HSC Studies of Religion Question Thread
henrychapman:
What is the honest likelihood that you guys think the depth study essays will be on significant person? My school (both teachers and students) seem adamant that it will be and thus have prepared accordingly. It was in both our schools trial and the Catholic trial, so there are a few predictions floating around. I’d be keen to hear your guys thoughts

Hello, i was get confused when i'm trying to answer the essay when they start the question out with a huge quote. I was wondering even when in the question they don't ask to reference the quote, do you? And how? The question is below.
Question 4 — Islam (20 marks)
O mankind, indeed We have created you from male and female and made you peoples and tribes that you may know one another. Indeed, the most noble of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you. Indeed, Allah is Knowing and Acquainted.
*noblest having the highest moral character Qur’an 49:13
How do the ethical teachings of Islam guide adherents to live lives that are noble in the sight of Allah? In your response, refer to ONE of the following:
• Bioethics
• Environmental ethics
• Sexual ethics.

Hey there,
In this response, you could talk about the rise of ecumenism and how that encourages various Christian denominations to become united so they could help Aboriginal reconciliation. You could also talk about the significance of the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Ecumenical Commission (NATSIEC) and their aim to talk about the effects of the Stolen Generation and repair the relationship between Christianity and Aboriginal spirituality.
Hope this gave you a bit of direction!

I would aim to include the quote several times in your essay, but this doesn't necessarily mean stating the entire quote at the end of every paragraph. For instance, I would deconstruct the quote, pick out the important sections, and refer to these to strengthen or justify a point you are making in your essay. (e.g. "most righteous", "that you may know one another" etc) You can, though, include the entire quote in the introduction, but I would suggest, especially for a long one like this, you don't use the entire thing because you're wasting valuable time to be actually writing out your essay.
Hope this helps :)
