Research
Create a valid research question to focus your research
Find relevant information that helps strengthen your argument or presents a clear
alternative perspective
Fully reference a range of relevant sources that you have used in your research
Referencing
You should be using the APA format we did work on in Challenge 1
You must have a reference page that follows this format
(Author, date published- year, month & day, title/headline of article, organisation
name, URL) If there’s no author, the organisation name is fine.
In-text citations
Throughout your presentations, you must use in-text citations to show where you
are referring to the ideas you found in your research.
This is shorter than the sources you list at the end.
Ex.
According to the UN (UN, 2021) …
Economic factors play an important role in access to sports facilities and
equipment (Anderson, 2003)
We only need the author’s name and the year published for in-text citations
Analysis
You need to identify and explain 1 cause and 1 consequence of your chosen issue
You need to identify a global perspective on your chosen issue that shows how an
international organisation (for example, the UN or the International Olympics
Committee) thinks about your chosen issue
You need to identify a national perspective from any country in the world that shows
how they think about your chosen issue. This could be from the government or a
national organisation
Create a realistic solution to the problem (you can research how another country has
dealt with the issue) and explain how it will work and what makes it realistic. Your
solution should be for the country you choose in your national perspective
Evaluation
This will be an individual component for this assessment.
You must evaluate 2 sources you have used in your research, for both sources
give 2 reasons why you think the source is/isn’t reliable
Don’t just identify something about the source (Example, the source is old)
Explain why the thing you identify has made you judge it more/less reliable
(Example, the source is old, this means it’s less reliable because…)
Collaboration
Individual: You are making positive contributions to your group and are focused on
your research and helping others You should all be adding to your groups
research document!
Group: You work together to complete your project. No-one should only be in
charge of ‘designing the presentation’, that’s not an assessed skill! Communicate
any differences of opinion in a friendly way and assign tasks fairly. Help others!
Communication
Your presentation is visually appealing and free of language errors!
Every person must present some of the information in front of the class. You
should speak clearly with an appropriate speed and volume.
Reflection
This will be an individual component to the assessment.
In this reflection, you must state how your perspective has changed/strengthened
based on the research you have done for the project.
At the beginning I thought…
Now, after research, I think…because…
