We do Expert Systems at our school. I think its by far the easiest and is useful if youre also doing Higher Computing.

No hypermedia is quite similar (well not a lot, but a bit) to Multimedia which was our Computing optional topic(dont know if still is as Computing Higher has changed since I sat it last year).

As far as I know Louise the Higher Computing optional topics are really the same, re-arranged in a different order!

Computing Programmings been dropped tho!

If you think Information Organisation is boring then I doubt there is much hope for Hypermedia. tongue.gif

I cant remember how many marks I need. I think I need something like that though. How many percent is hypermedia worth again?

It seems as if almost everyone in the whole of the course is doing Hypermedia. Why??? Do the teachers have an aversion to the other topics?

Is there a secret underground bunker somewhere that the IS teachers go down into and plot against us, intending to bore us to death with repetitive bits of useless knowledge which we will almost never again use? Do they want us to go about telling others to try and avoid this subject because it is so boring?

Oh, I'm sooooo sick of this boring subject (May have something to do with being stuck at this computer screen for 3 periods straight, having ECDL 1st, and then double IS... Groan....)

(P.s. - I'm actually in a surprisingly good mood, considering... smile.gif )

... which is this Thursday. His excuse has been he's doing 1st year reports...

Which don't come out till the 17th of May. I'm sure he could take some time out of his very busy schedule to mark something which could actually help us know what to revise, and let us get appeals, if we need em.
