The reflection statement as an argument about your own work, and presenting the Major Work.
These are the statements the English Extension 2 syllabus makes about Reflection and Presentation. Dux records each one against the questions you answer, so you can see which of them you have actually been tested on and which have never been asked.
An argument about the work's intention, process and realisation, not a description of what was written.
Preparing the work for a reader: layout, formatting and the submission requirements.
Stating what the work set out to do, in terms specific enough to be evaluated.
Describing the decisions that changed the work, and why they changed it.
Judging honestly how far the finished work meets the intention, including what remains unresolved.
Showing how specific texts and writers shaped the work, with evidence rather than name-dropping.
English Extension 2 - Assessment Shape (no timed examination) is 50 marks in 120 minutes. Questions on Reflection and Presentation are not one shape repeated: the command word decides what the marker is looking for, and the mark value decides how much of it. These are the ones English Extension 2 uses.
Dux writes practice for this module in exactly these shapes, so the drill is the same task the paper sets — not a general knowledge quiz with the module name on it.
Reflection and Presentation is module 4 of 4 in English Extension 2. Students routinely lose marks because a question spans two modules, so the neighbouring modules are worth reading next to this one.
Dux diagnoses English Extension 2 dot point by dot point, then writes questions in the shape this course marks. Written answers come back marked against the bands.
