2. WE WILL GO
OVER THE
ASSESSMENT • Have your small info
TASK 1 booklets available and
make notes as necessary
3. WHAT IS • Have you collected enough
NEXT?
PLANNING
data?
• How are you going to present
the data?
• How are you going to answer
the written questions?
4. COLLECTION • Check everyone in the
OF DATA
group has a copy of the
results for both St
Leonard’s and Muriwai on
a planning sheet.
• You can also collect any
secondary data you want
ie aerial photos, photos ,
climate data.
5. MARKING • You must have been seen
collecting data
CRITERIA
(IN SMALL • Data tables are produced for
both beaches. (hand in your
BOOKS) Muriwai books and data
collection sheets as evidence)
• For Merit these must be
complete and accurate
6. • The planning and collection of
data can be done as a group
so you can work together on
this. Everyone must have a
copy however.
• From this point on all work is
individual.
7. • You need to think about 3 different
ways you can present this data.
PRESENTATION
OF DATA Ideas are:
• Graphs (each type of graph is one
presentation method)
• Diagrams (ie how the process happens)
• Profiles
• Wind roses
• Sketch maps and field sketches
• Aerial photos and maps
• Photos that are annotated
8. CHECK YOU • Axes labelled
• Title appropriate
KNOW THE • North point for maps and
CONVENTIONS field sketch
NEEDED: • Frame for maps and sketches
• Scale where appropriate (can
estimate)
• Key, labels or annotations
9. MARKING • ACHIEVED: One
CRITERIA presentation method with
conventions
• MERIT: Three presentation
methods with conventions
• EXCELLENCE: Three
presentation methods with
conventions and used to
good effect ie comparison.
10. FOR THESE TO • They must relate to both
COUNT
beaches
• They should allow comparison
to be seen
• They must relate to research
ie annotate maps / photos to
link to research
11. WHEN TO DO • ONE of your presentations
THESE
must be done in the
assessment for authenticity
purposes
• The others may be done at
home and glued into the
correct section of the
booklet.
12. ANALYSIS • Look at your data
QUESTION 1 -
WHAT
presentation. What does this
tell you? What are the trends?
Describe these using specific
information.
• Remember it is about the
DIFFERENCES of the two
beaches. Say what these
differences are.
13. • Use your notes done in class to
ANALYSIS – help you here. This should explain
QUESTION 2 previous question occur.
WHY the trends you noted in the
- WHY • Again remember it is about the
DIFFERENCES of the two beaches
• Use ONLY the space you are given
for your answers. No extra sheets.
You may want to prepare for this
first and plan it out.
14. FINDINGS • These are simple statements
only – you do not need a lot
of writing.
• Go back to the original
research questions and write
about 2-3 sentences on each
of them that answers them
succinctly.
15. HOLISTIC • Task 1 is marked holistically –
MARKING that is you get the average of
all the parts.
• However, you MUST achieve
each part.
• Note that for data collection
you must hand in your raw
data sheets and Muriwai
booklets.
16. WHAT TO • All the correct materials like a ruler, are
protractor etc for presentation you
pencil,
BRING doing
• Your completed field booklet (if not already
in)
• Your data collection sheets
• Any photos, maps etc you want to include
• Any presentations done at home –
remember ONE must be done in the
assessment that answers the Research
Question.
• Your Muriwai class booklet
• Check you have the rubric.
17. IN GENERAL: • This assessment is not hard if
you PREPARE for it before hand.
• Always use the rubric to guide
you as to what must be done.
• Give it your best shot.
Remember there is NO
reassessment of this and you will
only be allowed to resubmit if a
border line case. This is not your
choice but the markers.
18. • It must be completed at
school. The booklet stays
with your teacher.
• You have next week to
complete this in. If you
need an extra study
period then it is up to you
to arrange this.
19. TIME FRAME • Up to 4 PERIODS TO DO THE
RESEARCH PROJECT/ PART 2
• 1 week more of Theory in Green
books
• 1 LESSON Background to PART 3
• Up to 3 LESSONS TO WRITE UP
PART 3. (Week 10)
20. TODAY
• Check you have enough data
• Check you have a copy of the data collected at
both beaches on a sheet
• Work out your presentation methods and
what to do at home
• Check you understand enough about the
analysis to ask for assistance if need be.
• Start on your original presentation.
21. EVALUATION
(HALF PAGE EACH)
• A. Think about the findings you obtained from your research.
Were these what you expected? How useful do you think these
results were? To what extent did they allow you to make valid
conclusions?
• B. Evaluate the research process. You may wish to consider when
you do these things whether your research methods and
approaches allowed you to collect sufficient, valid data and
whether your processing and/or presenting was accurate,
detailed and/or appropriate for your purposes. Discuss both the
strengths and weaknesses.
22. • C. What are the alternative methods you could have taken to
research this issue? (collecting, analysing and presenting). What
would the effects of this have been on the resulting findings?
23. EVALUATION
• Achieved - Evaluate the research process or findings
• Merit – Evaluate the research process and findings
• Excellence – Critically evaluate the research process and findings
24. EVALUATION
(CONT)
• Divide your evaluation up into findings and the process.
• Critically evaluate means to examine alternative methods or
approaches to research and discuss the implications of such
alternatives
25. FINDINGS
• Were they what you expected? Why or why not?
• What let you down? Were the conditions typical when you
collected your information?
26. THE
RESEARCH
PROCESS
• What let you down in terms of the following:
• The field equipment
• Amount of data collected
• Methods of collecting data
• Timing of data collection
• The group collecting it – were all groups the same?
• Processing techniques.
27. ALTERNATIVE
METHODS
• If you had no budget or time constraints how could you have
improved your research?
• What other methods could you have included?
• What would the implications of using these alternative methods
have been?
28. WRITE UP
• You will be given 2 periods to write this up. Aim to do IGI’s one
period and the evaluation the next.
• If you run out of time you may use 1 other period including a
study or lunchtime
29. WRITE UP
(CONT)
• You may only use the space provided – we are looking for quality
not quantity!!
• You may NOT bring any other material to this section.
• The definitions of the GCs will be available on a handout sheet.
30. FINALLY!
• The aim is to prepare yourself for this assessment – you only get
1 try at this so give it your best shot!! Work out what you are

• GOOD LUCK!!!
