CORE English as a Second Language (Short Course) - 9285 OxfordAQA

Writing: Communicate In Writing

Aperçu

Paper 1 is the only component where you are marked on your English twice. Every one of its three tasks carries a separate mark for communicating content and a separate mark for language, and across the paper those come to 20 marks and 22 marks. Two candidates can write the same ideas and finish twenty marks apart. Two others can write flawless English and finish twenty marks apart the other way, because neither covered the bullet points.

What makes this paper learnable is that the specification names, task by task and mark by mark, exactly what each half is looking at. This lesson prints all of it, works through the three tasks with their word ranges and mark splits, shows one answer written three times at three different standards with the criteria used to name what changed, and runs a repair pass on the ten errors that most often hold a language mark down.

Objectifs

  1. In order to meet the requirements of AO2, students are expected to:
  2. communicate effectively in writing for a variety of purposes across a range of specified contexts
  3. write short texts, using simple sentences and familiar language accurately to convey meaning and exchange information
  4. produce clear and coherent text of extended length to present facts and express ideas and opinions appropriately for different purposes and in different settings
  5. make accurate use of a variety of vocabulary and grammatical structures, including some more complex forms, to describe and narrate with reference to past, present and future events
  6. manipulate the language, using and adapting a variety of structures and vocabulary with increasing accuracy and fluency for new purposes, including using appropriate style and register
  7. make independent, creative and more complex use of the language to explain, inform, describe, argue or persuade.

Note de cours

Paper 1 is a written exam of 1 hour carrying 42 marks, which is 35 per cent of the qualification. There are three questions. They reflect an increasing level of challenge, the specified length of response for each question stays the same from series to series, and all three link with the themes named in the subject content. No dictionary is permitted.
