Introduction
In this unit on The Importance of being Earnest, we have completed a total of three
creative tasks - Writing a monologue on a character who has never appeared in the play,
making our own interpretation of The Importance of being Earnest, and writing two love
letters between Cecily and Algernon. By doing these tasks, it allowed me to express my
creativity and incorporate my thoughts on the film while emphasizing the connections
between the modern and the Victorian era. These tasks also allowed me to develop a better
and stronger understanding of the story and thus, provided me the chance to express my
viewpoints and creativity. For this rationale, I have decided to do it on the proposal as I
believe that I have used the most ATL skills - namely creative thinking, communication, and
information literacy skills.

effective presentation style for a proposal. In terms of collecting and referencing the
information, I have taken inspiration from the original playbook as I’ve kept most of the
characters and themes the same. I then made alterations based on the book and I followed it
up with reasonings behind it (see image 4 below). Image 4 shown below shows the reasons
as to why I wish to keep the theme same, hence shows my knowledge to the play, my
information literacy skill (specifically research/collecting information), and the reasons behind
my alterations.
Conclusion
In conclusion, I have clearly demonstrated the use of various ATL skills towards The
Importance of Being Earnest and my chosen creative task - which is the proposal. I think
through the creative task that I have chosen, I have successfully displayed my knowledge
and understanding of the play as most of the elements that I have added/changed comes
from my real-life experiences and knowledge that I have. By doing these creative tasks, it
gave me the opportunity to expand my imagination towards the original play and make
relevant connections to our real-life; and using our own ideas to further develop and create
better understandings and interpretations to the story itself.
