Clarification details
Updated June 2016. This clarification has been updated in its entirety to address new issues that have arisen from moderation.
The specific branch of a religious tradition needs to be specified
For many religious traditions, there are broad terms, and then branches of the tradition that do not necessarily share the same beliefs. For example, Christianity is a broad term that covers many aspects of that religious tradition, but the different denominations within Christianity do not necessarily share the same beliefs as one another. It is important to clearly identify which branch of the religious tradition is being assessed, either for or by the student, during the assessment activity.
Wider implications
Students need to focus on at least two implications, and their selection could be determined by the components or essential features of the key beliefs and ultimate questions being analysed. All implications can be from within one or a combination of the suggested areas.
