I have a feeling that they're gonna choose a harder part of the rubric or a part that's overlooked by many. I think they might make it on belonging to, or exclusion, from the world of the text. Personally I have no idea what that means or how to interpret that :/ Identity could be possible
I don't really think this is done however that doesn't mean it couldn't be :blink2:
I guess belonging to the text is more about the language and values explored in the text, and how you as a reader feel connected to the story. That would be beast...

Identity IS in the rubric "students may consider aspects of belonging in terms of experiences and notions of identity".

I rekon it'll be barriers in attaining belonging and how identity comes into that.
Yeah I know identity's there. It's too predictable though.

I Think they have already done something on places, so its safe to say if wont be asked again. But this question on barriers sounds plausable

Honestly I have a strong feeling it will be on not belonging, choosing not to belong, social class, things like that

I really think it might very well be about 'belonging to communities or groups'
if you look at the HSC questions since 2009, the year they redid the area of study, then all the questions have been about belonging associated to another entity e.g. 2010 'interaction with others and the world' 2011 'influenced by connections to a place' 2012 'passage of time and interaction with world'.
Looking at the breakdown of the rubric, the main idea left that i can see is 'connections made with group and made with communities'. Which suck balls since neither of my creatives are mildly related to those concepts

lol last years 2011 one or so was easy sh-t lol. u could write anything about it using any of the images. This year, theyll probably give u quotes as stimulus for creative. There's always one way to find out. Go break into the boardofstudies office. XD

i dont get why everyone kicked up a huge storm about the notion of time. There is so many techniques you can draw on in relation to time, especially in Peter Skrzynecki anthology. Time is such an easy concept, i also reckon barriers would be really easy
though i do think that;
"ability to enrich a community or the world around them" would be a pain in the ass. lol

enriches the classmates to have racial acceptance, allowing them to connect to the broader world, enriching their perspective of the futility in racial divide as it is an obstruction to belong etc etc etc

as for peter skrzynecki LOL

Its either limit or enrich a community OR how the composer excludes the audience from the world of the text *le sigh*

heyy there. The question cannot just ask "Not belonging" which is quite biased. When it mentions " belonging" you should always mention the barriers to belonging as well. aye?

I can't see how Peter Skrzynecki would fit into the "ability to enrich a community..." I would be really screwed if that happens.

Isn't identity a module covered in the prelim? We did that in year 11 although it is in the Belonging rubric

I'm thinking could be about choices to belong or not belong, never been touched on before and it was the central theme for the Catholic paper...
