Guys it is most likely that the Mod A question will be about context remember that the module is comparative study of texts and Contexts

It will probably how changed contexts result in change values being expressed
changed values? is that change in values from today to the futuristic worlds' values? or that context shapes values?

I am not 100% sure, I havent had my trial yet...its next week but my assessment task we had a choice of questions and the one i did was

"Explain how a change in contexts can result in changed values being reflected in texts"

Yeah i understand that is basically saying "how has context shaped meaning" (meaning of the wild or meaning in terms of values)

This will be a good question for BNW/Bladerunner but the Powerplay one i heard will be really random, extrememly bad. I think i will try to pull something out for that one.

the central concern of "in the wild" is humanitys interaction with the natural world

so it will be something to do with that
humanity's interaction with nature

Not necessarily, past HSC questions, all of them did not focus on this. However, u are right when u say that it is the central theme, but they can ask u anything concerning what's in the syllabus.

Does anyone have an actual list of past trial paper questions for modules? Ive never seen or read any previous ones, and Im rather suprised how random they sounds. If not, is there any sites I can see about the CSSA Trials?

u guys have to write 3 respones..... I only have to write 2... and im freaking out

we havnt completed the 3rd module so we were told it won't be assessed but we should attempt the question.... pfft.. like who would write a full essay, or half an essay for that matter, if it's not asessed???

but seriously 2 hours is no weher near enough...

I'm hoping theres like a creative task for one of the modules at least.. like say a conveerstaion or something....

I thought it was to encourage indigenous Australinas to live like all others
