Belonging Question Predictions. (1 Viewer)

[mistress-mine]

Greetings,
I was reviewing the previous examinations pertaining to belonging and was wondering, hypothetically, what this years paper would be predicated on. Personally, I believe that connections to community may make an appearance. What do you think?

My English teacher and I said the same thing I assume it will come up.

 

[TheOptimist]

Something to do with identity perhaps?

 

[mistress-mine]

Identity is a very salient option as well.

 

[SpiralFlex]

Acceptance?

 

[mistress-mine]

I believe acceptance was implicit in the 2009 question ‘Understanding nourishes belonging. A lack of understanding prevents it.’.

 

[SanjoyM]

Perhaphs, nuturing self-identity through forming connections to the larger world ?
Memories, moments etc..
It definitely will not be: Relationships, places or community, as these questions have asked in the past! If you notice the pattern, every year it is based on a new concept of Belonging

Yes! That question can also be linked to relationships etc..

 

[mistress-mine]

Connections to the larger world was asked in 2010, ‘An individual’s interaction with others and the world around them can enrich or limit their experience of belonging‘

I so hope we get something like "How does belonging lead to an enriching sense of identity or something" I will legit laugh to myself in reading time (and then probably cry depending on the creative lol)

 

[wavess]

Something to do with challenges?

 

[SanjoyM]

Whatever it is, it probably will not be anything we have not practiced/studied.
However, BOS does have the tendency of being unadulterated sadists (2011 Mod B)

Reckon they would specify a text again?

 

[Surdo]

Something about identity or experiences I have a feeling

 

[mistress-mine]

In all likelihood, yes. They feed upon the misery of guileless students.

Very likely. It is their way of "cracking down prepared responses"
I'm doing speeches for Mod B and apparently Atwood and Sadat are very likely to be specified.
This Mod C question, if it comes in the HSC will kill people as well lol How has the study of conflicting perspectives shaped your understanding of the limitations of representation?

 

[mistress-mine]

Or perchance the fates truly despise us and we get asked to write a speech for conflicting perspectives. *shudder*

Haha! It's actually not that bad though. It may seem daunting at first, but moulding essays into speeches is less arduous than the aforementioned question.

 

[deswa1]

Speeches aren't that bad to write- that essay would be a shocker imo. I would probs take the line that through conflicting perspectives, we come to the conclusion that no matter the extent of a representation, conflicting views will always have some sort of say- like you can't make your piece SO one sided that all other views are non-existent. This is a limitation of representation etc.
