1.6+(91006)+NZ+Society

=On this page are some practice questions for the NZ Society question. Remember to focus on the event you are most interested in - the likelihood is you will remember more of it if you liked learning about it.=

=There are also some links to Exemplars from NZQA website which give you ideas about how to answer the questions and what the likely marks would be.=

c) How was the event significant to New Zealanders? How did the event shape or change New Zealand society?
Advice for answering the quesions a) try and give a clear chronological description of the event. Start with the causes or lead up to the event, then describe the event itself, and finally give a brief summary of the events that followed. Avoid mentioning the significance, save that for question c). b) choose two groups that have strong positions. Hitler is easier to pick than some random politician in Britain because of his strong views. Make sure you mention an action they take and link it to their views. (ex. Hitler was racist towards the Jews. That is why he created the Holocaust which killed 6 million Jews) c) This is where you talk about the important ideas. Was this event one of a kind? Did it change something about NZ? Are we more or less racist as a result? Did it lead to something else important later in time? Did it change people's views towards a group or idea?

Here is a link to exemplars on the NZQA site that show you how detailed you need to answer for each grade.
