Assessment - Language Study

SACE EXTERNAL

Task: For this assessment type, students complete an independent language study. The focus of study is an understanding of the use of spoken, non-verbal, visual, and/or written language by people in a chosen context beyond the classroom.
Students first select the context to undertake this study such as...
• workplace, training, or volunteering
• virtual social networking
• a recreational or personal interest (e.g. sport, reading)
• educational/academic (e.g. school)
• cultural (e.g. language group, festival)
• the local community
• a community of interest.
Students focus their study through devising a question or hypothesis about the use of language in the chosen context. They select appropriate language resources to analyse and use as evidence in their study. Students use at least two different language resources. These resources should be selected and evaluated for the ways in which they develop the student's understanding of the use of language in the selected context.

The study must include:
• an introduction, describing the context, question, or hypothesis and the selected language resources
• an analysis of the language in the selected resources and the extent to which that supports or answers the question or hypothesis
• evidence from the selected resources that supports the analysis
• a conclusion about the use of language in the chosen context.
