• VCADAD022

  Use choreographic devices to select and organise movement ideas and create and practise dance sequences

  Elaborations

  • practising fundamental movements such as walking, running, marching, galloping, skipping, crawling, bending, stretching, twisting and turning, focusing on technical skills of body control, posture, strength, balance and coordination
  • devising a range of body shapes and travelling movements suggested by action words focusing on the dynamic qualities, for example, rising, jumping, stopping, falling, opening, closing and then use the devices of repetition and contrast to form dance sequences
  • using questions as part of the dance-making process, for example, asking how ideas are communicated in this dance, how they are varying speeds, levels, directions?
  • exploring movement possibilities and making choices about ways of communicating emotions or observations about the texture of an object, for example, eating something sticky
  • making decisions about how a short dance will begin and end, refining and evaluating options through feedback, practice and repetition

• VCECD012

  Explore the significance of ‘means versus ends’ by considering two ways to act when presented with a problem: one that privileges means and one ends

  Elaborations

  • investigating a choice such as posting an image of a friend and justifying why someone should or should not post the image, in terms of means and ends
  • responding to a range of ethical dilemmas and comparing responses that focus on means (where the most important consideration is the action itself, such as being honest regardless of the consequences) and responses that focus on ends (where the most important consideration is the likely outcome, such as making someone happy even if it means lying to them)
  • analysing the position 'the end justifies the means' and the tension between means and ends in different contexts, for example, experimentation on people or other animals, the collection and use of data, making consumer decisions, selecting/training teams in sport or making civic decisions such as removing homeless people from areas during an event

• VCKOU037

  Understand the symbolic nature and power of language in local and global contexts

  Elaborations

  • understanding the nature of language that reflects and may effect changes in peoples’ way of thinking and in aspects of society, finding examples from Korean, English and other known languages (for example, discouraging the use of language that implies social discrimination or replacing it with alternatives or newly created vocabulary
  • identifying the function and power of cultural expressions such as stories, symbols, icons and anthems, for example, 단군신화, 애국가, 아리랑, 태극기, the Dreamtime, Aboriginal and Australian flags
  • exploring and discussing how and why new products and practices from other cultures are adopted, typically with terminology in the language/s associated
  • collecting and discussing examples of language impacting on society and culture, drawing on other learning areas such as history, social studies and the arts

• VC2M9M04

  calculate and interpret absolute, relative and percentage errors in measurements

  Elaborations

  • investigating error as a percentage of the exact value; for example, comparing an estimation of the number of people expected to come to an event by subtracting the actual number that turned up to give an error, then converting this into a percentage error
  • using absolute value in a percentage error formula; considering when they would use the absolute value and when they would not, depending upon the context
  • calculating the percentage errors in expected budgets to actual expenditure
  • estimating the accuracy of measurements in practical contexts and giving suitable lower and upper bounds for measurement values
