<p>As for my schedule, this is what I plan on signing up for in April:</p>

Honors/ AP Biology (two course sequence)
Honors Spanish 4
Honors English 3 (not a fan of English)

<p>@nate42: What was your paper on? Mine was on the effectiveness of the No Child Left Behind Act. </p>
<p>Sent from my ADR6350 using CC</p>
<p>@evanb1996: It was on human rights violations in many countries. I had to do a video, power point and a research paper. It was very long and took me almost 4 days to complete. </p>
<p>Whats your position on the “No Child Left Behind” act?</p>
<p>@nate42: I feel that NCLB has been very ineffective. I think Bush had some visions for the bill, but the execution and provisions were very flawed. For example, the use of multiple choice tests for evaluation does not uphold the challenging nature that was described in Title 1 of the bill. </p>

<p>Sooo…I just found out that a little under half of my school is failing at least one class and about half of sophomores are failing. The APs are being canceled left and right and it looks like 7 people will be in AP lang alone. Ridiculous…</p>

<p>@oreodeese: This summer, I’m going to do a journalism program at UF, a creative writing program at Kenyon (If I get in, that is… Decisions haven’t been sent out yet), possibly a local writing workshop, and I might be interning with a local magazine… I really like writing, in case you didn’t notice, haha. If you have a major area of interest, I’d suggest finding summer programs related to it. Some deadlines may have passed already, but there’s definitely programs that you can apply to. 
You also might want to look into dual enrolling if that’s an option where you are?</p>
<p>@DFTBA505</p>
<p>Im in Virginia ,but I live in a small area where there isnt really anything. Im interested in science so wanted to try and do research but its all for juniors and seniors. </p>
<p>Is anyone doing research already?</p>
<p>Wow I haven’t been on in forever… I am way too busy.</p>
<p>@evanb1996: True, I agree. Also, I am most likely taking Honors Psychology through NCVPS next year. I wondering if you still enjoy the class and do you think it’s hard? I will have AP Biology, AP English and Honors Pre- Calc when I can take it, I hope that’s not too much to handle in one semester…</p>
<p>@oreodeese: I plan on going to SVSM, which is a 1 month residential program that only accepts 250 applicants. It focuses on high school students that love science and math and want to be challenged even more. If I am not accepted, I will most likely take a few classes at the local community college and rack up a ton of volunteer hours. </p>
<p>Most likely I will take these classes:</p>
<p>Honors Lab Bio/ AP Biology (2 class sequence)
Honors Eng./ AP English Language (2 class sequence)
Honors Pre Calculus
Honors Psychology
Honors Physics
Honors US History (history bores me to death)</p>
<p>I cannot take Honors Spanish 4, due to schedule conflicts with Physics and Pre Calc. Which makes me very mad because it’s an easy “A”</p>
<p>@nate42: I still enjoy Honors Psych through NCVPS. The first six chapters were very interesting (can’t remember all six by name but I know Biology of the Nervous System and Sleep/Consciousness were two of them). My teacher is really nice and helpful (and a quick replier through text messaging). I love the format of the class and I feel that the teacher allows for each of us to move at our own pace, so we can take time to learn what we need to the most. But, I know some classes have to turn in certain assignments on a given day (which is good, but I think it rushes progress and learning). Plus, we take pre-assessments, which help gauge what you need to study or work on the most for the chapter. I hope that you do take the course because my guidance counselor said that is what is considered a “foundation course” (not sure of her interpretation right now) and she said she is trying to get more people involved with NCVPS courses in the future. </p>

<p>@evanb1996: Wow that sounds very cool and interesting! Being able to move at your own pace must be very nice and texting your teacher is helpful in case you aren’t understanding the material. What does a typical day consist of in your Psych class? Oh yeah and is homework a issue at all? I will have track and 2 very difficult and time consuming classes when I take it.</p>
<p>Wish me luck everyone! I have my regional envirothon competition tomorrow! Hope our teams makes it to state.</p>
<p>@nate: First, I log in and go straight to the announcements section of the course to see if the teacher is giving specific instructions or a warning about due dates or whatever. Then, I go to the gradebook section to see if the teacher graded any of my assignments. If I am starting a new chapter, I will read the objectives for the unit and take the pre-assessment for the unit (not counted as grade). Then, I go into the content reading section (not required but highly suggested to learn concepts early on) and skim for important details. Then I work on the assignments (vocabulary is usually first assignment, then whatever else, a vocabulary quiz, and summative assignment). I usually only work for 90 minutes a day, but I usually log on during the weekends or on weekday nights to catch up or just get ahead. Homework isn’t a big deal except for the studying for quizzes and tests. I’ve been fine with the course (99 average for first nine weeks) thus far.</p>

<p>@evanb1996: That’s sounds pretty cool and laid back. I bet it is really nice being able to see what you have in the course at all times. As for quizzes and tests, how are those set up? Do you just take your own notes and study them at home? Also,there must be a way to ensure the student isn’t cheating on them.
I better get my own laptop so I can access my work at all times and get ahead when I know I will have a busy week in my other classes.
I am glad you enjoy the course, I hope I do also. </p>

<p>@nate: Quizzes and tests are multiple choice in some way. The pre assessment I took yesterday had 4 choices for each question like EOCs and SATs. Sometimes, quizzes can be the same format or be like matching (Numbers 1-5 and match letters A-E). My teacher usually allows two attempts at the tests and quizzes (I don’t know if the other ones are like that). As in terms of cheating, Blackboard is said to shut the test down and put in an automatic zero if it finds any open tabs or windows that deal with the topic of the test. But from there, it is the facilitator’s job to monitor you during tests and quizzes for any notes you took on paper or what not.</p>

<p>OKAY GUYS I NEED YOUR HELP!!
Ap physics with Ap chem or Honors Physiology with Ap chem?</p>
<p>So I’m currently in Sophomore year and I am going to become a Junior next year. I am planning to take two sciences next year with these two choices: Ap physics with Ap chem or Honors Physiology with AP chem.</p>
<p>-also note that i going to be taking two other AP classes which are APUSH and AP Language.</p>
<p>I’d go w/ chem & physiology.</p>
