Working independently does not mean going it alone: be guided through the Extended Project from start to finish and every stage in between. Written by Christine Andrews, who has extensive experience of EPQs, this step-by-step course companion will help you to: - Tackle every stage, including choosing a topic and planning your time, developing your project and keeping a log, and delivering the presentation and evaluating your finished product. - Make the most of opportunities to practise the skills required, with activities you can adapt as necessary. - Get inspired with a wealth of examples from different types of projects. - Develop effective strategies to avoid common pitfalls. - Create a project you can be proud of - one you can use in your personal statement, to make your university application stand out. Also available are PowerPoint presentations and a scheme of work put together by the author to facilitate the 30 hours of taught content. The presentation and scheme of work are not part of the AQA approval process.
Answering six mark questions in your GCSE is much more than just writing down six correct things. There is a skill to answering them that needs to be practiced. Here I have written 25 questions on each subject, given you the answers and guided you through how to answer to get full marks. The more you practice, the more confident you'll be in the exam!
