• a short story;
• a poem;
• a piece of art;
• a song (this is your song!)
(up to 300 words or the equivalent of 1-2 pages long if it is a work of art)
2. Then write a personal reflection on the work that you have created, explaining the relationship between your created work, the novel and at least 2 or 3 principles of CatholicSocial Thought (900 words).
Readings for this assessment:
The book, “This is my Song” is fundamental reading for this assessment. In addition, the readings of the unit available to you via LEO and through any wider or further reading you wish to include. Please note that you are not required to read outside of the novel and reading list in the unit in order to achieve a high distinction in this assessment task.
General Instructions:
• The reflection should clearly explain to readers what the relationship is between your created work, the novel and at least 2 or 3 principles of Catholic Social Thought.
• Please see the marking rubric at the end of the Unit Outline
• The idea is to express your thoughts clearly and concisely and make your reflection as clear, accurate (in terms of your understanding of the principles) and coherent as you can.
• The reflection does require correct and full referencing.
• References and in-text citations do not count in the word limit.
• See referencing guidelines on the UNCC100 LEO page (You can find it under
Assessment How do I reference course materials for UNCC units?).
