  5. SBA Tasks Weighting 20% of Public Assessment Non-practical Practical Related Mode Task type Experiment (12%) Assignment (2%) Investigative Study (6%) ASSN Task code EXPT IS NSS physics School-based Assessment SBA Requirements

  6. Perform experiments suggested in the C & A Guide • Worksheet / brief report / detailed report on experiments performed Task content (student’s work)  In-class time 80 mins Out-of-school time 0 – 60 mins Means of assessment (teacher’s work) Mark worksheet / brief report / detailed report Percentage in SBA 60% Authentication • Hand in the followings in class time: • worksheet / brief report / raw data sheet (if detailed report to be finished at home) Experiment SBA

  7. Task content (student’s work)  Design Process Report In-class time 16 hours Out-of-school time 2 hours Means of assessment (teacher’s work) • Mark proposals • Assess lab/process skills • Mark written/oral reports, etc. Percentage in SBA 10% 10% 10% • Allow group work & reporting • Individual students to be questioned by teacher in class time Authentication SBA Investigative Study

  8. Task content (student’s work) • Examples: • Read materials and write a review • Design a poster • Write a report after visiting, say, a power plant • Develop a multimedia artifact In-class time 1 hour Out-of-school time 3 hours Means of assessment (teacher’s work) Mark assignments Percentage in SBA 10% Authentication • Preparation performed at home • Main part to be finished in class time • May ask students some related questions or even require them to make very short presentation, if needed Assignment SBA Note : With careful planning, an assignment can also be an integral part of Investigative Study.

  9. Number of assessments on SBA tasks EXPT IS ASSN 2 (2 Area A + 2 Area B) S6 1 1 S5 S4 SBA requirements (SBA tasks should spread out evenly across S5 and S6) Note : Ability Area A – Performance in practical work Ability Area B – Reporting of practical work

  10. Total number of experiments (excluding IS) S6 8 S5 S4 6 Learning &Teaching requirements in SBA

  11. SBA REQUIREMENTS Number of assessments on SBA tasks Learning &Teaching requirements in SBA Total number of experiments EXPT ASSN % in SBA 60% 40% S6 2 (2 Area A + 1 Area B) 1 4 S5 S4 3 NSS Combined Science (Physics Part) School –based Assessment (SBA tasks should spread out evenly across S5 and S6) Note: If schools prefer to have IS (8 hours curriculum time provided), it can be counted as 1 Area A + 1 Area B.

  12. Elective Gases, Circular motion, Gravitation, Electric Potential and AC Extension(~30%) X Projectile, Transformer and Power transmission X/2 Core(~70%) Radioactivity and Nuclear energy NSS Physics (X) / Combined Science (Physics) (X/2) / Core
