2. Assessment There will be practice assessment opportunities for the three external standards during the year; one at the end of each topic, the other during the first week of term 4. The external standards require you to describe, explain or interpret, and discuss chemistry ideas. Achieved (describe) requires you to identify, name, draw, give characteristics of, or an account of, carry out simple calculations. Merit (Explain or Interpret) requires you to provide reasons for how and why something occurs and may include related calculations. Excellence (Discuss) requires you to show understanding as to how or why something occurs by linking chemistry ideas/principles. It typically involves justifying, relating, evaluating, comparing and contrasting, analysing, interpreting, and calculating. The chemistry course has two internal achievement standards: AS 3.2 (91388) Demonstrate understanding of spectroscopic data in Chemistry AS 3.7 (91393) Demonstrate understanding of oxidationreduction processes For each internal standard, there will be one assessment opportunity. All work submitted for internal assessment must be your own work. The NCEA booklet gives guidance.
