Further Assessment: Visual and Media Arts for Early Childhood

Revisions within the Original Assessment Task(s):

1. Please read the feedback on your assessment tasks thoroughly and use this opportunity to make adjustments in response to the feedback provided.

2. Once you have made the revisions and adjustments, highlight those revisions so that a comparison can be made with your originally submitted work. You are encouraged to spend time reflecting on the feedback to ensure you demonstrate your best ability in achieving the ULOs (Unit Learning Outcomes) in this submission.

500-700 Word Reflective Essay:

1. After making your revisions, please write a 500-700 word reflective essay in which you evaluate the choices you made during the revision process. Be sure to reference the unit resources you used in making these revisions, explaining why you made these specific changes. If you have chosen not to make revisions in certain areas, discuss your rationale for not incorporating that specific feedback into your further assessment task.

2. In your reflection, take some time to discuss the importance of reflecting on and incorporating feedback into your work as a future educator. Consider the following questions:

   • Why is reflecting on feedback important?
   • Why is it important to use your professional judgment when deciding how to incorporate feedback into your practice?

Instructions:

• First, use the rationale (the second portfolio) as your reference and rewrite all sections that were impacted by Gen AI.
• Note: You must refrain from using any writing program that changes words, suggests rephrasing, or interferes with your writing in any way.
• You can use the Curtin Grammarly version to proofread and check spelling, but avoid any rephrasing or editing suggestions.
• After rewriting A2 Part 2 (Rationale), write a 500-700 word reflection on your response to the feedback. Discuss why Gen AI is not appropriate in teacher education settings and what you have learned from this experience.
• When you have completed the material, save it as a single document and a PDF. Upload it to the Turnitin link. Any Gen AI score above 0% will automatically result in a fail for this task and the unit.

Explanation:

This assessment originally comprised two sections: Portfolio One and Portfolio Two. While Portfolio One was accepted, Portfolio Two was rejected due to the detection of AI-generated content. As a result, you are required to complete further assessment, which involves revising Portfolio Two (Rationale) to ensure originality and quality.

Use Portfolio One as a reference to help understand the context and maintain consistency between the two portfolios. However, your primary focus should be on revising Portfolio Two.

After completing the revision of Portfolio Two, write a 500-700 word reflection and address all the necessary information as outlined.

IMPORTANT: You have received clarification that the university no longer allows any Gen AI % leeway. Any score above 0% will trigger an academic integrity investigation, resulting in an immediate fail for this task and the unit. Take extra care to avoid using writing programs—write the material yourself in Word and do not accept any correction or rephrasing advice from Grammarly, Microsoft CoPilot, ChatGPT, or similar programs.
