Learner prompts

Goal: Create an independent perspective for an imagined public audience using a new open brief, and explain selected craft choices before feedback.

Prepare: Keep fresh E and key apart until this sitting. Provide the clean source/task and preferred exact-access mode; no assumed prior draft, output or actual committee.

  1. Make a start · 5 min. Invite: “Choose the public audience and direction for your new argument.” Reveal only the held source/task now. Record known earlier access/support without penalty and offer private composition or an optional suitable enactment. No model contention, title or ending is supplied.
  2. Read/encounter · 8 min. Read the complete new source and task with exact accessible support. Clarify instructions neutrally without rehearsing a possible answer. Learners may support, oppose, qualify or offer another coherent position, using what the source actually states and labelled proposed alternatives.
  3. Model or independent fresh start · 12 min. The learner begins an own contention, source connection and reason. There is no supplied earlier trial or imaginary previous draft. One useful component now is valid partial evidence; a later sitting can develop the argument. The teacher does not demonstrate a source-specific response or open the separate key.
  4. Develop · 15 min. Compose an own persuasive response and short craft commentary in chosen mode. Flexible guides of 250–400 words plus80–150 commentary equivalent help planning only; no quota applies. A possible eventual 3–5-minute format remains optional. Actual delivery can be chosen, but composed/director work is not falsely credited as a delivered speech.
  5. Review or retain first · 6 min. Keep the first response before teaching feedback, including exact own wording/selections, source encounter and access/support. No audience success, entry, material trial or actual decision is printed. Learner can pass an enactment, preserve privacy or return later without losing the useful composition already made.
  6. Keep/next move · 4 min. After capture consult the independent descriptive key/rubric for one next move. A different supported position or creative structure is valid. Later revisions are feedback-informed and separate; no IA1, A–E, QCE, full-unit or year-completion judgment is awarded.

Actual evidence: New first composition/commentary evidence; performance only actual, no automatic policy/design/making outcome or formal senior result.

Selected unit-objective opportunities: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11; conditional/partial as crosswalk explains.
