Communicating
Socialising
Initiate and participate in sustained interactions with others orally and in writing to discuss young people’s experiences and interest in contemporary culture and social issues; for example, अंधविश्वास; स्वच्छता; समाज में महिलाओं का पद; संयुक्त और एकल परिवार; क्या बालिग होने पर बच्चों को अपने माता पिता का घर छोड़ देना चाहिए?
Express feelings and justify opinions; for example, तुम आगे चलकर कौन कौन से विषय पढ़ोगे?;
क्या तुम्हें नई भाषा सीखना कठिन लगता है?;
मेरे खयाल में हम सबको प्रकृति की देख भाल करनी चाहिए;
मैं कानून कि पढ़ाई के बाद वकील बनना चाहता हूँ;
मुझे लगता है...;
मैं आपसे सहमत नहीं हूँ
Contribute ideas, opinions and suggestions in individual and collaborative tasks, exchanging resources and information, solving problems and managing diverse views, such as organising real or simulated forums, social media or daily news segments, protests or rallies to raise awareness of contemporary culture and social issues
Informing
Analyse, synthesise and evaluate ideas and information from a range of perspectives on texts related to aspects of their personal, natural and social worlds, for instance, regional news headlines, local community announcements and advertisements, and identify how context and culture affect how information is presented
Convey information, comments, perspectives and experiences on texts related to aspects of their personal, natural and social worlds, using language and different modes of presentation to suit different audiences or to achieve different purposes
Creating
Analyse how aesthetic, humorous or emotional effects are created in ways that reflect cultural influence in imaginative texts, such as poems, short stories, cartoons and films, songs, dance, street art and performance
Create and present a range of imaginative texts on themes of personal or social relevance to express ideas or reflect cultural values, social issues or experience
Translating
Consider the nature of translating and interpreting, explaining how cultural perspectives and concepts have been represented when transferring meaning from one language to another; for example, how popular Hindi expressions and idioms (such as जिसकी लाठी उसकी भैंस; नाच ना आवे आँगन टेढ़ा; हाथ कंगन को आरसी क्या) can create confusion when translated literally
Reflecting
Reflect on the experience of learning and using Hindi, considering how intercultural communication involves taking responsibility for contributing to mutual understanding by modifying language and behaviours in relation to cultural perspectives
Explore and express their own cultural identity and ability to act as a cultural mediator between Hindi speakers and other Australians
