stuff on raw- could be useful...


The novel RAW, by Scott Monk, intended for young adults, clearly informs the responder of the effects institutionalisation has on an individual. The text reveals the impacts it encompasses on the behaviours of those who are placed in institutions. A definition of an institution could be “an organisational pattern of group behaviour established, and usually accepted as a fundamental part of a culture”, therefore; the institutions refer to a psychological condition which has been brought about due to a depersonalised environment. Automatic behaviours often occur as a result of institutionalization, such as, expressionless faces, along with a general apathy. Their personal appearances, as well as personal morals become less important. Institutionalisation is likely to surface, if the residence in which their identities, interests and strengths are not respected. There are several types of institutions such as, Education systems, Legal systems, Economic systems, along with Health and Social Culture systems, to name a few.

When Brett first enters the farm, his previous experiences and non-conforming behaviour results in him stealing from an inmate. In one instance, the character of Josh demonstrates to the responder that institutionalisation can indeed be a positive experience. Josh’s positive compliance has allowed him to develop such skills, thus causing him to stay on the Farm, to learn more from Sam. The reason for this is to give superfluous insight at what the institution is really like. From this it has been made clear that Brett must face the consequences that his actions have brought about. On the other hand, Brett’s relationship with Sam grows, leading him realise “the old bloke was alright”. For Brett on the other hand, his time at the Farm has been negative, having no effect on his behaviour. More so, the manifested pressure caused while on is institutionalised. All these mentions texts can be segmented into Compliance, Protest, and enforcement. For some, the experiences faced while in an institution can be positive, while others, negative. This movie also depicts the behaviours which institutionalisation brings. Co-incidentally, this occurs just as Brett has decided to “start again” as an alternative of ending up in another detention facility, which the farm represents. Towards the end of the text, Brett Dalton’s experiences have again proved to be useless in regards to his behaviours, as he again steals.

this s useful... and good luck 2 all! :)

Re: related texts for RAW

hay guys !
im using a documentry called "the homies", 4 corners ! & Brewbaker, movie .

The problem with using shawshank is that sooo many of you guys are doing it and the markers will be reading one after the other .. & it will become repetive!
my advice .. try do an additional source that isnt too common!
using shawshank your going to have to justify ur answers really really well !

Goodluck =)

I am really bad at english!! can someone please help me!!

heres the question:

"Often what an institution perceives as ‘beneficial’, the individual may have an alternate or even opposite point of view. Write an essay exploring this idea by referring to your prescribed text and two related texts of your choosing.

Your prescribed text is Raw by Scott Monk
Please note: Other texts of your own choosing must be related texts you have not studied in class. Length (1500 words - 2000 words)"

Thanks!!
