Context: Exploring Issues of Identity and Belonging
The Catcher in the Rye / Witness / Sometimes Gladness / Bombshells

There are costs to the individual in belonging to a group.

Society often creates unrealistic and unattainable expectations of individuals.

If we are unaware of whom we really are – we can never be truly content.

Without close and supportive relationships, we can often feel isolated.

To conform to the expectations of others may be very self-destructive for the individual.

Maintaining one’s own identity is more important than belonging to a group.

Cultural identity and belonging is paramount to one’s sense of self.

A strong sense of identity depends on belonging to community as well as to family.

The environment we belong to ultimately shapes who we are.

Belonging to a group gives one a sense of identity.

The pressures that stem from an individual's lifestyle make self reflection impossible.

Belonging involves conforming and a loss of identity.

Sacrifices are necessary in order for an individual to feel accepted in a community.

One needs to be one’s true self.

Our relationships with others define who we are.

Before acquiring a strong sense of self, hardships need to be experienced.

Belonging is always preferable to alienation.

Choosing not to belong may be detrimental, yet rewarding.

Families stifle who we are.

Belonging requires sacrifices that may lead to unhappiness.

Who we are often depends on where we are.

Stereotypes limit the growth of our identity.

The fulfillment of one's duties can lead to the loss of one's individuality.

Happiness is linked to a stable sense of self.

Our sense of who we are is directly influenced by the people in our lives.

Our personal security comes from the experiences that also shape our identity.

Families play a role in abolishing isolation.


new quote which i am stuggling and need some help with.. 

"The search to discover who we are is one of life's greatest challenges"

Visual, "girl sitting on suitcase with no surroundsing (no other objects of background, with body posture = legs spread, arms inbetween legs, straight but kinda slouched back)."

Is there any topics for Romulus?

i) To what extent does the text support the view that Romulus taught his son the benefits of living a 'decent life'?

ii) 'Romulus's life involved tragedy, sentimentality, and serenity.'
    Which of these is most influential?

hey, re the prompts for creating and presenting for: "Encountering COnflict" im guessing that it applies to the other two texts too: Omagh and the one from Hillman this year or something. Im after guide notes aside from NEAP for Omagh. Also, im looking for essay questions on: "Interpreter of Maladies"- a series of short stories by Jhumpa Lahiri
Thanks alot, the essay questions for Maestro were extremely useful

Maybe because you bumped an 11 month old thread.

Just scroll. The URL's still have vcenotes as opposed to vce.atarnotes.com, so replace it yourself and have a try
vce: english, methods, spesh, chemistry, physics, geography.
