Geoff Harris – Moderation findings for Achievement Standard 91913 – Produce a significant resolved artwork appropriate to established art making conventions
This presentation involves a review of the nature of evidence for Achievement Standard 91913. Key aspects of the presentation include:
• Expectations for ‘significant’ artworks in relation to the credit weighting and curriculum level of the standard – and how this differs from the previous ‘finished work’ standard.
• Identifying a specific set of unique design and production conventions appropriate to the chosen visual arts context.
• The role of supporting evidence is relation to sustained research, development, decision making, and intentionality of final outcomes.
• Best practice for documenting work for external moderation.
The topics will be supported with evidence from 2024 moderation submissions.
