 GUIDELINES FOR MARKING/RIGLYNE VIR NASIEN
 This section provides guidelines for the way in which marks will be allocated. The
 broad principles must be adhered to in the marking of Physical Sciences tests and
 examinations.
 Hierdie afdeling verskaf riglyne vir die manier waarop punte toegeken sal word.
 Die breë beginsels moet tydens die nasien van Fisiese Wetenskappe toetse en
 eksamens gevolg word.
 1.1    MARK ALLOCATION/PUNTE TOEKENNING
        1.1.1      Calculations/Berekeninge:
                   o    Marks will awarded for: correct formula, correct substitution, correct
                        answer with unit.
                   o    Punte sal toegeken word vir: korrekte formule, korrekte substitusie,
                        korrekte antwoord met eenheid.
                   o    No marks will be awarded if an incorrect or inappropriate formula is
                        used, even though there may be relevant symbols and applicable
                        substitutions.
                   o    Geen punte sal toegeken word waar ŉ verkeerde of ontoepaslike
                        formule gebruik word nie, selfs al is daar relevante simbole en
                        relevante substitusies.
        1.1.2      Explanations and interpretations/Verduidelikings en interpretasie:
                   Allocation of marks to questions requiring interpretation or explanation
                   e.g. AS 1.4, 2.2, 2.3, 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3, will differ and may include the use
                   of rubrics, checklists, memoranda, etc. In all such answers emphasis
                   must be placed on scientific concepts relating to the question.
                   Toekenning van punte by vrae wat interpretasie of verduideliking vereis
                   bv. AS 1.4, 2.2, 2.3, 3.1, 3.2 en 3.3, sal verskil en mag die gebruik van
                   rubrieke, kontrolelyste, memoranda, ens. insluit. By al hierdie antwoorde
                   moet die beklemtoning op die wetenskaplike konsepte, met betrekking tot
                   die vraag, val.

 1.2    FORMULAE AND SUBSTITUTIONS/FORMULES EN SUBSTITUSIE
        1.2.1      Mathematical manipulations and change of subjects of appropriate
                   formulae carry no marks, but if a candidate starts with the correct formula
                   and then changes the subject of the formula incorrectly, marks will be
                   awarded for the formula and the correct substitutions. The mark for the
                   incorrect numerical answer is forfeited.
                   Wiskundige manipulering en verandering van die voorwerp van
                   toepaslike formules dra geen punte nie, maar as ŉ kandidaat begin met
                   die korrekte formule en dan die voorwerp van die formule verkeerd
                   uitwerk, sal punte vir die formule en korrekte substitusie toegeken word.

        1.2.2      When an error is made during substitution into a correct formula, a
                   mark will be awarded for the correct formula and for the correct
                   substitutions, but no further marks will be given.
                   Wanneer ŉ fout gedurende substitusie in ŉ korrekte formule begaan
                   word, sal ŉ punt vir die korrekte formule en vir korrekte substitusie
                   toegeken word, maar geen verdere punte sal toegeken word nie.

        1.2.3      Marks are only awarded for a formula if a calculation had been
                   attempted, i.e. substitutions have been made or a numerical answer
                   given.
                   Punte sal slegs toegeken word vir ŉ formule as ŉ poging aangewend
                   was om ŉ berekening te doen d.w.s. substitusie was gedoen of ŉ
                   numeriese antwoord word verskaf.

      1.2.4   Marks can only be allocated for substitutions when values are substituted
              into formulae and not when listed before a calculation starts.
              Punte kan slegs toegeken word vir substitusies wanneer waardes in
              formules ingestel is en nie vir waardes wat voor ŉ berekening gelys is
              nie.

      1.2.5   All calculations, when not specified in the question, must be done to two
              decimal places.
              Alle berekenings, wanneer nie in die vraag gespesifiseer word nie, moet
              tot twee desimale plekke gedoen word.

1.3   UNITS/EENHEDE

      1.3.1   Candidates will only be penalised once for the repeated use of an
              incorrect unit within a question or sub-question.
              ŉ Kandidaat sal slegs een keer gepenaliseer word vir die herhaaldelike
              gebruik van ŉ verkeerde eenheid in ŉ vraag of subvraag.

      1.3.2   Units are only required in the final answer to a calculation.
              Eenhede word slegs in die finale antwoord tot ŉ vraag verlang.

