Lesson Details

- The hollistic approach to answering encompasses all three assessment objectives.
- The command word used in the question determines the AO3 skill required.

Common misconception
For a 9 mark answer I have to make two knowledge points, two applications and five AO3s.
9 mark answers are marked holistically using a levelled response grid. Level descriptors are applied to the overall response. A quantative approach to answering these questions can be limiting to develop the breadth of knowledge and depth of AO3.
