3.7 Complete independent research on a language or literature topic and present conclusions in writing

This achievement standard requires independent research of a language or literature topic, where the student is expected to propose research question(s), then present findings in written form, based on selected information from a range of referenced resources.

Your research topic must be related to your study of English language or literature texts and be of sufficient content and breadth to provide opportunity for relevant conclusions to be drawn and presented.

Your research findings could be re-worked for assessment against other English achievement standards such as 3.6 Oral presentation, or used as background study in preparation for externally assessed achievement standards 3.2 Written text(s), 3.3 Shakespeare, and 3.4 Visual or oral text.
