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 • TECHNOLOGIES: Civil Technology; Electrical Technology; Mechanical Technology; Engineering Graphics and Design A practical assessment task (PAT) mark is a compulsory component of the final promotion mark for all learners who offer subjects that have practical components 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 promoted at the end of the school year. The planning and execution of the PAT differs from subject to subject. Practical assessment tasks are designed to develop and demonstrate a learner's ability to integrate a variety of skills in order to solve a problem. The PAT also uses a technological process to inform the learner what steps needs to be followed to derive a solution for the problem. The 2017 PAT has three focus areas with projects and simulations in each of the following fields: • Electrical • Electronics • Digital Electronics The PAT task consists of four simulations and a practical project. The teacher may choose any relevant practical project and use a combination of the simulations available. The teacher has to apply assessment on an on-going basis while the learner is developing the required skills. The learners should complete four simulations and also manufacture a practical project. The PAT incorporates all the skills the learner developed throughout the year. The PAT ensures that all the different skills will have been acquired by learners on completion of the practical work, that is electrical, analogue and digital electronics as well as the correct use of tools and instruments.

Downloaded from hlayiso.com Electrical Technology 4 DBE/PAT 2017 NSC – Grade 11 Requirements for presentation Each learner must present the following: • PAT file with all the evidence of simulations, design and prototyping. A copy of the PAT 2017 cover page and the relevant simulations and assessment sheets should be copied and handed to each learner to include in the file. • Practical project with: o Enclosure  The file must include a design.  The enclosure and the design must match.  No cardboard boxes are allowed.  Plastic and metal enclosures are acceptable.  The enclosure should be accessible for scrutiny inside.  Lids that are secured with screws are preferred. o Circuit board  The file should include the PCB design.  The PCB must be mounted inside the enclosure in such a manner that it may be removed for scrutiny.  Switches, potentiometers, connectors and other items must be mounted.  Wiring must be neat and bound/wrapped.  Wiring must be long enough to allow for the PCB to be removed and inspected with ease. o Logo and Name  The file should contain the logo and name design.  Logo and name must be prominent on the enclosure. The PAT will have a financial impact on the school's budget and school management teams are required to make provision to accommodate this particular expense. PAT components and other items must be acquired timely for use by the learners before the end of the first term at the start of the academic year. It is the responsibility of the HOD to ensure that the teacher is progressing with the PAT from the start of the school year. Provincial departments are responsible for setting up moderation timetables and consequently PATs should be completed in time for moderation. 2. TEACHER GUIDELINES 2.1 How to administer the PATs Teachers must ensure that learners complete the simulations required for each term. The project should be started in January in order to ensure its completion by August. All formal assessment is the teacher's responsibility. The PAT should be completed during the first three terms and must be ready at the start of PAT moderation. Teachers must make copies of the relevant simulations and hand them to learners at the beginning of each term. The PAT must not to leave the workshop and must be kept in a safe place at all times when the learner is not working on it. Adhere to the weightings of the PAT and teachers are not allowed to change the weightings of the different sections. Copyright reserved Please turn over
Downloaded from hlayiso.com Electrical Technology 5 DBE/PAT 2017 NSC – Grade 11 2.2 How to mark/assess the PATs The PAT for Grade 11 will be set and assessed internally, but externally moderated. All formal assessment will be done by the teacher. The teacher is required to produce a working model and model answer file which sets the baseline for assessment at a Highly Competent Level for every project choice exercised by the learners. This file must include all the simulations with answers the teacher has done him-/herself. The teacher will use the model answers and project to assess the simulations and projects of the learners. Once a facet sheet has been completed by the teacher, assessment will be deemed to be complete. No re-assessment will be done once the facet sheets have been completed and captured by the teacher. Learners must ensure that the work is done to the standard required before the teacher finally assesses the PAT during each stage of completion. Copyright reserved Please turn over

