This is a three-part resource for students undertaking the NSW HSC Common Module Texts and Human Experience.
 
1. A generic essay plan shows students how to compose an essay suitable for Stage 6, progressing them from the simpler PEEL/TEAL models of Stage 4 and 5.
 
2. A sample essay for the prescribed text, David Malouf's novel An Imaginary Life, answers the question: Texts raise questions which provide insights into the human experience. To what extent has David Malouf’s An Imaginary Life raised questions which provide insights into the human experience?
 
3. There is also a second copy of the essay, marked up to show how it follows the plan, and with five short questions which require students to engage critically with the essay and its form.
