SACE Year 10 Exploring Identities & Futures (EIF)

Year: 10 – Compulsory
Length: Semester (10 SACE Credits)
Contact Person: Jacob Hayes

Content: This subject is compulsory for all Year 10 students in Semester 1.

Overview: Exploring Identities and Futures (EIF) is an exciting flagship subject that responds to the rapidly changing local and global context that our students are living and learning in. EIF is a Stage 1 subject that supports students to learn more about themselves and explore their aspirations and future.

EIF prepares students for a different way of thinking and learning in Senior School. As students being their SACE journey, they build the knowledge, skills and capabilities required to be thriving learners and are empowered to take ownership of where their pathway leads, exploring interests, work, travel and/or further learning.

Pedagogical Approach:

  • Agency: developing students’ capacity to initiate and progress their learning, making
  • decisions in partnership with their teachers.
  • Natural Evidence of Learning (NEoL) – valuing authentic and varied evidence that captures students’ learning and capability development. Supporting students collect, build on and present evidence in ways that suit their strengths and their learning.
  • Self-regulation (self-efficacy) – building awareness of how self-efficacy and motivation can have positive impacts on learning outcomes.
  • Feedback – continuous and iterative feedback is provided on the ways students are learning and thinking, as well as on the tasks themselves.

Assessment:

  • Assessment Type 1: Exploring me and who I want to be.
  • Assessment Type 2: Taking action and showcasing my capabilities.
