1(c)[3]
Main Annotations
Indicative content
Candidates may identify one of the following benefits:
gain skills
improve job prospects
better understanding of other cultures
gain more self confidence
learn a different language
improve links with other countries
positive life changing experience.
Candidates may give the following reasons, any of which could be used, to justify their choice:
degree of impact, e.g. gaining skills has further effects on lives
number of people affected, e.g. improving understanding helps relationships between many people across several countries
significance of the benefit, e.g. better job prospects helps a person to have a higher standard of living
link to wider changes, e.g. improving links with other countries helps to reduce conflict; or creates opportunities for trade
other reasonable response.
Further guidance – candidates are most likely to discuss benefits from Source 2 as listed above. However, the assessment is focused mainly upon their reasoning / justification and therefore other benefits should be credited. The following levels of response should be used to award marks.
Level 3 (3 marks) Good response
Clearly reasoned explanation explicitly linked to a benefit.
Level 2 (2 marks) Reasonable response
Some explanation. The link between the explanation and a benefit may be implicit / unclear at times.
Level 1 (1 mark) Limited response
A benefit is identified. There may be some limited explanation.
Level 0 (0 marks)
No relevant response or creditworthy material.
1(d)[6]
Main Annotations
Indicative content
Candidates are likely to discuss the following reasons drawing upon the information in Sources 2 and 3:
Experience gained from moving to a different country can help to improve the economy.
Helps to improve job prospects.
International travel can improve links with other countries.
If people who move to a different country do not come back, the country loses a valuable resource and money will have been wasted on their education.
Young people may lose interest in their own culture.
Other reasonable response.
The following levels of response should be used to award marks:
Level 3 (5–6 marks) Good response
Clearly reasoned, credible and structured explanation of importance; usually two (or more) developed arguments clearly linked to the issue; or three (or more) undeveloped reasons. The national dimension is explicit.
Level 2 (3–4 marks) Reasonable response
Some reasoned explanation of importance; there may be some lack of clarity and the answer may be difficult to follow at times; usually one (or more) developed argument(s) with some link to the issue, but may be implicit at times; or two (or more) undeveloped reasons. The national dimension is implicit at times.
Level 1 (1–2 marks) Limited response
Limited reasoning and explanation; the response is likely to contain only simple, undeveloped and asserted points. Arguments are partial, generalised and lack clarity. The national dimension is not apparent.
Level 0 (0 marks)
No relevant response or creditworthy material.
