Community Connections Stage 2
Assessment Type 3: Community Application Activity

External assessment Weighting: 30%

For both a 10-credit and a 20-credit subject, students undertake a community application activity, and provide evidence of:

  • connections between their community application activity and subject-specific knowledge and skills, and their chosen capability
  • planning and organisation to undertake the community application activity
  • connecting the benefits and future possibilities of the community application activity to the community and themselves.

For a 10-credit subject, the community application activity should be a maximum of 750 words if written or a maximum of 5 minutes if oral, or the equivalent in multimodal form.

For a 20-credit subject, the community application activity should be a maximum of 1500 words if written or a maximum of 9 minutes if oral, or the equivalent in multimodal form. As a guide, the student undertakes the community application activity in approximately 20 hours.

For this assessment type, students provide evidence of their learning, primarily in relation to the following assessment design criteria:

  • Application and connection (AC1, AC2, and AC3)

Student work should be their own. All externally assessed investigations must be verified by a teacher. See Supervision and verification of student work.
