Your school is creating a time capsule that will be opened by students in 25 years. A student team must choose a limited number of items and provide written explanations for them.
Write a guide for members of the team. Explain how to select suggestions that will give future students a balanced picture of school life, how to make the contents understandable to them, and how to reach a fair final decision when there is not room for everything.
Your work will be assessed on communication and adaptation to audience and purpose (27 marks), and organisation and technical accuracy (18 marks).
