Differentiated QCIA exam - Social and Community Studies - Gender and Identity Unit

A differentiated exam which was made for QCIA learners who have learning difficulties which prevent them for doing the exam sat by the remainder of the class. The Queensland Certificate of Individual Achievement (QCIA) recognises the achievements of students who are on individualised learning programs.

The exam has been tailored to the needs of the learners. It provides a word list of terms encountered in the unit at the front which students can refer to for spelling and prompts when writing their answers.

It begins with questions where they are provided the definition and must provide the correct word to label it and add an example. There is one question where they must provide their own definition and example for the term. There are a lot more visual questions for students (e.g. a few where they must respond to advertisements and the stereotypes about men/women within them). There is a list of scenarios which students must read and circle those which count as gender discrimination. There is also a question about sexual harrassmen where studetns are provided a visual infographic which they can use to explain why sexual harassment is bad. Following this they must write a short response to the question: What should someone do if they are being sexually harassed in their workplace? This requires them to make a recommendation and give some reasons why they think what they think.

Attached to the exam is a QCIA cover sheet recommending adjustments to be made and individual learning goals to be assessed for students on a modified program (called QCIA students in QLD)
