Common Module- Texts and Human Experiences Pre-Unit Quiz. Prescribed Text- ‘Cold Enough for Snow’ by Jessica AuVersión en línea This resource is designed to gain an idea of your understanding of key concepts that will be explored throughout the next 8 weeks. Your responses will help to guide lessons i.e., if we need to spend more time exploring a particular concept. The following 8 questions include a combination of multiple choice and short answer questions and target foundational understanding, higher-ordering thinking skills and your own personal reflections. por Eliza Grose 1 The Common Module rubric looks at the study of anomalies, paradoxes and inconsistencies. Which of the following statements best describes a ‘paradox’ in the context of human behaviour? a Predictable behaviour that conforms to social norms. b A situation or action that combines contradictory features or qualities. c An indifferent emotional response to an important life event. d A shared cultural tradition passed down through generations. 2 In the short film The Important Places, the narrator uses archival footage of his father to further explore and understand his own identity. This is an example of: a An anomaly in human motivation. b The tension between individual agency and conformity. c Storytelling as a vessel to understanding individual and collective experiences d A representation of an individual experience that ignores connections to collective history. 3 Jessica Au’s “minimalist” writing style often employs emotional restraint. If an author describes a significant loss with detached detail, they are representing: a A lack of human connection. b An inconsistency between the significance of the event and the emotional response. c An individual experience of grief. d A rationalist approach to humanism. 4 Which statement best reflects how a non-linear narrative structure (used in our prescribed text- Cold Enough for Snow) influences a reader’s perceptions of memory? a It makes the story more challenging to follow. b It focuses the reader’s attention only on the present moment c It is a structural weakness that prevents deep human connection. d It represents the "unpredictability and randomness" of how human thoughts and memories actually function. 5 With reference to your own life experiences, describe the difference between an individual experience and a collective experience. Consider how one event such as a family dinner could represent both. Written answer 6 Jessica Au suggests that we can never truly know another’s ‘inner world’. To what extent do you agree with this statement? Consider your relationships and interactions with family, friends and acquaintances. Written answer 7 Consider the prompt “meaningful connections define the quality of human experience”. Reflect on one connection you value (whether that be to a family member or a friend) and what this brings to your life experience. Written answer 8 Reflect on a moment where your own behaviour (or that of a family or friend) was "inconsistent" with your (or their) usual personality and values. What does this reveal about the complexity of individual human experiences and the differing contexts we encounter every day? Written answer Feedback 1 The rubric explicitly directs students to examine the "paradoxes" of human behaviour, referring to those moments where motivation and actions seem contradictory 2 This short film focuses on the idea of images and archival footage acting as a "vessel" through memory to these moments in time, helping us understand ourselves as products of both individual and shared history 3 The rubric requires students to identify "inconsistencies" in human behaviour. Au’s use of emotional restraint often highlights the gap between an experience and how it is outwardly expressed or internally processed 4 Au's style reflects how "thoughts often wander from one topic to another in a seemingly random way," reinforcing that human experience is often "truncated" and "isolated like a series of snapshots" 5 An individual experience is a unique, personal encounter while a collective experience is shared by a group of people. A family dinner is individual because each person has their own inner thoughts and tastes, but collective as it represents shared tradition and facilitates social bonding.
