AO1 Record
Gbogbo ọrọ náà
Every great piece of IGCSE Art and Design begins in the sketchbook. AO1 is about recording: capturing what you observe, think and intend as your project evolves. The examiner is not looking for a neat final drawing - they are looking for evidence that you have genuinely looked at the world, gathered material relevant to your starting point, and kept a running record of your thinking. Sketchbooks that feel alive, messy and purposeful earn far more marks than clean, empty pages.
This note explains what 'recording' actually means in the context of this qualification, which methods carry the most marks, how to annotate your observations so they become evidence of thought, and what a strong AO1 response looks like from a marker's point of view.
