About Assessment and Examinations

School-Based Assessment (SBA) and Practical
Assessment Tasks (PATs)
• The school-based assessment tasks and PATs prepare you for your final examinations.
It is important to obtain a very good mark for your PAT and school-based assessment (SBA).
• Complete all your SBA tasks diligently. Make sure that you have handed in all your tasks
by the stipulated dates. This will give you a good chance of passing and doing well.
Remember if you do not hand in all of the PAT or SBA tasks you will receive a incomplete result. You will not
matriculate with your friends.
• The PATs are very important. By obtaining good marks for your PATs, you have already earned marks towards
your final mark for grade 12. Put real effort into every phase of the PAT. Ensure that your PAT implementation

on what is most important.
• Associate new information with what you already know.
• Visualise. Try to create “stories” or “movies” in your
mind.
• Recite. Use your own words. Explain the information
to a friend/family member. Go back and check for
accuracy and additional details.

ABOUT MEMORISING

Memorising skills can be learned.

There are many different skills you can learn to help you
remember information. Here are some examples:
• Mind maps
• Cartoons, pictures, labelling
• Rhymes and jingles – use words that rhyme to help you
remember important facts
• Loci strategy - Association with the place. Helps you
remember a list of items
• Word association, key words, flash cards
• Creating acronyms: e.g. RICE stands for rest, ice,
compression and e levation (what to do when somebody
has a sprained ankle)
• Grouping or categorising – organise the information into
logical clusters
Memory – Use it or lose it!
Memory strategies require practice and discipline.

 Memory Tip 
Pay attention and listen carefully in class.
• Make sure you understand the content and concepts. If not, ask your teacher.

Memory Tip 
Make effective notes.
• In order for information to be stored in long-term memory, it first
needs to pass through your short-term or working memory. This stage
of memory is limited in the amount of information it can retain.
Information you receive in class must be written down or you will
forget it.
• When revising from your textbooks, seek out the important
information and write it down. Organise it logically. Reduce it to
key terms or a form that is easy to remember.

Memory Tip 
Remember these three Rs:
• Repeat, Repeat, Repeat

Memory Tip 
Use mnemonics.
• Mnemonics are devices, using arbitrary, easy-to-remember associations, to help you remember information.
Examples:
• sohcahtoa (used in trigonometry to memorize important information about the sine, cosine, and tangent)
• roygbiv (the colours of the rainbow in their correct order – red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet)

Memory Tip 
Generate examples.
• A very effective way of checking your own understanding is
to generate examples of related concepts, situations,
relationships, events or case studies. If you cannot do this,
it is likely that you do not fully understand this aspect of
the syllabus. Ask your teacher for help.

Memory Tip 
Use visual imagery.
• Visualisation of a concept, situation, relationship or sequence
of events can be a very powerful way to learn. Create stories or
movies in your mind, or make your own drawings, stick figures
or cartoons.

Memory Tip 
Make associations.
• Make connections between the new information and something familiar to you.

7
 Memory Tip 
Use rehearsal strategies.
• Practise retrieving information by reciting key ideas, predicting
questions, practising problem-solving and testing yourself by
using previous exam papers.

Applying memory
Once you have memorised information, rather than just
restating that information, you need to be able to use it.
You should do the following:
• Analyse the information.
• Identify exactly what the examination question is
asking for.
• Decide what information is required by the question.
• In some cases, apply the information in a context.
• In some cases, develop a well-reasoned argument.
• Present information logically and coherently.

Making the right choices for living the good life
Making the right choices will help you to look good and feel good. Making healthy choices is also important to help
prevent diseases.

Tips for living the good life

1. You are what you eat … see the contents Salads or vegetables

• Protein foods build strong muscles. Keep meat you eat lean.
Legumes (lentils, peas, beans) are a great source of powerful
proteins too!
• High fibre starchy foods and grains keep you full for longer and
help to fight fat!

2. Limit “sometimes” foods … and you will look good and feel good
• “Sometimes” foods = junk foods or treats
• Too many of these are high in fat, salt and/or sugars. They can make you overweight, feel sluggish and increase
your chance of developing lifestyle diseases, so keep these to a minimum.
• Fight the fats! Eat less fat, fried and oily foods.
• Shake your salt habit! Use salt sparingly: watch out for hidden salt in snacks (e.g. chips) and salty foods
(e.g. polony, viennas and takeaways). We get enough salt in our diet so there is no need to add salt at the table.
• Tame your sweet tooth! Eat less sugar and sweet foods
(e.g. sweet fizzy drinks, sweets, cakes, doughnuts).
• Pack a healthy lunch box or buy a healthy sandwich
rather than buying junk food/takeaways which are

 BURSARIES AND LOANS

The cost of studying at university or college is high, and many people think that you must have your own money to be
able to do so. But, that’s not so.
There are many sources of bursaries and loans. Assistance may be in the form of a loan or bursary. Bursaries are
available for specific fields of study – teaching, accounting and actuarial science, social work, and various scarce skills
study fields (e.g. IT, engineering, etc.). Many bursaries for the National Certificate (Vocational) courses are available at
TVET Colleges.
You may also apply for a loan which is repayable when you start working. Many financial institutions (Banks) offer
study loans for which repayment only begins when the applicant starts working. Many students in South Africa fund
their studies through a National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS)-administered loan. A NSFAS loan doesn’t
require a credit check on you or your parents. Repayment is easy, and the interest rate is low. Plus, part of the loan will
not be repayable if you do well in your studies. The NSFAS contact details are tel 021-7633232, e-mail [email protected].

Some Tips when Applying for a Bursary

• The closing date for applying for any bursary or scholarship is very
important.
Applications received after the closing date will not be considered.
• Apply for a bursary when you are in grade 12 so that you can be sponsored
for the next academic year of study at a tertiary institution, not after
passing matric.
• Applying for a bursary doesn’t guarantee that you will get it, so always
apply to as many companies as possible to increase your chances.
• Getting a bursary doesn’t automatically give you a tertiary admission; you
have to apply for tertiary admission.
• After receiving your Grade 12 results, a certified copy must be sent to the
company to enable you to get a Bursary Confirmation Letter to register at
their approved institution.
• The company that is offering a bursary is investing in you; you might be
required to work for them after completing your studies for a certain
period of time, but if you fail your tertiary studies you may lose the bursary.

Here are the names of some of many organisations that offer bursaries
