HSC Swedish Continuers case studies

The HSC Swedish Continuers course is a New South Wales senior secondary language subject for students who have already studied Swedish for several years and want formal recognition of that background. It suits learners who can hold a conversation, follow authentic spoken and written Swedish, and write organised texts, and who want a school-leaving qualification that demonstrates competence to universities and employers. The external examination tests three skill areas: listening and responding, reading and responding, and writing in Swedish. Tasks use authentic-style materials such as conversations, interviews, articles and notices, and ask candidates to demonstrate comprehension, interpret meaning and produce their own Swedish for different purposes and audiences. The HSC Swedish Continuers case studies are 6 cases and about 2,115 words.
