IBob Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Hi Tozza, just did your survey. I note there us no option for New Zealand (so I identified as Australia). There are a few Kiwis here, you may want to look into that? All the best with your survey. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skippydiesel Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 An additional observation; No proper section for RAA (recreational) level aircraft - most of the people on this Forum will be involved with aircraft in this category Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to maximise your assignment results, this might help: Use Capitals for Year 11 and I. Make your report easier to read by breaking it up into sentences, which start with a Capital and end with a full stop. Use an apostrophe with words like here’s (which is actually here is). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pluessy Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 It would also make a better impression if the manufacturer's names were spelt correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBob Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Hey guys, enough of the unsolicited grammar lessons! I had no difficulty understanding what Tozza has posted, and surely it's the exercise here that matters? If you don't like his pitch, you're not obliged to engage. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgwilson Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 (edited) Yeah he is only Year 11. I don't think they put a great deal of emphasis on punctuation, use of Upper/Lower case or spelling in 2020s education. The objective is to get the message across and that has been achieved.

rgmwa Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Getting the message across is fine, but if he's going to write a report at the end of this, then hopefully he'll get the spelling and grammar right... or at least rely on the computer to get it right. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onetrack Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Any internet search immediately eliminates capital letters, so you can't expect the younger generations to figure out where capital letters need to be applied. So many of the "rules of English" that were belted into us in the 40's, 50's and 60's are now completely ignored, and you can apparently adjust all the rules of English to suit yourself, in todays world. Ebonics are filtering through American English via the Internet, to detrimentally affect the English language, worldwide. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flightrite Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Whilst spelling/grammar has always been overrated it’s something that employers look at closely, as well as the psycho crap! The best person for a job is no longer the one who will get the job, it’s the ‘right’ person! Now to go see what this survey is all about. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually got an interview because out of 100+ applicants, mine was the only hand written one - although this was in the '90s. And yes, I've done Tozzas survey 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps that’s Australia’s problem: we don’t expect enough of our kids. To our north are millions of hard-working kids who not only learn the complexities of their own language and writing scripts, but also master the English language and the Latin script. Australian exam results are dominated by Asian kids who can write our language better than most of us natives. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tozza73 Posted February 28, 2022 Author Share Posted February 28, 2022 Thankyou, what made me pick this subject is that I really wasn't sure what aircraft people liked from regions around the world so i put out this simple little survey 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tozza73 Posted March 10, 2022 Author Share Posted March 10, 2022 Hello everyone, i just wanted to come on here one last time and thank everyone for participating in my survey. It really means a lot and I got plenty of responses and I might even post a link to my school report for it so that you guys can have a look. I also wanted to let you know that I have closed the survey for responses and I have placed a nice lovely thank you message there too so let me know if you guys would be interested in seeing the report and results and I'll post them here if you want. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
