Study Group

Do you know if the power points will be post before? @Oaktree For courses I've done, it's always posted after, along with the recording.

@tyme

For the unit that is up the first 5 sessions PowerPoints are already available. I have always had them ahead of time when I have studied in the past but I suppose every lecturer may be different

Oh! So you're saying that for one unit you've got the slides, but not another? @Oaktree

I wonder if you can email them about it?

@tyme

The one email I have received has said to keep questions for tomorrow. I guess we will find out more at orientation.

Hey @Oaktree @MJG017 @Blackcloud ,

How's everyone going with their orientation, courses etc? @Oaktree , you start tomorrow?

@Blackcloud , where are you? I hope you are okay. I haven't heard from you. No pressure if you are busy. I just wanted you to know we are thinking of you.

@MJG017 - how's it all going?

@tyme I'm here, I just haven't gotten the time to reply. The orientation (we call it the program induction) today went well, though it's obviously very much repetitive especially considering that I'm already doing this cert iv course. Hence I'm already familiar with the whole process of inductions/orientations in general now also considering that I've also done other courses in the past too.

Just yesterday, I started applying for this other cert 4 course (accounting) that I did prior to taking the cert 4 of I.T and it was a cert 4 course where I'm still left with having 2 units left that I still need to pass in order to complete/graduate from that (accounting) course. I hope and pray to god that I can pass both these last 2 units/subjects this semester before this semester ends halfway through this year so that I'd be able to graduate from it AND start applying for an undergraudate degree afterwards.

I'm still gonna be doing the cert 4 of I.T along with the cert 4 of accounting tho but with cert 4 of I.T i'm just gonna be doing that in part time mode instead of full time. Good thing you can do more than one program/course in a semester, just as long as you know that the units you're gonna be doing in both courses dont end up clashing with one another and you dont end up overloading your study load and all.

Hey guys,

I went to Tafe orientation today. I met a friend at her train station because she was a bit anxious about taking the train. We only got there 40 minutes early. That’s pretty good for me as I am always super early everywhere. Must be my Army training. Anyway really no new information today. It was basically just have you managed to log on and this is where you find things online. I did get to mention to the lecturer that the courses weren’t loaded for tomorrow yet so they handled that at the lunch break. Now tonight I have power points to print out. I also got to have a discreet chat with her about my learning plan. She likes to work with students to help themselves who are on these plans. I told her I was hoping that I didn’t need to use it but it was for just in case.

You have totally summed up all the observations I've had of you. It really must be the army training @Oaktree

You know what? I was only thinking again tonight how far you have come. It pretty much brings tears to my eyes. From what I've seen, in such a short time, there has been immense growth and changes (even if you haven't noticed).

You sound totally on top of everything.

I'm so glad we have this group to bounce ideas off each other @Blackcloud @MJG017 🙂 and others following along

@tyme

Yep 3hours on legal and ethics in the morning tomorrow and 3 hours on peer work practices in the afternoon. Probably come back here freaking out about the amount of homework tomorrow

@tyme

Thank you so much, that really means a lot. I haven’t really noticed many improvements except that I have tried harder to get along with certain people here on Sane. Online relationships are not always easy but I have had some lovely feedback. I got thanked for the effort the other day…
