Text Connections Research 4 Credits Due: 15 th September (Week 9) Pssst! After we have done this one, our internals are done! Hooray!

Student Instructions This assessment activity requires you to present (in written, oral, or visual form) your ideas about significant connections across at least four selected texts. You can read texts, collect information, and develop ideas for the assessment activity both in- and out-of-class time. You will be assessed on how you develop and support your ideas, and on the originality of your thinking, insights, or interpretation.

Assessment schedule AchievementMeritExcellence Explain significant connection(s) across texts, using supporting evidence. Convincingly explain significant connection(s) across texts, using supporting evidence. Perceptively explain significant connection(s) across texts, using supporting evidence.

What this means: Explain: Connection(s) may include links, commonalities, and/or relationships between: knowledge, experience, and ideas; purposes and audiences; language features or structures. Convincingly explain: attempts some reasoned and relevant explanations of the effect of the connection; shows some understanding of relevant text features or aspects, which develop connections; attempts to draw findings together or make thoughtful comments. Perceptively explain: presents a relevant and insightful study of the effect of the connection; shows an insightful understanding of text features or aspects which develop a connection; effectively draws findings together to make new understandings. Exemplars available on Moodle or paper form.

Bear in mind… We have already studied, in depth, 4 texts (War Poetry) You are welcome to choose three of those, plus another text, either from the booklet or another one you’d like. You must run it by me first. Choose your four texts. You must have read or viewed at least one independently.

Potential connections Here are some suggested significant connections: similar subject or theme, for example, World War I similar storyline, for example, star-crossed lovers similar characters, for example, innocent victim, villain, or hero similar time setting, for example, texts set in the future similar place setting, for example, texts set in New Zealand or the Pacific similar narrative perspective, for example, an innocent narrator same genre, for example, biography same field of interest, for example, online blogs.

Research notes Draw up a record sheet and, over the course of the year, record some of the ways in which the texts you read or view are connected. Examples of record sheet in your handouts provided.

Final task - report Identify a significant connection (or connections) across your selected four (or more) texts and plan and develop a presentation that explains the connection(s). In your presentation, identify and explain a significant connection or connections across all your texts, making clear points that develop understandings that show some insight or originality in thought or interpretation. Refer to specific, relevant details from each text that illustrate the connection across your texts.

Report structure See handout. Draft report on handout, then type up report.
