Downloaded from hlayiso.com Civil Technology: Construction 3 DBE/PAT 2021 NSC SECTION 1 1. INTRODUCTION The 18 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 Technical Sciences, Technical Mathematics  SERVICES: Consumer Studies, Hospitality Studies, Tourism  TECHNOLOGY: Civil Technology, Electrical Technology, Mechanical Technology and Engineering Graphics and Design. A practical assessment task (PAT) mark 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. test or examination. 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. SECTION 2 2. GUIDELINES FOR THE TEACHER (These guidelines must be explained clearly to the learners.) 2.1 The structure of the PAT for Civil Technology The PAT accounts for the skills the learner has mastered. This is assessed at intervals and requires the learner to engage in multiple practical sessions. During these weekly sessions, skills such as simulation, experimentation, hand skills, tool skills, machine skills and workshop practice are honed and perfected to the point where the learner may engage in the tasks set out for that particular term. The PAT accounts for 25% of the learner's promotion mark. 2.2 Management of the PAT The PAT should commence in Term 1, as this is a lengthy and drawn-out process and CANNOT be left to the last minute. The model should be done over THREE terms starting in Term 1 and Phase 1 should be done concurrently with the model in Term 1. Phase 1 must be completed, marked and internally moderated by the end of Term 1. Phase 2 must be completed, marked and internally moderated by 30 September 2021. (a) All the phases of the PAT should be completed and presented for assessment by the end of September 2021 to allow sufficient time for the external moderation. (b) During this phase, the teacher will do any final assessments that are outstanding. All the phases of the PAT are kept safely until the moderation process is completed (both provincial and national moderation). (c) The internal moderator/HOD must conduct PAT moderation throughout the year. Copyright reserved Please turn over

Downloaded from hlayiso.com Civil Technology: Construction 4 DBE/PAT 2021 NSC (d) It is imperative that the criteria are adhered to from the beginning, as this will form the basis for assessment. (e) Teachers cannot penalise learners on points that are not included in the initial criteria. (f) When learners are selected during moderation (face moderation), they may be required to showcase their skills and knowledge. All teachers must design a pacesetter in line with the time frames specified in the PAT to indicate the completion dates for the different phases of the PAT. The teacher must manage this process to avoid crisis management and unnecessary stress closer to the completi on date of the PAT. The submission dates for the different phases of the PAT, as indicated in the pacesetter, should be given to the learners in writing. 2.3 Administration of the PAT The PAT should be based on real-life situations and should be administered and completed under controlled conditions. After studying the guidelines, teachers must fully explain the requirements of the different phases of the PAT and the criteria, as indicated in the assessment tools and mark schedules, to the learners. This will ensure that learners and teachers have a common understanding of the assessment tools and what is expected of the learners. Teachers are requested to make copies of SECTIONS 3 to 5 of this document and hand them to the learners not later than the first week after the opening of schools in February 2021. The products/models should not leave the classroom/workshop and must be kept in a safe place at all times when learners are not working on them. 2.4 Assessment and moderation of the PAT The PAT for Grade 12 is externally set and externally moderated, but internally assessed by the teacher and moderated by the internal moderator/HOD. 2.5 Assessment Frequent developmental feedback is needed to guide and support the learner to ensure that he/she is on the right track. Both formal and informal assessment should be conducted during the different phases of the PAT. Informal assessment may be conducted by the learner himself/herself, by a peer group, or by the teacher. Formal assessment should always be conducted by the teacher and the results will be recorded. The teacher must take into account the requirements of the assessment of all the phases of the PAT and therefore plan the assessment programme of the PAT accordingly. 2.6 Moderation During the moderation of the PAT, all the phases of the PAT must be presented to the internal moderator as well as the external moderator. Where required, the moderator should be able to call on the learner to explain the function and principles of operation and also request the learner to exhibit the skills acquired during practical sessions for moderation purposes.

CONCLUSION On completion of the practical assessment task learners should be able to demonstrate their understanding of the industry, enhance their knowledge, skills, values and reasoning abilities as well as establish connections to life outside the classroom and address real world challenges. The PAT furthermore develops learner's life skills and provides opportunities for learners to engage in their own learning. Copyright reserved
