Individual Oral 

Practice assignments

I would like to practise (this week):

Applying literary devices to one or both texts

Applying the Global Issue to both texts

Practise parts of the Individual Oral

Listen to an IO and mark it

All of it

None of it

Practice 1. 

The goal of this lesson: Defining and Applying the Global issue.

You all have read A Doll's House. That means whenever you see another text (picture, article, film, etc.) you are able to connect that text to some part of the play.

The goal of your IO: Examine the ways in which the global issue (of your choice) is presented through the content and form of two (lit and non-lit) that you have studied.

This lesson 

• Define a global issue
• apply tools to a non-lit text in connection to the global issue 

1. Defining the Global Issue

You will see a non-literary text on the next slide. Look at it for some minutes and think how and where you can connect it to A Doll's House.

Find that passage in your book (or online text)

You will get two questions afterwards:

1 = which passage do you connect the photo to

2 = what is the connection between the photo and your passage

To which passage from ADH would you connect this photo to?

What is the connection between the photo and your passage of ADH?

Which Field of Inquiry (so that is not the global issue yet!) do you think is the correct one here?

1. Power, Politics, Justice
2. Culture, Identity, Community
3. Beliefs, Values, Education
4. Science, Technology, Environment

Take five minutes. Connect the photo to your passage.
Choose a Field of Inquiry. Define your Global Issue.
Google if you must. Yet, make sure it is yours.

2. Visual Literacy

Which visual elements in the photo in connection to the Global Issue can you analyse?
think of:

- Big 6

- line, direction, shape, geometry

- arrangement, framing, juxtaposition of images, composition.

- foreground, background emphasis, dominant reading

- framing, angle, lighting, scale

Share your analysis (keywords)

Visual literacy points of analysis on

'Children Playing' by Henri Cartier-Bresson 1963

• Big 6 (context, audience/purpose, content/theme, tone/mood, stylistic devices: symbols, juxtaposition, structure)
• Dominant Reading
• Vantage Point 
• Contrast
• Framing

And the EFFECT

Practice 2.

You are going to listen to an individual oral and apply the marking criteria.

Literary Extract - 

'Mrs Faust' - C.A. Duffy

First things first -

I married Faust.

We met as students,

shacked up, split up,

made up, hitched up,

got a mortgage on a house,

flourished academically,

BA. MA. Ph.D. No kids.

Two toweled bathrobes. Hers. His.

We worked. We saved.

We moved again.

Fast cars. A boat with sails.

second home in Wales.

The latest toys – computers,

mobile phones. Prospered.

Moved again. Faust’s face

was clever, greedy, slightly mad.

I was as bad.

Practice 2.

IO Sample Carol Ann Duffy / Barbara Kruger

You will be asked:

1. What is the Global Issue

2. Share your given result

3. What have you learnt

Criterion A: Knowledge, understanding and interpretation (10 marks) To what extent does the student know both the extracts and the work/text? To what extent is the knowledge and understanding connected to the chosen global issue? How effective is the evidence used to support the ideas presented in the individual oral? Fenne, Rocco, Anne, Tristan, Ischa, Bas, Jolie, Anna.	Criterion B: Analysis and evaluation (10 marks) How relevant and insightful is the analysis and evaluation? How well does the student understand the author's choices in relation to the chosen global issue? Ties, Kick, Roderik, Nathan, Wes, Friso, Maud
Criterion C: Focus and organization (10 marks) How clear and sustained is the focus of the oral? To what extent is the oral a balanced discussion of both the literary work and the non-fiction text? How well-developed are the ideas in the oral? Rohan, Tom, Lucas, Elize, Imani, Noor, Kika.	Criterion D: Language (10 marks) How accurate is the language used? How sophisticated is the vocabulary and syntax? To what extent are elements of style used, and how effectively, to enhance the oral? Rosalie, Nora, Amber, Jens, Levi, Brent, Robin, Jay, Faber

What was the Global Issue?

Write down the mark you would give:
do it as follows: 'Criterion A 7/10' or 'Criterion B 8/10'

What do you take with you after having listened to this sample IO in preparing for yours?

In Classroom you will find the Presentation with the Planning under
