 1. SOURCE-BASED QUESTIONS

     1.1 The following cognitive levels were used to develop source-based
         questions:

     COGNITIVE                                                      WEIGHTING OF

      LEVELS                                                         QUESTIONS
                       Extract evidence from sources.
                       Selection and organisation of relevant            30%
     LEVEL 1
                        information from sources.                         (15)
                       Define historical concepts/terms.
                       Interpretation of evidence from the
                        sources.
                                                                          40%
     LEVEL 2           Explain information gathered from the
                                                                          (20)
                        sources.
                       Analyse evidence from the sources.
                       Interpret and evaluate evidence from
                        sources.
                       Engage with sources to determine its
                        usefulness, reliability, bias and                 30%
     LEVEL 3
                        limitations.                                      (15)
                       Compare and contrast interpretations
                        and perspectives presented in sources
                        and draw independent conclusions.

     1.2 The information below indicates how source-based questions are
         assessed:

            In the marking of source-based questions credit needs to be given to
             any other valid and relevant viewpoints, arguments, evidence or
             examples.
            In the allocation of marks emphasis should be placed on how the
             requirements of the question have been addressed.
            In the marking guideline the requirements of the question (skills that
             need to be addressed) as well as the level of the question are
             indicated in italics.

     1.3 Assessment procedures for source-based questions

            Use a tick () for each correct answer
            Pay attention to the mark scheme e.g. (2 × 2) which translates to two
             reasons and is given two marks each (); (1 × 2) which translates
             to one reason and is given two marks ()
            If a question carries 4 marks then indicate by placing 4 ticks ()

           Paragraph question
           Paragraphs are to be assessed globally (holistically). 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.

     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), each of the main points/aspects that is properly
                     contextualised (also indicated by bullets in the marking guideline)
                     and a relevant conclusion (indicated by a bullet in the marking
                     guideline) 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                                I√

 2.   The matrix

      2.5.1 Use of the matrix in the marking of essays.

              In the marking of essays, the criteria as provided in the matrix should
              be used. When assessing the essay note both the content and
              presentation. At the point of intersection of the content and
              presentation based on the seven competency levels, a mark should be
              awarded.

              (a)      The first reading of essays will be to determine to what extent the
                       main aspects have been covered and to allocate the content
                       level (on the matrix).

                                                         C         LEVEL 4

              (b)      The second reading of essays will relate to the level (on the
                       matrix) of presentation.
                                                         C         LEVEL 4
                                                         P         LEVEL 5

              (c)      Allocate an overall mark with the use of the matrix.

                                                         C        LEVEL 4
                                                         P        LEVEL 5      }30 – 33

   on various forms of boycotts (Banning of sporting and cultural participation with
   South Africa (Gleneagles Agreement), British Commonwealth also introduced
   sanctions and disinvestments) (Multinational companies decision to withdraw
   their businesses)

[Plan and construct an original argument based on relevant evidence using analytical
and interpretative skills]

SYNOPSIS
Candidates must discuss how Gorbachev’s reforms and the downfall of communism in
the USSR paved the way for negotiations between the ANC and the apartheid
government after 1989.

MAIN ASPECTS

  Union paved the way for change in South Africa and provide relevant evidence.

    The ANC could not depend on the USSR to support it economically or with
     weapons anymore
    Gorbachev was also in favour of a peaceful transition of power in South Africa
    The National Party’s claim that it was acting as a ‘bulwark’ against communist
     expansion in southern Africa became unrealistic

     takeover was naïve

     peacefully and democratically
    It became clear that the National Party could no longer maintain white supremacy
     rule in South Africa anymore
    Influential National Party members started to realise that apartheid was not the

    The Battle of Cuito Cuanavale and the independence of Namibia
    There was no doubt that the continued repression of black South Africans would
     not ensure political stability
