15 minutes planning + 120 minutes writing. Everything comes from Unit 4: respectful relationships in the post-schooling transition. You get a stimulus book (about 10 items: tables, bar charts, star ratings, feedback panels) and exactly two questions:
The wall: never carry data across. Context numbers stay in Q1, innovation numbers stay in Q2. Signpost every claim: "Stimulus 2 shows 41% in 2025..." A number the marker cannot trace earns nothing.
THE RULE OF TWOS. Every part of the marking marks exactly TWO of everything: two RE-AIM steps, two diffusion variables, two data trends, two determinants, two barriers + two enablers. A third RE-AIM letter earns literally zero. Inside 500 words: pick your best two of each, go deep.
A 3 becomes a 4 with one sentence of significance. A 2 becomes a 3 by quoting the stimulus.
| Letter | Asks | Counted in |
|---|---|---|
| Reach | Who did it actually get to? Was that the target group? | Individuals |
| Effectiveness | Did it work? What changed, by how much? | Individuals |
| Adoption | Did settings take it up? | ORGANISATIONS |
| Implementation | Delivered as designed, consistently? | Individuals |
| Maintenance | Did it last after the launch buzz? | Individuals |
The trap that catches everyone: "lots of students downloaded it" is REACH, never Adoption. People = R, E, I, M. Settings saying yes = Adoption. The formula for marks: a number from the stimulus + a RE-AIM letter + a judgement word.
The five characteristics:
| Characteristic | The question it answers |
|---|---|
| Relative advantage | Is it actually better than what exists? |
| Compatibility | Does it fit how people already live? |
| Complexity | How hard does it LOOK to use? (hard = slow uptake) |
| Trialability | Can you try it without committing? |
| Observability | Can people SEE it working for others? |
Stages: innovation development → dissemination (four levers: communication, persuasion, resources, regulations) → institutionalisation (it becomes routine).
Adopter curve: innovators → early adopters → early majority → late majority → laggards. Opinion leaders and champions speed everything up.
The footy version (for memory, never for the exam page): a new boot brand spreads through a league like any innovation: captains wear them first, keen players copy, most follow, one bloke refuses forever.
| Term | Means |
|---|---|
| Transition | One change in roles or status: leaving school, moving out |
| Trajectory | The LONG pattern across many transitions |
| Turning point | The change that bends the whole pattern |
| Reverse transition | Going back: moving home after moving out |
| Cohort | People moving through the same changes together (your Year 12s ARE one) |
| On time / off time | At the socially expected stage, or not |
| Emerging adulthood | The 5 features: identity exploration · possibilities · feeling in between · self-focus · instability |
Free marks: transition vs trajectory vs turning point, crisp. One change / the long pattern / the change that bends the pattern.
| Term | Means |
|---|---|
| Salutogenic approach | Strengths-based: what CREATES health, not what causes disease |
| General resistance resource (GRR) | What helps people cope through stressors. Respectful relationships are Unit 4's GRR, use that exact phrase |
| Barriers / enablers | What decreases / increases access to health resources |
| Determinants | Physical · psychological · social · economic. Name the category, then link it |
| Ottawa verbs | Advocate = speak up for it · Enable = give skills and resources · Mediate = get groups working together. Your recommendation uses one |
| Health literacy | The skills to find, understand and USE health info; predicts uptake |
The data-trend formula: value + year TO value + year, a trend verb with an adverb, then a conclusion tied to a determinant, resource, barrier or enabler.
"Stimulus 3 shows weekly club participation fell steeply from 64% in 2022 to 31% in 2025, a significant barrier because clubs are a key community resource for practising respectful relationships beyond school."
That one sentence shape, twice, is 8 of Q1's 24 marks. The drills train it.
Rough day? One drills run on your phone, lying down, counts. Or just blurt the five RE-AIM letters and what each counts. Keeping it warm beats doing it perfectly.
