Professor Faida Kaibryn could not believe that her term at the magic school would be coming to an end soon, in some respects she felt as if she had been here for ages and in many others she knew she had barely registered on any scale at the school. She didn't think she had made an impact with the students and she certainly didn't think she had made any friends or enemies among the staff at the school. Perhaps if she had more time she would have put herself out there more to get to know students and staff alike but there hadn't seemed to be much point when she would be finishing up and the full time professor returning for the next school year. She waited for the students to arrive, sitting at her desk with pen and sheaves of paper before her. When they entered and sat at their seats she glanced up at them and gave a brief smile. "Today I want you to ask me any questions that you might have, any thing in relation to the topics covered so as to clarify them before your exam. You'll have the next two weeks to prepare for the exam and I hope that you will use that time wisely. So for today, ask me what you need to and take notes" she put her pen down and waited to see if any of the students would ask her anything at all. ----------------------------------- Any questions that the students ask will be answered as if in an interactive lesson. For full marks for this class - please ask a question relating to one of the topics covered this term. For extra credit, simply do a reply post to the professors answer given. -----------------------------------Muggle Studies,6,5 |

As Isabelle entered the muggle studies classroom for the fifth time that year she was glad to find out that they would be using this lesson for study. With a smile, she opened up her muggle studies textbook and took out all of her notes so she could revise. One page of notes in particular from the second lesson had intrigued the Ravenclaw who did not understand half the words that she had written. The French knew that she needed to ask the professor what it all meant in simpler words and she contemplated it for a while as she watched the professor walk around the room answering everyone else's questions. It wasn't until a few minutes before the lesson ended that Isabelle tentatively managed to raise her hand and she took a deep breath as the professor made her way over to her. "W-what is... s-suff... rage b-bill?" she asked, hoping the professor knew what she was talking about. |

Danielle attended her Muggle class although she was quite confident that she would do well on the exams. Seated next to a Ravenclaw girl, Isabelle, she waited for the lesson to begin.She took out her notes on the class and her Muggle pens which she liked to use for taking notes. The professor then glanced up at them, smiled and started the class officially. Just like in her other classes, there would not be any new lesson since exams are fast approaching. All Professor Kaibryn wanted was for the students to ask her questions. Since she had done her homework on anything Muggle, she has deeply understood the lessons. However, she wanted to ask the professor's opinion on some Muggle concerns. It was still related to their lesson though but just an opinion question. She raised her hand and when acknowledged, she asked, "Professor,if you don't mind,is their any alternative to using electricity?You know,other kinds of electricity sources." She has read somewhere that electricity was getting more expensive and coal may have reached its limit. |

Faida waited to see if anyone wished to ask her anything and was delighted that Danielle Corelli was taking the opportunity. The question was an excellent one as well and Faida addressed her answer to the whole class. "There are actually many different kinds of power besides electricity that muggles use" she still realised how much she disliked calling people she had known half her life as muggles but the students here wouldn't understand them by any other terms, "there is wind energy, in many countries there are actual wind farms, it probably sounds ridiculous to many of you and may conjure up hilarious images for others but these are a very real sustainable source of energy. There is solar power, tidal and hydro power as well as hydroelectric power, nuclear power, the usual fossil fuel types like coal, oil and natural gas and there are a few others too but those are the main ones" she smiled again at the girl before answering a few other questions posed to her. By the end of the class it was Isabelle Vernier's turn to ask her a question, Faida listened as the girl posed it and then gave her a kindly smile before answering, "Well ... women's suffrage means the ... right for women to vote in elections. Women didn't have any rights at one time, eventually even when women did have some rights they weren't very equal ... some will say they still aren't and indeed in many countries they are not but here in New Zealand in 1887 the first bill was put before congress or government ... now although the bill was introduced to the government at that time, it did not actually pass. A bill is a proposition if you like, that is put before the government to vote on. If enough people vote on it then it passes into law, once it is passed then it becomes an act or a statute. Anyone thereafter that breaks this law, is behaving illegally and can be arrested" she hoped she hadn't lost the girl in her explanation. She looked at all the other students before speaking again, "the women's suffrage bill became legally known as the Electroral Act of 1983 which made New Zealand the first country to grant women the right to vote in parliamentary elections but ... not only did it grant women, it granted all women of all races." Faida found herself smiling once again at the girl and looked about to see if there were any more questions or if Isabelle, Danielle or anyone else was happy enough with the replies they got. |
