SWK1103 Viva Cultural Product Assessment 2 – Australia.

Identity is formed from our own distinct characteristics, experiences and perspectives/beliefs and also from our membership to particular groups and communities. The following are the characteristics that can connect us to a community or provide a point of difference: religion, age, education, gender, social class, sexuality, occupation, race, region and neigh bourhood. Your presentation should touch on those characteristics which are relevant to you and to the product you choose.

It will also be important to include any cultural practices that might relate to the product you choose and the beliefs and values that might connect to the product.

Students studying this unit will develop a 10 minute presentation using an audio tool of choice and submit through Blackboard. Students can also volunteer to present to the class in person or via Collaborate. A
maximum of three (3) PowerPoint slides (or equivalent) can be used to support the presentation, in addition to the reference list.
