<strong>Work</strong> <strong>sample</strong> summary<br />
Grades are allocated at the end of a unit or<br />
semester based on the rank order of<br />
students. Grades should not be allocated<br />
to individual assessments.<br />
Assessment type: Theory and composition<br />
This is an example of a <strong>Western</strong> <strong>Art</strong> theory task completed under test conditions. Students were required to<br />
complete questions based on the recognition and writing of key signatures, intervals, triads, chords and scales. In<br />
addition, there were three transposition questions to complete, two of which were instrument based questions.<br />
In this work <strong>sample</strong> most questions were answered competently demonstrating a mostly accurate application of<br />
music theory skills, but there were some inconsistencies evident. There were several errors across questions<br />
involving the use of accidentals and key signatures, particularly when writing minor scales and two of the<br />
transposition questions were incorrectly written.<br />

<strong>Stage</strong> 1<br />

students. Grades should not be allocated<br />
to individual assessments.<br />
The student has<br />
provided the correct<br />
notes and key<br />
signature, but the<br />
melody is written at the<br />
wrong octave, needing<br />
to be an octave higher<br />
than indicated.<br />
The student has<br />
confused the direction<br />
the melody is to be<br />
transposed, writing it<br />
up a Major 2nd instead<br />
of transposing it down<br />
a Major 2nd into<br />
concert or sounding<br />
pitch.<br />
Correctly transposes<br />
the example up a Major<br />
6th, providing the<br />
correct key signature.<br />

Provides the correct<br />
notes and accidentals<br />

Writes only two chords<br />
correctly, providing<br />
incorrect or no<br />
accidentals, indicating<br />
inconsistent knowledge<br />
of key signatures and<br />
chord structure.<br />
Provides the correct<br />
notes and key<br />
signature, but omits the<br />
raised 7ths and<br />
consequently<br />
incorrectly identifies the<br />
semitones.<br />
