LANGUAGE
Language variation and change
Understand that languages have different written and visual communication systems, different oral traditions and different ways of constructing meaning (ACELA1475)
Resource 1. This can be any resource you choose (eg. An online webpage ie. Youtube clip, a worksheet, a novel, a story etc) to describe and address to meet the requirements of the content descriptor above. Please see the assessment pdf for requirments.
Please provide a link (url) and screenshot for the chosen resource.
LITERATURE
Literature and context
Discuss texts in which characters, events and settings are portrayed in different ways, and speculate on the authors’ reasons (ACELT1594)
Resource 2. This can be any resource you choose (eg. An online webpage ie. Youtube clip, a worksheet, a novel, a story etc) to describe and address to meet the requirements of the content descriptor above. Please see the assessment pdf for requirments.
Please provide a link (url) and screenshot for the chosen resource.
LITERACY
Texts in context
Identify the point of view in a text and suggest alternative points of view (ACELY1675)
Resource 2. This can be any resource you choose (eg. An online webpage ie. Youtube clip, a worksheet, a novel, a story etc) to describe and address to meet the requirements of the content descriptor above. Please see the assessment pdf for requirments.

Further information is below for guidance!
1. Find an appropriate resource that has already been created for each of the 3 above content descriptors – eg. ACELA1475, ACELY1594, ACELT1675. Please post the url of the resource described as well as a screenshot!
2. Explained the resource and its relevance to support the students learning of content
3. Assessing students learning of each content and strand. How I would evaluate its relation and effectiveness.
Back up this assessment discussion with research that supports the effectiveness of the assessment strategy you have chosen. So you will discuss how you will assess students (this is the ‘concrete example’ bit in the rubric), why this is a good choice of strategy (i.e. the links to content area & grade level) and mention the evidence you have that this is a good choice (to cover the ideas about ‘contemporary practice’).
Please see pdf for detailed assessment instructions and the rubric!
Please note:
‘Folio’ is a pretty loose term for a collection of artifacts and ideas. So you presentation format can be equally loose (not like the rigid structure of essays).
• Include headings and subheadings.
• Paste the screenshots where you think that they make the most sense.
• Think about including diagrams or tables if they work with your assessment, not to say that they particularly relate to this assessment, but they are relevant to folios
• Don’t spend too much time on making it ‘look’ good. It’s the content that we’ll be focussed on 😉
One area where there is some rigidity is the referencing & citations. We are still expecting to see lots of support from research and citations for any ideas which are not your own (e.g. if you steal a lesson plan/activity from the internet, cite your inspiration)
I am open as to how you set this folio out but please use Times New Roman Font size 12 and double spacing, APA 6th ed referencing.
Any questions please contact me asap!
