Dear Teacher, The National State of Disaster due to the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in the disruption, of Education in South Africa, the loss of valuable teaching time and the disruption of the, school calendar., As a result of this, the DBE has created and released revised Annual Teaching Plans (ATPs), to assist schools and teachers in ensuring the 2021 school year is completed. The 2021, ATPs are based on the revised ATPs that were developed in 2020. It is important to note, that fundamental and core topics are retained in the 2021 ATPs. Some of the strategies that, have been used in the process of developing the 2021 DBE ATPs are:, , •, •, •, •, •, •, , reduction of content covered in certain topics, merging of topics, deleting topics, revising the assessment guidelines, reduction in teaching time for certain topics, resequencing of topics/concepts, , At Pearson South Africa, we believe that education is the key to every individual’s success., To ensure that despite the challenges, teachers and learners can meet all the necessary, learning outcomes for the year, we have created the Navigation Pack, a free resource to, support teachers and learners during this challenging time., The Navigation Pack aims to summarise and highlight the changes in the 2021 DBE ATP, and provide teachers and learners with worksheets that focus on impacted topics in the, curriculum., Due to resequencing of topics, the order of topics in the textbook that is currently used, in the classroom may not be aligned to the new sequence of topics in the ATP. Pearson, has included page numbers from one of our tried and tested series, Platinum, to guide, the teacher and learners as they navigate through the textbook, with the 2021 ATP. The, Navigation Pack has a set of assessments based on the Section 4 changes and the revised, assessment guidelines., , Introduction, , 5

Page 21 :
Business Studies Grade 12, , marks are allocated. For some questions, only 1 mark may be awarded. For other questions, 2, marks are awarded. However, the 2 marks may be awarded at the end of the statement/answer, or the 2 marks may be split. It is important that learners know how to identify when the two marks, are awarded at the end of the statement/answer or when the marks are split. The following tables, provide clarity on how marks are allocated., Single marks: Only 1 mark will be awarded for each fact when the following action verbs are, used. These answers will usually be short answers not requiring a full sentence., • Give, • Identify, • List, , • Name, • State, • Mention, , 2 Marks: Two marks will be awarded for the statement/answer when the following action verbs, are used., •, •, •, •, , Classify, Suggest, Advise, Propose, , •, •, •, •, , Define, Outline, Recommend, Motivate, , Split marking: For the following action verbs, the marks will be split. This means that the learners’, response should contain a fact and a clarifying statement. One mark will be awarded for the fact, and the second mark will be awarded for the clarifying statement. Learners who do not know how, to identify split marking often lose the second mark for the clarifying statement. This is why it is, important to teach learners these action verbs., •, •, •, •, •, •, •, , Describe, Explain, Distinguish, Discuss, Analyse, Elaborate, Showing impact, , •, •, •, •, •, •, , Apply a technique, Evaluate, Differentiate, Compare, Tabulate, Justify, , Tip: Teachers should insist that learners study these tables so that they know how to answer, questions effectively. Teachers should encourage learners to redraw these tables in their, notebooks and use them whenever they are answering activities/worksheets/assignments., Teachers should use these tables when setting assessments to ensure that action verbs are used, correctly and that marks are allocated correctly., , Marking grid for essay questions, The essay marking grid shows how marks are allocated for essay questions. The Learner’s Book, explains this marking grid on page 346 and the Teacher’s Guide explains the marking grid on, page 172. However, there have been a few changes in terms of how the ‘insight’ marks are, awarded since the Learner’s Book and Teacher’s Guide were published. Therefore, teachers must, make use of the following information when teaching learners essays and when marking them., , 20, , Business Studies Grade 12 Navigation Guide
