What am I supposed to do?
- The coursework forms 50% of the final mark. The recommended
length is 2000 - 2500 words and it is marked internally and
externally moderated.
- Coursework titles are taken from a bank of titles provided by
the board and selected by the school. If you wish to see the full
selection of titles then see your teacher. However we would prefer
you to stick with our selection - it helps us keep track of all the
work.
- The Specification states that the work must be written by the
student and should include a bibliography which indicates the
materials used just for consultation and those for extensive
research.
- It is imperative that candidates ensure that their work is
legible, we recommend that the work is typed.
- It is also important that you do not lose your work. Store your
work on the computer network at school as well as on disc and your
own hard drive.
- Keep a record of all materials that you use - don't take notes
from a piece of work and then forget the title - try and keep all
your rough work in a file.
- You can sub divide your coursework if you wish and you can
include footnotes, appendices and a glossary.
- Do not embellish for the sake of including more information - it
is more important that you stick to the title.
