Both the content and structure of the paragraph must be taken into account when awarding a mark. The following steps must be used when assessing a response to a paragraph question:  Read the paragraph and place a bullet ( . ) at each point within the text where the candidate has used relevant evidence to address the question.  Re-read the paragraph to evaluate the extent to which the candidate has been able to use relevant evidence to write a paragraph.  At the end of the paragraph indicate the ticks (√) that the candidate has been awarded for the paragraph; as well as the level (1, 2, or 3) as indicated in the holistic rubric and a brief comment e.g. ___________ ˖ __________________________ ˖ ______________________ _________________ ˖ ____________________________ ˖ ______________ √√√√ Level 2 Used mostly relevant evidence to write a basic paragraph.  Count all the ticks for the source-based question and then write the mark on the right-hand bottom margin e.g. 32 50  Ensure that the total mark is transferred accurately to the front/back cover of the answer script. 2. ESSAY QUESTIONS 2.1 The essay questions require candidates to: Be able to structure their argument in a logical and coherent manner. They need to select, organise and connect the relevant information so that they are able to present a reasonable sequence of facts or an effective argument to answer the question posed. It is essential that an essay has an introduction, a coherent and balanced body of evidence and a conclusion. 2.2 Marking of essay questions  Markers must be aware that the content of the answer will be guided by the textbooks in use at the particular centre.  Candidates may have any other relevant introduction and/or conclusion than those included in a specific essay marking guideline for a specific essay.  When assessing open-ended source-based questions, learners should be credited for any other relevant answers.

Downloaded from hlayiso.com 4 HISTORY P1 (EC/JUNE 2018) 2.3 Global assessment of the essay The essay will be assessed holistically (globally). This approach requires the teacher to score the overall product as a whole, without scoring the component parts separately. This approach encourages the learner to offer an individual opinion by using selected factual evidence to support an argument. The learner will not be required to simply regurgitate 'facts' in order to achieve a high mark. This approach discourages learners from preparing 'model' answers and reproducing them without taking into account the specific requirements of the question. Holistic marking of the essay credits learners' opinions supported by evidence. Holistic assessment, unlike content-based marking, does not penalise language inadequacies as the emphasis is on the following:  The construction of argument  The appropriate selection of factual evidence to support such argument  The learner's interpretation of the question 2.4 Assessment procedures of the essay 2.4.1 Keep the synopsis in mind when assessing the essay. 2.4.2 During the reading of the essay ticks need to be awarded for a relevant introduction (indicated by a bullet in the marking guideline/memorandum), each of the main points/aspects that is properly contextualised (also indicated by bullets in the marking guideline/memorandum) and a relevant conclusion (indicated by a bullet in the marking guideline/memorandum) e.g. in an answer where there are 5 main points there will be 7 ticks. 2.4.3 The following additional symbols can also be used:  Introduction, main aspects and conclusion not properly contextualised ^  Wrong statement _______________________________  Irrelevant statement | | |  Repetition R  Analysis A√  Interpretation 1√ Copyright reserved Please turn over

MAIN ASPECTS Candidates should include the following aspects in their essays: Introduction: Candidates should critically discuss Mao Zedong’s unsuccessful attempt to transform China into a modern, industrialised state, which could feed its growing population and, simultaneously, re-impose Maoist thought (the original Chinese revolution of 1949) by referring to the period 1958–1976. ELABORATION  Mao’s second Five Year Plan (Great Leap Forward) inspired by economic success of the First Five Year Plan, and the need to rid China of its economic dependence on the USSR  Establishment of communes in the countryside and the encouragement of small-scale industries in the countryside  Construction of large irrigation schemes and dams by labourers and peasants in order to improve agriculture  The Great Leap Forward proved a dismal failure  Coercion, terror and systematic violence were the foundation of the Great Leap Forward; peasant industries lacked suitable expertise, therefore production of poor quality of goods  Failure of government to respond quickly and effectively to disastrous famine conditions (1959–1961)  Mao’s insistence on maintaining high grain export quotas in the face of clear evidence of poor crop output, harvest failure and weather conditions  Separation from USSR, and the fact that enormous amounts of investment produced only modest increases in production or none at all, whirled China into a total economic crisis  Mao now stepped down as State Chairperson of China in 1959, but retained his position as Chairperson of the Communist Party of China  Liu Shaoqi (the new Chairperson of China) and reformist, Deng Xiaoping (CPC General Secretary) took over the economy Copyright reserved Please turn over

Downloaded from hlayiso.com (EC/JUNE 2018) HISTORY P1 15  Mao used his time out of government to further his idea of ‘continuous revolution’ (Proletarian Cultural Revolution), bent on restoring his brand of Communism and his personal prestige within the Party  Therefore: re-imposition of Maoist thought as dominant ideology within CPC; purging it of capitalist and traditional elements, and regaining power Mao lost after failure of the Great Leap Forward  Spearheaded by the People’s Liberation Army (Red Guard), Chinese Youth, and Mao’s “Little Red Book”, as propaganda tool  Cultural Revolution proved a failure to effect his desired transformation of China  Political campaigns spreading to the military, urban workers, and the Communist Party leadership itself, resulted in widespread factional struggles in all walks of life  A personality cult grew to immense proportions by 1968 and army to a position of great power  Occurrence of a wide range of abuses: public humiliation, arbitrary imprisonment, torture, hard labour, sustained harassment, seizure of property and sometimes execution  Anti-communist historical relics, artefacts, art works, books and monuments were destroyed, while cultural and religious sites were ransacked  Schools and universities were forced to close – resulting in high levels of illiteracy and non-literacy  Social anarchy: Red Guards surpassed that of the army, local police authorities, and the law in general, as central officials lifted restraints on violent behaviour; between 1966 and 1968  Much of economic activity halted by 1968, because ‘revolution’, regardless of interpretation, being made China’s primary objective  Between 1966 and 1968, China was isolated internationally, having declared its enmity towards both the Soviet Union and the United States  Mao was, therefore, forced to issue fresh instructions to quell violence and to restore peace  The death of Mao, and arrest of the Gang of Four (1976), allowed pro- capitalist reformers, led by Deng Xiaoping, to dismantle Maoist policies associated with the Cultural Revolution.

Downloaded from hlayiso.com (EC/JUNE 2018) HISTORY P1 17 Economic transformation of the Congo and Tanzania Similarities:  Both countries relied heavily on agriculture and mineral extraction and neither countries were able to develop a credible manufacturing sector  Neither country saw a significant increase in the standard of living for the majority of its people  Both countries experienced economic crises and therefore had to rely on foreign aid/assistance Differences:  Mobutu Sese Seko initially nationalised industry with his policy of Zairianisation but when this failed he adopted a capitalist model; Julius Nyerere adopted an African socialist model (as outlined in the Arusha Declaration) which led to the nationalisation of businesses and land  Mobutu accepted aid, investment and financial support from the West (especially USA and France); Nyerere was initially opposed to acceptance of foreign aid (saw it as neo-colonialism)  Mobutu created a new class of elite supporters; Nyerere attempted to rid Tanzania of class divisions  Any other relevant answer Conclusion: Candidates should tie up their argument with a relevant conclusion.
