I tried memorising paragraphs but it didn't go too well so I instead formed two essays - Each with different ideas since half the speeches are to do with national identity, unity, justice and the other half are associated with gender relations and literature. Excluding Deane, this leaves only 2 speeches paragraphs which is a lot easier than memorising the seven in isolation

1) Who discovers?

• Discovery can differ for individuals and their worlds.

2) What is the nature / cause of the discovery?

• Discovery of something for the first time.

• Discovery of something lost, forgotten or concealed.

• Discovery can be sudden and unexpected.

• Discovery can be confronting and provocative.

• Discovery can be fresh and intensely meaningful.

• Discovery can be emotional, creative, intellectual, physical and spiritual.

• The discovery can be evoked by curiosity, necessity or wonder.

3) What is the process of the discovery?

• Discovery can emerge from a process of deliberate and careful planning.

• The process of discovery varies according to personal, cultural, historical and social contexts.

4) What is the response to the discovery?

• Discoveries may be questioned or challenged when viewed from different perspectives.

• The discovery’s value may be reassessed over time.

5) What are the ramifications of the discovery?

• Discovery can lead us to new worlds and values.

• Discovery can stimulate new ideas.

• Discovery can be far-reaching and transformative for the individual and broader society.

• Discovery can offer new understandings and renewed perceptions of ourselves and others.

• Discovery enables us to speculate about future possibilities.

If you allocat the rubric points to the process of discovery it seems to put a huge emphasis on the nature/cause of the discovery and ramifications
