Teaching for Exam success Unit 1 Teaching for Exam Success Unit 1 Sue Warn and Cameron Dunn Chief Examiners

Teaching for Exam success Unit 1 Areas to explore: Objective items Short data reponse / stimulus and short ‘explain’ questions Data stimulus and extended writing for Section B Perhaps the biggest difference compared to the current AS, is the longer 15 mark Section B, part ‘b’ extended writing

Teaching for Exam success Unit 1 Incline of difficulty:

Teaching for Exam success Unit 1 Section A: Data Stimulus questions (1-3 marks) Expect relatively simple resources. Wide range possible including: Maps / charts Graphs Tables of data Photographs / images Cartoons EXAMS SKILLS SET Careful observation of the resource Standing back: looking for patterns, trends and anomalies Direct use of resource in answer Need to be rapid.

Teaching for Exam success Unit 1 Look at scales and axes Read keys Recognise trends Spot patterns Identify anomalies

Teaching for Exam success Unit 1 Section A: longer explanation questions (4-5 marks) Towards the end of the sequence of sub- questions within a Section A question, answers will become a little more extended There is a shift to reasons/ explanation within 4-5 mark, short questions. This is the top of the incline of difficulty within section A Some questions will move off the resource

Teaching for Exam success Unit 1 Section A practice marking In your packs you will find Exam questions (the SAMs) and resources Mark Schemes ‘Model’ answers

Teaching for Exam success Unit 1 SECTION B: extended questions ‘Realism’ and detail are likely to score highly Credit given for reference to examples These questions are more discursive than Section A Description not really present EXAMS SKILLS SET Careful observation of the resource Explanations and comment Accurate reference to examples and places Argument Key terminology

Teaching for Exam success Unit 1 Resources in Section B – stimulus in nature

Teaching for Exam success Unit 1 Helpful way for students to visualise the task

Teaching for Exam success Unit 1 Summary Much to do in 1 ½ hours Skills that need to be developed: Data response + description Data stimulus + explanation Exemplified writing to the unit content
