Literacy is developed through the specific study of the English language to understand how it works in different social contexts and critically assess bias. Students apply literacy skills when interpreting and creating spoken, print, visual and multimodal texts for various purposes. Numeracy can be addressed when interpreting, analyzing and creating texts involving quantitative data like percentages, statistics, numbers and measurements. Students identify, analyze and synthesize numerical information to discuss the credibility of sources. Visual texts may present numeracy demands, and interpreting and creating graphic organizers requires examining relationships and sorting measurable information into categories.

Question 2b: Language
The document provides guidance on developing the ability to interpret texts by looking at an author's language choices and their effect on the reader. It discusses identifying different language techniques in texts, exploring how writers use techniques in their writing, and how readers are affected. Key language techniques covered are identifying an author's bias or feelings about a subject, and rhetorical devices writers use to make their point more persuasive, such as rhetorical questions, lists, contrasts, repetition and emotive language.
Intent, attitude, and bias
The document discusses intent, attitude, and bias in writing. It provides questions to help determine an author's intent in writing a piece, such as what they hoped to accomplish or their tone. It also provides questions to uncover an author's attitude, such as whether they view the topic as serious or unimportant. Finally, it discusses bias, noting that biased writing may present opinions as facts or distort facts. The passage aims to help readers analyze texts to understand an author's perspective.

Ashley Jorgensen, Price Laboratory School, UNI
This presentation will focus on developing a curriculum built around inquiry-based units of instruction in a secondary language arts classroom. Audiences will have the chance to see evidence of how the use of essential questions can lead students into a process of inquiry, giving them the skills they need to think critically, question the world around them, and broaden and deepen their perspectives by connecting with others. Audiences will embark on a journey that takes them through a course entitled, ‘The American Teenager,’ and see the activities, assessments, and instructional strategies that transformed this course from a traditional study of American Literature to a course that is relevant, engaging, and challenging for teenagers in the 21st century. Through essential questions like ‘How do societal expectations impact our identity?’, ‘What are the costs and benefits of conformity?’ and ‘Is the American Dream a reality for all?’, this course blends classic and contemporary, and combines writers like Sherman Alexie with The Breakfast Club, Henry David Thoreau with text messaging, and Catcher in the Rye with Jay-Z. Audiences will gain important techniques for creating a classroom built around student-led discussions, including Socratic Seminars and blogging, as well as see examples of competency based assessments fully aligned with the Iowa Core Curriculum and National Common Core Standards.

Bloom’S Taxonomy Analysis
Bloom's Taxonomy Analysis separates concepts into their component parts to understand their organizational structure. It distinguishes between facts and inferences. Some useful verbs for analysis include analyze, distinguish, examine, compare, contrast, investigate, categorize, and identify. Sample questions ask how events may have occurred differently, how things are similar or different, what other outcomes may have been possible, and what problems exist. Potential analysis activities include designing questionnaires, making flow charts, constructing graphs, and writing reports.

Reading 2 – writing links and encouraging wider reading
This document discusses different types of comprehension questions assessed at level 6: literal, deductive, inferential, and those relating to authorial intent. For literal questions, students directly quote the text to answer what is explicitly stated. Deductive questions require students to make inferences directly supported by the text. Inferential questions involve drawing conclusions from hints and clues in the text combined with outside knowledge. Questions of authorial intent examine the writer's purpose and techniques. The document provides examples to clarify these question types and help students practice the appropriate response for each.

A 21 st Century Skills-based Pedagogical Framework in ELL Dr. Jacqueline Inti...
This document presents a pedagogical framework for integrating 21st century skills into English language learning. It is based on a study conducted in 2017 that examined the effects of incorporating 21st century skills on students' English proficiency. The framework consists of two overlapping Venn diagrams - the top diagram shows the interconnectedness of 21st century skills, and the bottom diagram represents instructional design, teaching strategies, and assessment. The goal is to develop students' communicative competence while also equipping them with 21st century knowledge and skills. The framework is grounded in constructivist and connected learning theories and draws from communicative language teaching approaches.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

English
- 1. English LITERACY AND NUMERACY REQUIREMENTS ACARA (N.D.F)
- 2. Literacy Requirements Literacy is developed through the specific study of the English language in all its forms, enabling students to understand how the English language works in different social contexts and critically assess writers’ opinions, bias and intent, and assisting them to make increasingly sophisticated language choices in their own texts. They apply their literacy capability in English when they interpret and create spoken, print, visual and multimodal texts for a range of purposes.
- 3. Numeracy Requirements Numeracy can be addressed in learning contexts appropriate to English across Years F‒10. Students use numeracy skills when interpreting, analysing and creating texts involving quantitative and spatial information such as percentages and statistics, numbers, measurements and directions. When responding to or creating texts that present issues or arguments based on data, students identify, analyse and synthesise numerical information using that understanding to discuss the credibility of sources.
- 4. Numeracy Requirements (cont.) Visual texts may present a range of numeracy demands Interpreting and creating graphic organisers requires students to examine relationships between various components of a situation and to sort information into categories including characteristics that can be measured or counted. Understanding the mathematical ideas behind visual organisers such as Venn diagrams or flowcharts helps students to use them more effectively.
