Structuring+Your+Response

//Please open / save the orginial file and it is clearer and more informative than the content of this page.// **__Structuring your response__** **Composers use images to shape our understanding of our society, our world and ourselves ** There are multiple ways of structuring your response because it is your response . As long as you hit all of the points in the marking criteria, your structure is acceptable. Some structures will display your sophisticated and complex arguments off to full advantage, but these tend to be harder to write. Other structures are easier but do not display the same level of sophistication and complexity. It is up to you to decide what format a) best suits the way information and ideas are organised in your head and b) will best display your strengths. Remember, whatever scaffold you choose, it must include a technique- textual example- link to meaning formula!!! Here are scaffolds for your perusal, in ascending order of difficulty (obviously the Introduction and Conclusion will be the same for each, so they are not included with these scaffolds) **Para 1: Prescribed text ** ~ Lenses (although call it a technique in your essay/ speech, not a lens) + question ~ Example + Meaning ~ Link to question Para 2: Related text 1 ~ Lenses (although call it a technique in your essay/ speech, not a lens) + question ~ Example + Meaning ~ Link to question Para 3: Related text 2 ~ Lenses (although call it a technique in your essay/ speech, not a lens) + question ~ Example + Meaning <span style="font-family: 'Helvetica','sans-serif';">~ Link to question //<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica','sans-serif';">I expect everybody to try and move beyond this first scaffold.
