Downloaded from hlayiso.com Agricultural Technology 3 DBE/PAT 2017 NSC 1. INTRODUCTION The 16 Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement subjects which contain a practical component all include a practical assessment task (PAT). These subjects are: • AGRICULTURE: Agricultural Management Practices, Agricultural Technology • ARTS: Dance Studies, Design, Dramatic Arts, Music, Visual Arts • SCIENCES: Computer Applications Technology, Information Technology • SERVICES: Consumer Studies, Hospitality Studies, Tourism • TECHNOLOGY: Civil Technology, Electrical Technology, Mechanical Technology and Engineering Graphics and Design A practical assessment task (PAT) is a compulsory component of the final promotion mark for all candidates offering subjects that have a practical component and counts 25% (100 marks) of the end-of-year examination mark. The PAT is implemented across the first three terms of the school year. This is broken down into different phases or a series of smaller activities that make up the PAT. The PAT allows for learners to be assessed on a regular basis during the school year and it also allows for the assessment of skills that cannot be assessed in a written format, e.g. tests or examinations. It is therefore important that schools ensure that all learners complete the practical assessment tasks within the stipulated period to ensure that learners are resulted at the end of the school year. The planning and execution of the PAT differs from subject to subject. 2. TEACHER GUIDELINES 2.1 Practical Assessment Task (PAT) for 2017 The aim of the PAT is to teach learners to solve technological problems in the agricultural environment by using critical, innovative and thinking skills. The PAT comprises a design component, manufacturing component and a final product. The PAT leads the learner to design and develop the product according to technological processes. Schools will be informed of the Grade 12 project at the beginning of term 4 of the Grade 11 year to allow the teacher and learner to do planning in advance. A scenario and complete layout of the example model that may be used as the PAT for 2017 are given on the next page. Copyright reserved Please turn over
Downloaded from hlayiso.com Agricultural Technology 4 DBE/PAT 2017 NSC SCENARIO Personal safety is very important in every workshop or farm situation where physical labour is used to do practical work. Serious injury of farm workers can be prevented by using relevant equipment when removing fence posts from the ground. Design [Z1] a piece of equipment that can effectively be used to remove steel fence posts that are difficult to remove from the ground. The piece of equipment must be versatile in order to be used in various circumstances or conditions. It must be light, simple, durable and easy to handle but sturdy enough to carry heavy loads. The piece of equipment must be foldable and must not take up much storage space. Use various technological processes to help you in the design and manufacturing of this piece of equipment e.g. planning, investigation, research and various practical skills. 2.2 How to administer the PAT This PAT document must be used by the teacher as a guideline to do the PAT. The learner must design and plan the entire PAT individually with the teacher's guidance. The teacher will provide the learners with the problem statement only. The idea is that all the learners should have different PAT designs. The teacher must evaluate the learner's design for practicality and make suggestions before the learner submits the final design portfolio. If the school/learners decide to do an alternative PAT, that PAT must comply with the prescribed standards set out in this PAT guideline document. This will include evidence of the design portfolio, work procedures, rubrics and evidence of the final project. The criteria and format to assess the design portfolio, manufacturing process and final product must be the same as that of the prescribed PAT. The project must consist of at least SEVEN of the criteria given on pages 46 and 47 of the Agricultural Technology Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS).

