimation. Basically we did a lab on Thresholds of tactile sensory perception of sandpaper of a "standard" compared to other gradients of sandpaper to see if we could assign numerical values for how rough or how smooth the sandpaper was in comparison to the standard. And the experiment was a MESS! SOOOOO many limitations! SOOOOOO disorganized! The data was all over the place. The GAs were inconsistent with how they controlled for variables. So I wrote up my lab in proper APA format and kicked ass. I hope I get a good grade. They asked all these questions like "what does this experiment teach us about what we already know about thresholds?" NOTHING! (I said it nicer than that) Because in many ways it tested memory more than it did perceived magnitude estimation. The experiment was flawed. I listed ways it could be adjusted and modified to actually test what it should have been testing.
