'Encountering Conflict'

[darkphoenix]

Does anyone else doing this have the SAC for "context" coming up as well?

How exactly do we prepare for it? Our teacher is crap and doesnt really tell us much.

And context is probably my worst part of english.

Just out of curiosity, have you done your first SAC already? (language analysis)

my first assessment was a speech i dont think it matters in which order the school does it as long as they asses the students on the material.

Nope this context one coming up is our first.

I have my reading and responding SAC tomorrow (for "On the Waterfront" if you're interested)

it's a good idea to read a wide range of texts to understand your context better and use them as solid examples in your essays, perhaps even reading a summary of the core ideas on sparknotes or something of those texts to even better enhance your knowledge. i wrote up a list of supplementary texts to use for Encountering Conflict, but i can't seem to find it on the forums, i can post again - im sure i saved it somewhere on my computer - if anyone is interested?

Just ensure that you have a wide range of examples you can draw on in your piece, and have a few points to relate back to the text. Have a look at a few topics and figure out some examples that can be used for support in your piece.

Have you been given a specific style that you must use? (persuasive, creative, expository)?