Downloaded from hlayiso.com Electrical Technology 7 DBE/PAT 2017 NSC – Grade 11 2.4 Moderation of PATs Provincial moderation of each term's simulations will start as early as the following term. Simulations 1 and 2 should be moderated as soon as the second term starts. Similarly, simulations 3 and 4 should be moderated in July. However, the project should only be moderated on completion. During the moderation of the PAT the learner's file and project must be presented to the moderator. The moderation process is as follows: • During moderation learners are randomly selected to demonstrate the various simulations of the PAT. All four simulations will be moderated. • The teacher is required to build an exemplar model for each type of project chosen for the school. • This model must be on display during moderation. • The teacher's model forms the standard of the moderation at Level 4 (Highly Competent). • Level 5 assessments must exceed the model of the teacher in skill and finishing. • Learners being moderated will have access to their files during moderation and may refer to the simulations they completed earlier in the year. • Learners may not ask assistance from other learners during moderation. • All projects and files must be on display for the moderator. • If a learner is unable to repeat the simulation or cannot produce a working circuit during moderation, marks will be deducted and circuits will be assessed as not being operational. • The moderator will randomly select not fewer than two projects (not simulations) and the learners involved will have to explain how the project was manufactured. • 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 through the simulations for moderation purposes. • On completion the moderator will, if needed, adjust the marks of the group up or downwards, depending on the outcome of moderation. • Normal examination protocols for appeals will be adhered to if a dispute arises from adjustments made. 2.5 Absence/Non-submission of tasks In the absence of a PAT mark in Electrical Technology, without a valid reason, the learner will be given three weeks before the commencement of the final end-of-year examination to submit the outstanding task(s). Should the learner fail to fulfill the outstanding PAT requirement, such a learner will be awarded a zero for that PAT component. 2.6 Simulations Simulations are circuits, experiments and tests which the learner will have to build, test and measure and do practically as part of the development of practical skills. These skills have to be illustrated to the external moderator who visits the school at intervals during the school year. Teachers who use simulation programs on computers are welcome to use them for learners to practise on. However, it is required that the circuit be built using real components and that measurements be made with actual instruments for the purposes of assessment and moderation.

Downloaded from hlayiso.com Electrical Technology 8 DBE/PAT 2017 NSC – Grade 11 The correct procedure to complete simulations is outlined below for teachers and school management teams who are responsible for the implementation of the PAT in Electrical Technology. Step 1: The teacher will choose simulations from the examples provided. Step 2: Compile a list of the components needed for every simulation. Add extra components as these items are very small and you will need extras because they are lost/damaged very easily when learners work with them. Step 3: Contact three different electronic component suppliers for comparative quotations. Step 4: Submit the quotations to the SMT for approval and procurement of the items. Step 5: Store the components. Collate items for each simulation, thus making it easier to distribute and use during practical sessions. Ensure that the various component values do not get mixed up, as this will lead to components being used incorrectly. This could damage the component and, in extreme cases, the equipment used. Step 6: Copy the relevant simulations and hand them out to learners at the start of the term. Teachers are allowed to adjust circuits and component values to suit their environment/resource availability. Teachers are required to develop a set of model answers in the teacher's portfolio. Moderators will use the teacher's model answers and artefact when moderating. 2.7 Projects The projects are construction projects which teachers may choose for their learners. These projects are based on proven circuits provided by schools and subject advisors. The projects are based on working prototypes and require careful construction in order for them to operate correctly. Projects vary in cost and teachers must ensure that the projects chosen fall within the scope of the school's budget. Once the teacher has decided on a circuit, he/she must construct the prototype. Thereafter copies of the circuit provided may be made and distributed to learners. Learners MUST redraw these circuits in their portfolios correctly. The description of the operation of the circuits is NOT complete. Learners are required to interrogate the function of the components in the circuit provided. They should elaborate on the purpose of components in the circuit. It is recommended that learners investigate similar circuits available on the Internet and in the school library/workshop reference books. Copyright reserved Please turn over
