These work samples form part of the assessment map for Interpersonal Development. Other parts of the Interpersonal Development assessment map can be accessed by using the menu on the right.
The Interpersonal Development Level 3 standards describe what students should know and be able to do at this level.
The assessment task which generated these work samples was designed to give students the opportunity to demonstrate achievement of selected elements of the standard. The work samples illustrate progress towards, but do not fully demonstrate achievement of, the selected elements of the standard.
In a music lesson, students focused on working cooperatively with a partner, who was not their normal choice. This activity focused on development of behaviours that promote positive harmonious social relationships. The music lesson required students to work in pairs and create a short rhythmic pattern. In pairs, students interact with each other using body percussion following the same beat, for example, clapping hands together. The students then presented their improvisation to the class. Students completed a self-assessment reflecting on how they worked with their partner.
The elements of the Building social relationships standard addressed by the task are:
(Students) demonstrate respect for others and exhibit appropriate behaviour for maintaining friendships with other people.
(Students) support each other by sharing ideas … offering assistance, giving appropriate feedback and acknowledging individual differences.
This work sample, and the related 2.5 Interpersonal Development progression point examples, illustrate the kinds of responses that students produce as they progress towards the Level 3 standard.
