2 0400/02/M/J/16 © UCLES 2016 INFORMATION TO TEACHERS The controlled test can be scheduled at any time provided it is completed by 30 April. During the preparatory period, candidates are required to produce their supporting studies in response to one question. They must bring this work to the start of the controlled test and these supporting studies must remain with the controlled test work under secure conditions. Candidates cannot submit supporting studies after the start of the examination and they should not produce additional supporting studies during the controlled test. From the work produced during the preparatory period, candidates are expected to select and organise which pieces of their supporting studies they want to submit in order to support the controlled test. Any work that they do not wish to submit should be clearly labelled as ‘not to be submitted’ and this work should be retained under secure conditions until after the end of the Enquiries about Results period. For additional guidance, you should refer to A Guide to Administering Art and Design and the Cambridge Handbook. INSTRUCTIONS TO CANDIDATES You may seek initial guidance regarding the selection of question and appropriate choice of materials and processes at the start of the preparatory period from your teacher. You should research and investigate your ideas with first-hand studies of primary sources. What are first-hand studies? First-hand studies can be carried out in a variety of methods, either by sketching a building, drawing a horse or apple or by taking a photograph of it. It should be your record and it should be made or produced directly from the primary source. What is a primary source? A primary source is the actual item, object, building, person or so on. If the question asks you to produce a response to the starting point ‘Dried flowers or seed pods ’, and you look in a book or use an internet search engine, then this is secondary source material. If you gather together some actual dried flowers and real seed pods and analyse them directly, this is classed as first-hand studies of primary source material. Your supporting studies and your controlled test work will be assessed out of a total of 100 marks. During the preparatory period, you should prepare for the controlled test by researching and developing your ideas, attempting alternative outcomes and producing supporting studies to enable you to produce a response to one of the questions from this paper. You are reminded that the supporting studies and the controlled test are marked together against all the assessment objectives. Assessment Objective AO1 is concerned with gathering, recording, research and investigation, and Assessment Objective AO2 is concerned with exploration and development of ideas. You should take this into account when preparing your supporting studies. You must take these supporting studies with you on the first day of the examination. Your supporting studies will then remain, with your controlled test work, at the Centre while you complete the test. At the end of the controlled test, you will be expected to edit your supporting studies and present them on no more than two sheets of A2 paper. You may mount work on both sides if you wish (four sides in total).
