T3w1 focus on equality

Learning objective: to accurately process written texts into key information and supporting information
Success criteria:

This week we are looking at equality, and the debates about equality in New Zealand.  This topic will form the basis of our third listening skills assessment, and of our first academic writing project for the term.

Monday is all about identifying the hot topics around equality in New Zealand.  Questions which have provoked a lot of debate about equality in New Zealand in the past include:

  1. Should women have the vote?
  2. Should the terms of the Treaty of Waitangi be respected?
  3. Should religion be part of school education?
  4. Do men and women's sport get equal coverage and sponsorship in New Zealand?
  5. Should it be legal for adults to have consenting sex with their partner of choice?
  6. Should people of all sexual orientations be able to marry?
  7. How should tax money be spent so that people get equal health care no matter where they live in New Zealand?
I have created a table for you to each complete on this.  I have smart-shared this document to your EAP313 folders, and have printed versions for those who prefer to handwrite.
