It got a little out of hand with the original movies. Despite everyone wearing red jackets, their collars had colors based on their departments. There were seven in total at that time:
Math or history didn’t bother you? The last time you had a class called “Science” was probably the same as the last time you had a class called “Math” and a class called “History”: elementary or junior high.
That’s a very American point of view. I had multiple science classes (Physics, Biology, Chemistry) and a single Math and History class each. (I’m from Germany)
The different math classes that I know of from the US (Trig, Calculus, etc.) are all just taught in Math class according to the school year you’re in.
I always had just one math class (the last one was “Math for physicists 3”, in the third semester at university) and what would “history” be split into as a school subject?
My high school offered US History, Religion History, World History, European History and 20th Century History. US Govt and Economics, Anthropology and Film History were also taught by the same dept and the credits went towards social studies requirements.
Elementary school was like that for me. Just “Math, Reading, Science, Social Studies.” I still don’t know how geography fell under the umbrella of social studies.
I once heard that there is a theory that things written on yellow is more memorable. Which is why the default original color for legal pads, post-its, and highlighters is yellow.
So yellow should be what ever you need to memorize more. So it depends on your teacher and how much of the subject matter needs to be memorized. I’d say it should be history as there are a lot of dates and minute details, but I could also understand it being used for any subject that needs memorization like foreign languages, science, and even math.
Blue and green are both calming colors so those should either be reserved for that classes that give you the most stress or the classes that benefit the most from being calm, like creative writing or music.
Red is an exciting color, use it on what ever subject you are most confident i or interested in.
I guess I think the bearded guy (wait…it that a beard or just a long mustache?) Is using my system correctly.
