Assessment

The student picks the subject focus based on their interests, and the end product may be a 'traditional' academic report (5,000 words) or it could be a completely different output such as an artifact – a film, a concert, a painting, a website – accompanied by a written report of at least 1,000 words. The process of planning, researching, recording and reviewing is deemed just as important as the result, so roughly half the marks available are awarded for the process and half the marks for the finished project.
