Talk:School subjects

Let's see if we can get this page to be about classes in general, and which ones are required. Then we can link to other pages that have information on specific classes . -- Andy 20:01, 24 Dec 2004 (EST)

Alright, check the CS pages for the format I've started them in. I suppose it doesn't matter if we're consistent, but either way... ~Chrax

yea, im not exactly sure how they work, but we should try to get them catagorized as well, like all of them in school subjects, and then math in a math catagory and such Andy 21:29, 24 Dec 2004 (EST)

I can't see any way that an extra math (or any subject, but math as an example) page would do anything but add clutter. Since each page (as I envision them) will have an official description as well as an academite's description of the class, there's not much need for a commentary page. However it might be nice to have the math teachers and math classes all on one page. Perhaps the teachers page and class page ideas weren't the best way of approaching this. We can always get it how we want it and then remove old pages that don't fit in. ~Chrax

What did you do to my description of chemistry!!! --Squishypickle 22:38, 24 Dec 2004 (EST)

I put it back. I don't think it belongs there, but I'll let you deal with that. I'm tired of this for tonight. ~Chrax

Youre dumb. My description clearly describes what you do in chemistry: write letters with lines connecting them. And dots.

Stu, that's a terribly unhelpful link, as it refers to "attached" documentation, and there's nothing really in it. -Chrax

okay - Stuey

Out of curiosity, who would be interested in building this into a study guide? For example, topics in each class could be given a section on the class page or their own page in which we describe them as well as we can? Or should we just link to the Wikipedia for stuff like that, instead of reinventing the wheel? -Chrax

That seems like a good idea to me, you could start off by taking stuff from the study guides. --Andy 23:59, 6 Mar 2005 (EST)

I see that the Micro requirement has been added, but it seems that no one has mentioned the new requirement in CS: CP1 and VB, making a total of four CS/Bio courses for the Trailblazers and later classes. Would someone mind updating that? --Ben

I didn't know anything about that. Are they requiring VB (actually VBA), or just two CS courses? Anyway, as this is a wiki, you are free to update this yourself. Many of our contributors just graduated, and as such we don't get much news (and will increasingly stop looking for it). -Chrax

Yeah, they're requiring Computer Programming I and Visual Basic for Applications, along with Biology and Microbiology for 2007 and beyond, at least according to the updated requirements page on the Academy website. I just didn't want to update it and find out I have no authority to do so, I guess... oh well.
