    Year 11 English Assessment Task

    Armin Greder’s ‘The Island’ is a picture book published August 2007, explores the negative aspects of belonging through alienation an outsider’s perspective of not belonging. The text uncovers an undesirable experience particularly the migrant experience. It follows a strange man entering a foreign island where he is unwelcomed and quickly judged based on his appearance. The cover of the book shows an intimating barrier around the island, which looks, dark and uninviting. This wall is a metaphor of the attitudes given off by the islanders towards the man, which are also unapproachable and unpleasant. This effect brings about the feelings of alienation experienced by the man, reflecting the negative aspects of belonging to a group or community. Throughout the text the islanders are drawn additionally threatening, as they are large, dark and armed. This is contrasted with the man’s petite frame and lack of clothing leaving him vulnerable and abnormal. Through this use of size and colour a direct link can be made between the man’s inability to belong and his distinctive appearance. This portrays to the audience how much society impacts a person’s experience of belonging or not belonging. Within the text, the islander’s attitude towards the man is prejudice and hostile. As the islanders say “I’m sure he wouldn’t like it here, so far away from his own kind”, negative connotations are revealed in the words “own kind”. This immediately tells the audience that this man is unlike the rest of society, displaying the effect of appearance on a person’s ability to assimilate into a new surrounding.…

    Analysis: Should Kids Get A Trophy For Showing Off

    Growing up, children go to school and the majority participate in various sports and activities. It gives students something to look forward to, occupy their time, and become more well rounded individuals. The common theme of being involved in these areas is of course doing it to have fun.

    CMST 3060 Public Speaking Review

    Perhaps James Burgh said it best, “...it is still of important advantage for all that part of youth, whose station places them within the reach a polite education, to be qualified to acquitting themselves with reputation, when called to speak in public. In parliament, at the bar, in the pulpit, at meetings of merchants, in committee.” (Gray) and, “...a competent address and readiness, not only in finding matter but in expressing and urging it effectively is what, I doubt not, many gentleman would willingly acquire at the expense of half his other improvements.”(Gray) Public speaking is an essential tool that all students, more specifically communication studies majors, must learn and become familiar with. Learning how to be an influential public speaker…

People are far more scared of public speaking than death and even spiders. It is a primal fear of being ostracized and cast out, but it is something that should not be fear so highly. With practice and a few good points public speaking can be an experience that the speaker and the audience can connect and share a story that teaches each person something new.…

    Oral Communication

    The results show that the teachers and a majority of the pupils think that oral communication is an important part of the teaching of English, mainly because of the fact that being able to express yourself orally in English today is of great importance and because through this the pupils get to use the English language a lot themselves. Factors that contribute to verbally active pupils in the English classroom are a safe classroom atmosphere, pupils’ self-esteem, small groups, meaningful assignments, enthusiastic and encouraging teachers and motivated pupils. The results also show that the teachers believe that the assessment of pupils’ oral ability is hard because it is not as concrete as other skills that they assess in the English foreign language classroom. Other reasons why the assessment is hard are the problem of getting shy or unmotivated pupils to participate orally and lack of time.…
