English A exam practice: Evaluate Paper 1 thesis and line of argument

A student needs a thesis for a guided analysis of a Australian public-awareness poster. Choose the focus that gives the essay a clear line of argument. Use the visual organiser to keep claim, evidence, technique, and effect connected. Enter the analytical focus, evidence choice, and technique choice, then choose the interpretation that best explains the reader or audience effect.

Worked practice: build the analysis

Construct the analysis one move at a time, the way an examiner reads it: focus, evidence, technique, then effect.
