VM Literacy VCE Units 1 & 2 Practice Question 6c – Copyright principles and attribution

Q6c VM Literacy Copyright principles and attribution Unit 2 - Area Of Study 2

You are writing a 350–450 word response for your class blog to an online opinion post titled “Schools should ban students from using AI tools for assignments.” Your teacher expects you to use evidence and examples to support your viewpoint and to follow copyright rules and attribution conventions.

You plan to include the following materials in your post:

  • A screenshot of a graph from the public website of a university research centre. The graph shows changes in student study habits over time and includes the centre’s logo.
  • One paragraph (about 80 words) copied from a news website article summarising a recent survey about AI use by teenagers.
  • A Creative Commons image you found through an image search. The image shows a student studying at a laptop. The page says: “CC BY-NC 4.0” and lists the creator as “A. Nguyen”.
  • Two sentences from a classmate’s comment in your class discussion forum that you think are well-phrased.

You intend to publish your post publicly (anyone can view it), and you will include a reference list at the end.

Unit 2 Overview

In Unit 2 of VM Literacy students work through the areas of study 'Understanding issues and voices' and 'Responding to opinions'.

Responding to opinions

In this area of study students practise their use of persuasive language and participate in discussion of issues, either in print, orally or via a digital platform. Students consider their own perspectives on issues and develop reasoned and logical responses to these discussions in a respectful and thoughtful manner. Students consider the arguments presented and critically analyse the language, evidence and logic of the arguments of others so that they can create their own response. In constructing their own responses, students select evidence that supports their viewpoint. Students learn to accurately reference and acknowledge the evidence they select.