      1.3.3   Marks are only awarded for an answer, and not for a unit per se.
              Candidates will therefore forfeit the mark allocated for the answer in each
              of the following situations:
                   correct answer + wrong unit
                   wrong answer + correct unit
                   correct answer + no unit.
              Punte word slegs vir ŉ antwoord en vir ŉ eenheid per se toegeken nie.
              Kandidate sal derhalwe die punt vir die antwoord in die volgende gevalle
              verbeur:
                   korrekte antwoord + verkeerde eenheid
                   verkeerde antwoord + korrekte eenheid
                   korrekte antwoord + geen eenheid

      1.3.4   SI units must be used except in certain cases, e.g. V.m-1 instead of N.C-1,
              and cm•s-1 or km.h-1 instead of m•s-1 where the question warrants this.
              (This instruction only applies to Paper 1).
              SI-eenhede moet gebruik word behalwe in sekere gevalle, bv. V.m-1 in
              plaas van of N.C-1, en cm•s-1 of km.h-1 in plaas van m•s-1 waar die vraag
              dit verlang. (Hierdie instruksie geld slegs by Vraestel 1).

1.4   POSTIVE MARKING/POSITIEWE NASIEN

      Positive marking regarding calculations will be followed in the following cases:
      Positiewe nasien met betrekking tot berekeninge sal in die volgende gevalle geld:

      1.4.1   Sub-question to sub-question: When a certain variable is calculated in
              one sub-question (e.g. 3.1) and needs to be substituted in another (3.2 or
              3.3), e.g. if the answer for 3.1 is incorrect and is substituted correctly in
              3.2 or 3.3, full marks are to be awarded for the subsequent sub-
              questions.
              Subvraag na subvraag: Wanneer ŉ sekere veranderlike in een
              subvraag (bv. 3.1) bereken word en dan in ŉ ander vervang moet word
              (3.2 of 3.3), bv. Indien die antwoord vir 3.1 verkeerd is en word korrek in
              3.2 of 3.3 vervang, word volpunte aan die daaropvolgende subvraag
              toegeken.

        1.4.2      A multi-step question in a sub-question: If the candidate has to
                   calculate, for example, current in the first step and gets it wrong
                   due to a substitution error, the mark for the substitution and the
                   final answer will be forfeited.
                   ŉ Vraag met veelvuldige stappe in ŉ subvraag: Indien ŉ
                   kandidaat byvoorbeeld, die aantal mol verkeerd bereken in ŉ
                   eerste stap as gevolg van ŉ substitusiefout, verloor die kandidaat
                   die punt vir die substitusie sowel as die finale antwoord.

        1.4.3      If a final answer to a calculation is correct, full marks will not
                   automatically be awarded. Markers will always ensure that the
                   correct/appropriate formula is used and that workings, including
                   substitutions, are correct.
                   Indien ŉ finale antwoord tot ŉ berekening korrek is, sal volpunte
                   nie outomaties toegeken word nie. Nasieners sal altyd verseker
                   dat die korrekte toepaslike formule gebruik word en dat
                   bewerkings, insluitende substitusies korrek is.

        1.4.4      Questions where a series of calculations have to be made (e.g. a
                   circuit diagram question) do not necessarily always have to follow
                   the same order. FULL MARKS will be awarded provided it is a
                   valid solution to the problem. However, any calculation that will not
                   bring the candidate closer to the answer than the original data, will
                   not count any marks.
                   Vrae waar ŉ reeks berekeninge gedoen moet word (bv. ŉ
                   stroombaan diagram vraag) hoef nie noodwendig altyd dieselfde
                   orde te volg nie. VOLPUNTE sal toegeken word mits dit ŉ geldige
                   oplossing tot die probleem is. Maar, enige berekening wat nie die
                   kandidaat nader aan die antwoord bring as die oorspronklike data,
                   sal geen punte tel nie.

        1.4.5      If one answer or calculation is required, but two given by the
                   candidate, only the first one will be marked, irrespective of which
                   one is correct. If two answers are required, only the first two will be
                   marked, etc.
                   Indien een antwoord of berekening verlang word, maar twee word
                   deur die kandidaat gegee, sal slegs die eerste een nagesien word,
                   ongeag watter een korrek is. Indien twee antwoorde verlang word,
                   sal slegs die eerste twee nagesien word, ens.

        1.4.6      Normally, if based on a conceptual mistake, an incorrect answer
                   cannot be correctly motivated. If the candidate is therefore
                   required to motivate in question 3.2 the answer given to question
                   3.1, and 3.1 is incorrect, no marks can be awarded for question
                   3.2. However, if the answer for e.g. 3.1 is based on a calculation,
                   the motivation for the incorrect answer for 3.2 could be considered.
                   Normaalweg, as dit gebaseer is op ŉ voorstellingsfout, kan ŉ
                   verkeerde antwoord nie korrek gemotiveer word nie. As die
                   kandidaat derhalwe gevra word met ŉ vraag in 3.2 om die
