  10. Fo Types of Formal Assessments Report Oral presentation Project Case Studies Examinations Data Response Control Test Reports Memorandum

  11. Assignment Assignment as part of the POA – formal assessment • Unlike the project an assignment is a task/activity that learners can do in a few days (e.g. 2 – 3 days) • Learners are given a task over a few days (which can be over a weekend), e.g. learners given information to complete, such as information from a Case Study or Data Response in Business Studies. Where the assignment is not a Case Study or Data Response: • Clear criteria should be given to learners against which the assignment will be assessed. • Depending on the instructions of the assignment, learners may be required to acknowledge sources of information. Assignments can also be done as part of informal assessment (daily)

  12. Case Study • Learners are presented with a real-life situation, a problem or an incident related to the topic. • They are expected to assume a particular role in articulating the position of e.g. Owner of a Business, Marketing Manager, Production Manager, etc. • They would draw on their own experience, the experience of peers or prior learning to interpret, analyse and solve a problem(s).

  13. Case Study Continued • Newspaper articles, magazine articles, and TV or radio presentations form excellent case studies. Learners have to read and/or listen, digest the business or economic information and then make informed decisions. • Case studies in BCM are a very good way of keeping the subject up to date and relevant. They always form part of the examinations in BCM subjects. • Case studies/scenarios need to be contextualized into a specific subject, e.g. “The impact of HIV/AIDS on the Business” – most candidates in the Grade 12 Business Studies exam contextualized it into Life Orientation.

  14. Report • A report in BCM subjects is generally a written evidence of analysis and interpretation of the business information. It can be short or long. • In a project the report is longer. Other reports are shorter than a report in a project and it is specific to the topic, e.g. learners are given a SWOT Analysis or Business scenario to analyse and interpret. After that they write a report, or • a business manager has come to you for advice (after studying the business financial statements) on whether the business is experiencing liquidity problems. • This will always be shorter than a report in a project.

  15. Presentation

  16. Presentation • Presentations are very important to BCM learners. • In future learners will be expected to present the business information such as their business plans or the financial statements of their businesses when lobbying for funds from financial institutions. • Some will be expected to present the analysed results of the economic conditions of a country or financial indicators to the public.

  17. Project A project is given a longer period of time to complete as it involves some form of research, consolidating and choosing relevant information and preparing a written document (e.g. report) as evidence or constructing a model. Research will always form part of the project, in other words the project is the evidence of the Research conducted.

  18. Characteristics of a project A project should have the following characteristics: • A finite and defined life cycle • Defined and measurable business products • A corresponding set of activities (or elements) to achieve the business products • A defined amount of resources • A defined responsibility, to manage the project. A project will take learners weeks to complete, hence in the Business Studies CAPS Document (Annual Teaching Plan) there are textboxes in which we indicated that “a project must always be given to learners a term before submission date”.

  19. Project • All grades

  20. Plagiarism • Plagiarism is when you use someone else's words or ideas and pass them off as your own. • It's not allowed in school, college, or beyond

  23. PURPOSE of Amended NCS Recap

  24. PROJECT A lack of academic 'preparedness', in terms of both social class and the high school curriculum is cited as one of the reasons why students fail to or take longer to master degree requirements (Scott et al., 2007: 42-3).

Choosing the most suitable cell phone company as your service provider can be challenging and a daunting task.” Investigate ONE cell phone company in South Africa , write a compelling essay on your findings and make recommendations to the suitability or not of the company you’ve researched.

  32. PROJECT IN TEXT REFERENCING Bonikowske (1987) states that learners usually display behaviour which indicates that they are at risk of dropping out long before they actually do so. According to President Obama (2010) the drop-out rate had to be reduced because it is undermining America’s future economic potential. REFERENCE LIST Bonikowske, D. 1987.
