Reflect on learning to propose personal and/or collective action in response to an issue or challenge, taking into account different perspectives, and describe the expected effects

Elaborations

• reflecting on personal values and attitudes and how these influence responses to an issue (for example, the effect of perceptions of crime on liveability; how their membership of groups affects their perceptions) (Skills: Critical and Creative Thinking, Personal and Social Capability, Ethical Understanding, Intercultural Understanding)
• applying a process approach to respond to an issue or challenge (for example, conducting an analysis using processes such as a SWOT analysis; developing a plan of action that incorporates a consultation process that ensures a range of views are heard and people are given opportunities to respond) (Skills: Literacy, Critical and Creative Thinking, Personal and Social Capability, Ethical Understanding)
• explaining different perspectives on an issue or challenge (for example, sustainability, intercultural behaviour) and proposing action after considering these perspectives and the possible outcomes for different groups (Skills: Literacy, Critical and Creative Thinking, Personal and Social Capability, Intercultural Understanding)
• deciding when consensus is an effective process for a collective action and when it is not (Skills: Critical and Creative Thinking, Personal and Social Capability, Ethical Understanding)
• discussing the consequences of decisions (for example, economic, business, civic or personal decisions), considering alternative responses and predicting the potential effect of those responses (Skills: Literacy, Critical and Creative Thinking, Personal and Social Capability, Ethical Understanding)
• using knowledge of the past to inform views on probable and preferred (individual or collective) futures, explaining reasoning to justify futures scenarios (Skills: Literacy, Critical and Creative Thinking, Ethical Understanding)
