When using "Other Material" for the answering of HSC Questions, you should follow a checklist for the best
choice of material and well as the best use of that material. A Sample Checklist could be:
- What is the song actually about.
- Is someone going "Into the World" in this song?
- If they are, what are they learning through the process of going "Into the World"?
- Can this song be related to A Simple Gift? Is there a parallel with a character, a concept,
language, mood, an action?
- Is this song delivering a positive or negative message about the transition?
- Is there anything in the musical version that emphasises mood and the positive / negative message?
