thanks but im actually so scared because mod c is the only mod i have hope for. anyone else do anything completely diiferent then tech 🙏
I did i talked about the migrant experience which is lowks a bit cliche but i didn't even think of technology. mine was a discussion on the conveniences and inconveniences of both my home country/australia and a lil bit of the going back to basics/roots part. i thought i cooked until the whole world did technology so idk :((

don't worry about inventions, you don't have to take the stimulus literally as long as it's related, well written and structured like a discursive you'll do well

yea I thought about the inventions which confused me but looking back I think my piece about truth was pretty good. The markers will probably get tired of reading all the pieces on AI and technologies so they'll appreciate some different ideas

i picked up on a pattern, every even year there's a weird mod c question and in 2020 there was a 20 marker creative, so i deduced that in 2024 there was gonna be a discursive because nesa loves to brutally molest most of their students.

ya i think unique ideas and a cohesive structure of discursive will stand out to markers

yes plus the question did say 'ideas' from the text. to me, technology/inventions just read as a statement to convey the main idea of convenience and going back to basics. im sure the markers will appreciate another interpretation of the stimulus. as long as we made it quite obvious that we've incorporated the stimulus it should be fine i believe.

i pretty much did the same thing its legible, the main part of the stimulus you had to speak to was the part about choosing a path of less convinience, i think i did pretty well but i had too much time on my hands ended up filling out the booklet with a full final page of simlies and wtvr

i just talked abt how it was more convient to adhere to the australian way of life, as "going back to your roots" was harder to fullfil when language and culture becomes a barrier idk

Your argument should be clear and cohesive enough that the marker should be able to understand your position from the thesis without explicit reference. That's usually how it is in English.
