Religious Education Assessments
All students in Years 7-10 and most senior classes have now received their assessment notification for their first Religious Education Assessment Task. These can be found on Compass under Learning Tasks for your daughter.
While the tasks vary in style and submission dates, I would like to draw to your attention that all our tasks are accompanied by a video explaining the task that can be viewed by students and parents as many times as they like. This is usually a zoom recording with a password which is clearly shown in the notification. This was something that we started during remote learning that we feel is helpful for students, and so have continued.
Also attached to each notification is a marking criteria so that students can see exactly what they need to do to achieve success in the task. Additionally all junior tasks, except in-class tests, will have attached a scaffold for the task so that students can see what is expected and to help start them in their preparation. For any tasks that are research or digital tasks, students are given two lessons of class time to prepare the task and ask questions of their teacher. This also allows our staff to “check-in” on student progress on the task.
While students may be active Church attendees and very committed to their faith, success in Religious Education as an academic subject, depends on continued commitment to their classwork and effort in their assessment tasks. Like other subjects, grades are awarded based on performance in these areas.
If you have any questions regarding your daughters Religious Education Assessment Tasks please do not hesitate to contact your daughters teacher, Mrs Nader, Assistant REC, or myself at the College.
