What students learn in AC9E10LE01
This unit helps students build a clear, usable understanding of Analyse representations of individuals, groups and places and evaluate how.... The goal is not to memorise one answer pattern. Students should be able to explain the idea, recognise it in a new example and apply it in a short practice or worksheet task.
- Start with the main idea: analyse representations of individuals, groups and places and evaluate how they reflect their context in literary texts by First Nations Australian, and wide-ranging Australian and world authors.
- Use concrete examples, pictures, oral explanation and short written responses before moving to independent practice.
- analysing the ways in which cultural stories may be retold and adapted across a range of contexts, such as the story of the “anti-hero”, and evaluating how the “anti-hero” reflects the context analysing how humour is used to represent the underdog in Australian texts and evaluating how the underdog reflects the context
- Finish with mixed questions so students must choose the correct strategy rather than copy the last example.