Downloaded from hlayiso.com Agricultural Technology 5 DBE/PAT 2017 NSC The model should have functional value and should be suitable for use in real-life farm and workshop situations. The learners should be familiar with the assessment criteria before they start with the task. The PAT must be done under the supervision of the designated teacher. The practical assessment task in Grade 12 is set externally, assessed internally and moderated externally. The project is completed under controlled conditions and is assessed by means of a rubric. The promotion mark of Agricultural Technology consists of a PAT component of 100 marks (25%), a school-based assessment (SBA) component of 100 marks (25%) and a final examination component of 200 marks (50%). The PAT contributes 25% of the total promotion mark (400) in Grade 12. The practical assessment task counts 100 marks and consists of a design portfolio (25 marks), a manufacturing process (50 marks) and the final product (25 marks). Before a learner can commence with the manufacturing process, the design portfolio must be completed and assessed by the teacher. This done so that the teacher can identify design flaws for the learner to correct. The design portfolio and final project must be available for monitoring and moderation. The PAT must be evaluated, checked and authenticated by the teacher before being presented as the learner's final evidence of performance. The teacher's PAT file must contain evidence of: (a) The PAT task (b) A complete record of assessment that must always be available for monitoring and moderation purposes. The design portfolio and the project must be available at the school for monitoring and moderation during the entire school year. External moderation will be done by the respective provincial moderators and the national Department of Basic Education. No learner is allowed to take his/her project home before external moderation has been completed. Failure by the teacher to maintain a record of the assessment of the PAT is misconduct and will be dealt with in terms of paragraph 5(3) of the policy document, National Policy on the Conduct, Administration and Management of the National Senior Certificate: A qualification at Level 4 on the National Qualifications Framework (NQF), or other appropriate measures. The absence of marks for the practical assessment task in Grade 10–12, without a valid reason, will result in the candidate registered for that particular subject receiving an incomplete result. The candidate will be given three weeks before the commencement of the final end-of-year examination to submit the outstanding practical assessment task. Should the candidate fail to present the practical assessment task he/she will be informed that he/she did not meet the minimum requirements for promotion and that he/she must repeat the subject the following year.

Downloaded from hlayiso.com Agricultural Technology 6 DBE/PAT 2017 NSC 2.3 Phases in the development of the PAT project The project should be completed over the following three phases: 2.3.1 Phase 1: Design Portfolio Learners must identify the problem or need in their chosen project. He/she must also investigate the project, generate ideas and arrive at possible design solutions to make or produce the model, to evaluate it and to give a solution for the problem/need. The evidence for this phase will be placed in the design portfolio which can be started at the beginning of term 4 of the Grade 11 year and continues to the end of January of the Grade 12 year. In this phase the learner must be encouraged to be creative and to show initiative. A Declaration of Authenticity (ANNEXURE D) must be completed by each learner before final moderation. The design portfolio should include evidence of how the development of the product was approached, as indicated below: • Analysis and planning of the assignment • Relationship between technology and society and environment • Sketches, diagrams or calculations • Materials used • Tools used • General safety rules that are applicable • Comparisons of processes and tools to be used • Cost calculations and material list • Knowledge and skills needed in the manufacturing process • Manufacturing processes that were followed • Planning of time from the start to the final product • Research or investigations undertaken • Any other information that is relevant to the project Format of the design portfolio: Cover page: Learner name: Grade: School: Examination number: Year: Table of Assignment Contents: Planning and research Design sketches Material list Tools needed and relevant safety measures Comparisons of processes and tools to be used Cost calculations Source list Steps to follow Any additional information Copyright reserved Please turn over

The learner then commences with Phase 2. The model must be completed by the middle of term 3 in Grade 12. The learner is expected to manufacture the model in the school's workshop, under close supervision of the teacher. Processes not performed by the learner cannot be assessed as part of the learner's work. The model must include a number of practical skills, but remember that the model must adhere to the minimum number of skills, as prescribed by the subject CAPS document. Continuous assessment must be done by the teacher during the manufacturing process to evaluate and assess certain skills and processes with the aid of the rubric attached (ANNEXURE B). 2.3.3 Phase 3: Final product Learners submit the models for assessment by the end of term 3. The planning done in phase 1 (design portfolio) should also be submitted for assessment of the final product. For final assessment the model must be completed and fully functional. The final product must correspond with the planning in Phase 1. 2.4 Criteria and guidelines for PAT assessment The PAT consists of three phases. The teacher must assess each phase with the aid of the rubrics attached. • The DESIGN PORTFOLIO must be completed and marked not later than the end of term 1. As soon as a learner is finished with the design portfolio and it has been assessed and approved by the teacher, he/she may commence with phase 2. The teacher must use the rubric on ANNEXURE A to assess the design portfolio. • The MANUFACTURING PROCESS is a continuous process and the various skills must be assessed continuously by the teacher when the different skills are applied. The rubric on ANNEXURE B must be used. • The FINAL PRODUCT must be evaluated and assessed using the rubric on ANNEXURE C. • ANNEXURE D is the Declaration of Authenticity and must be completed by each learner and the teacher. • ANNEXURE E must be used by the teacher to ensure that the Agricultural Technology workshop and facility is up to standard for external moderation. • ANNEXURES F and G are examples of mark sheets that may be used.
