Other Work Samples for:
Casey has demonstrated a high level of competence in planning and conducting a scientific investigation. A question to be tested has been identified and the test results have been predicted. An appropriate range of equipment has been selected and safely used. Data has been accurately collected and recorded using a table but no quantities have been listed. The results have been analysed and conclusions have been drawn from these. This work sample demonstrates characteristics of work typically produced by a student performing at grade B standard at the end of Stage 2.
