Downloaded from hlayiso.com Life Sciences/P1 2 DBE/2013 NSC – Grade 11 Exemplar – Memorandum PRINCIPLES RELATED TO MARKING LIFE SCIENCES 2013 1. If more information is given than marks allocated Stop marking when maximum marks are reached, draw a wavy line and write 'max' in the right-hand margin. 2. If, for example, three reasons are required and five are given Mark the first three, irrespective of whether all or some are correct/incorrect. 3. If a whole process is given when only part of it is required Read all and credit relevant parts. 4. If comparisons are required and descriptions are given Accept if differences/similarities are clear. 5. If tabulation is required but paragraphs are given Candidates will lose marks for not tabulating. 6. If descriptions are required but diagrams with annotations are given Candidates will lose marks. 7. If flow charts are given instead of descriptions Candidates will lose marks. 8. If the sequence is muddled and links do not make sense Where the sequence and links are correct, credit. Where the sequence and links are incorrect, do not credit. If sequence and links becomes correct again, resume credit. 9. Non-recognised abbreviations Accept if first defined in answer. If not defined, do not credit the unrecognised abbreviation, but credit the rest of the answer if correct. 10. Wrong numbering If answer fits into the correct sequence of questions but the wrong number is given, it is acceptable. 11. If language used changes the intended meaning Do not accept. 12. Spelling errors If recognisable, accept, provided it does not mean something else in Life Sciences or if it is out of context. 13. If common names are given in terminology Accept if correct according to curriculum 14. If only a letter is required and only a name is given (and vice versa) No credit.

If units are not given in measurements Memorandum will allocate marks for units separately, except where it is already given in the question. 16. Be sensitive to the sense of an answer, which may be stated in a different way. 17. Caption Credit will be given for captions of all illustrations (diagrams, graphs, tables, etc.) except where it is already given in the question. 18. Code-switching/mixing of official languages (terms and concepts) A single word or two that appears in his/her answers in any official language other than the learners' assessment language should be credited, if it is correct. A marker that is proficient in the relevant official language should be consulted. This applies to all official languages. Copyright reserved Please turn over
