Yr12 - Writing your research plan

The PowerPoint below has some guidance on how to write your research plan. This does not have to be written up in the table provided in your assessment. You can write it up yourself in a Google Doc.

Make sure you describe;

  • You aim (what it is you are trying to find out!).
  • What information you will collect.
  • Why you want to collect it (how it will help you answer the aim).
  • How you will collect it.
  • Why you will collect it in this way.

Yr13 - Research - Have a look at what is expected!




Below is a link to examples of past student work produced by NZQA. They are all graded and have descriptions of why each sample of work was given a particular grade.

It is really worth looking at these so that you appreciate how much work is involved to gain each grade.
