At the beginning of each week, the subject coordinator will identify a point/argument in one of the readings and put this on the forum as a quotation - the reading will not be disclosed so you will need to do all of the readings in order to complete this exercise. Your task is to provide a weekly post that responds to the quote/points selected by the convener. Give each of your posts post the heading "Weekly Post" along with your name and the date of submission. You can either engage directly with the quote, or discuss it with another student on the forum by commenting on their post. Your assessment task post must be as close to 250 words as possible - check your word count before posting. As well as your official assessment task post, you are encouraged to comment and contribute to the discussion informally so we can generate a good lively debate! Your assessment task post must be written in academic prose (e.g. correct grammar, punctuation, expression will be expected) and must show scholarly engagement with the concept/s and/or the student with whom you choose to discuss. Each weekly response will be marked out of 10. Marks will be recorded by the convener each week and final marks for the completed exercise allocated to students at the end of semester.. If students have not posted by the due time and day each week, they will be given a grade of zero for that week.
Note: It is imperative that the response be provided by Sunday 5pm of each week.
Details of the online activities are posted under each weekly topic on iLearn. You will be able to see the answers provided by other students only after you have posted your response (note: there may be a 15 minute ‘turnover’ time).
Due: 22 September
Weighting: 25%
The second assessment requires students to write a short essay from one of the three topics below. You are expected to draw material from modules 1, 2 and 3 as you write the essay and also, to demonstrate wider research..
1. Choose one of the following broad topics:
Make sure you choose a subject which is manageable within the constraints set out below.
2. In reflecting on your chosen subject, consider the ways in which power has been exercised and by whom. What obstacles were overcome, and how? What tactics were used, and how successful were they? What important lessons can we learn from your chosen subject?
3. Full academic referencing is required (in-text referencing is preferred) and you should include a bibliography. An abstract is not required for this essay.
4. Give your essay a title denoting the chosen topic. At this level, it is expected that academic prose comprises correct grammar, referencing, sentence structure, punctuation, page numbers, flow of argument/points etc and general high level essay writing skills
Due: 10 November
Weighting: 35%
The final assessment requires students to conduct extensive independent research and present their findings in essay form. Students will identify a government policy related to Indigenous education which has been formulated and implemented by either the Commonwealth government, or by a state or territory government in Australia.
Note: You should have chosen your policy by week 8 and begun to gather appropriate research in preparation for this task.
In your essay, you should do the following things:
1. Describe and give some backdrop for the political context in which the policy was formulated.
2. You could consider the following questions, as appropriate:
3. Consider how could the policy be evaluated, in your view? Has it been a success or a failure? Give reasons/evidence for your answer.
