How is the coursework assessment in the current course different in SNAB from other A-level Biology courses?
SNAB AS Coursework In the Salters-Nuffield Advanced Biology AS course, students complete a visit or issue report. The written report may be a record of a visit to a site of biological interest, or a report of non-practical research into a biological topic. In both cases the student identifies a relevant question or problem. The report concentrates on the application of biology to find a solution. The report should be between 1000 and 1500 words. The report can be marked internally, or externally by Edexcel. Students complete the core practicals and other practical investigations during the course. Teachers verify that students have completed the core practical work to develop the practical biology skills identified in the specification. Knowledge of these techniques and skills may be assessed in questions on the written papers.SNAB A2 Coursework investigation Students devise and carry out an individual experimental investigation, and present a written report of their investigation.
