(b) Candidates are likely to discuss one of the disadvantages from Source 2 as listed; however, the assessment is focussed upon their reasoning/justification and therefore alternative disadvantages should be credited.

0457/32 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED March 2017 © UCLES 2017 Page 10 of 17 Question Answer Marks Notes 3(a) Indicative content A value judgement is a view or belief about what is important or ethical/moral. The following are value judgements given in Nathalia’s letter to Meena: • “I would have to share with my sister. This isn’t fair is it?” • “It seems only right that she should now benefit in some way” Level 3 (3 marks) Strong response The response demonstrates clear understanding of value judgements and applies this accurately to a correct example identified from the Source. Level 2 (2 marks) Reasonable response The response demonstrates some understanding of value judgements and attempts to apply this to a correct example identified from the Source. The explanation lacks some clarity and accuracy. Level 1 (1 mark) Basic response The candidate identifies a value judgement from the source correctly but does not explain the nature of the part; the response demonstrates very little or no understanding. Level 0 (0 marks) No relevant response or creditworthy material. 3 Further Guidance a) If the example is incorrect the candidate must score 0 even if the reasoning suggests some understanding of the nature of value judgements.

0457/32 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED March 2017 © UCLES 2017 Page 12 of 17 Question Answer Marks Notes 3(c) Indicative content Candidates are expected to evaluate the reasoning in the response. They should make a supported judgement with some explanation about how good the reasoning is. Candidates may consider the following types of issue: • quality of the argument – clarity – tone – emotive; exaggerated; precise – language – balance • quality of the evidence – relevance – sufficiency – sample – source – media; radio – date – how recent – factual, opinion, value, anecdote – testimony – from experience and expert • knowledge claims • ability to see • sources of bias – gender – political – personal values – experience • likelihood of solutions working and consequences of their ideas • acceptability of their values to others – how likely other people are to agree with their perspective/view 12

Mark scheme, page 13

0457/32 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED March 2017 © UCLES 2017 Page 13 of 17 Question Answer Marks Notes Level 5 (11–12 marks) Very good response Clear, credible and well supported points about how well Meena responds to Nathalia’s letter. Coherent, structured evaluation of the response with clear reference to both letters. The response contains three (or more) developed evaluative points, and may include some undeveloped points. Level 4 (8–10 marks) Strong response Clear, supported points about how well Meena responds to Nathalia’s letter. Evaluation of the response, with reference to both letters. The response contains two (or more) developed evaluative points and may include some undeveloped points.

Level 3 (5–7 marks) Reasonable response Reasonable points about how well Meena responds to Nathalia’s letter. Some evaluation of the response, with an attempt use both letters. Judgements and evaluative points are partially supported or asserted. One (or more) developed evaluative points, possibly with some undeveloped points; three (or more) undeveloped points may be sufficient to enter this band at the lower level. Level 2 (3–4 marks) Basic response Basic points about how well Meena responds to Nathalia’s letter. There may be reference to only Meena’s response, with little attempt to consider Nathalia’s letter. Judgements and evaluative points are partially supported and lack clarity/relevance at times. The response contains two (or more) undeveloped points.

Answers at this level may repeat source material with little understanding or simply agree/disagree with the arguments presented. Level 0 (0 marks) No relevant or creditworthy material

Mark scheme, page 15

0457/32 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED March 2017 © UCLES 2017 Page 15 of 17 Question Answer Marks Notes 4 Target Assessment Objective: evaluate sources, claims and the effectiveness of arguments; develop a line of reasoning to support a judgement. Indicative content Candidates are expected to argue using reasons and evidence to justify their opinion and judgement about the issue i.e. where responsibility should lie for caring for the elderly. Candidates are expected to use and develop the material found in the sources, but should go beyond simply repeating or recycling without adaptation. Other material may be introduced but it is not necessary to gain full marks. Candidates are likely to consider the following arguments: • reference to scale of impact on individual/group/governmental behaviour/actions • how long it takes to make a difference • the effects of cultural differences and beliefs • barriers to change • the power of collective action • the difficulties of changing individual behaviour • the influence of individuals and groups acting locally • the role of vested interests and power differences • potential conflict • difficulties in coordinating globally and across different countries with independence • cost and access to resources to implement change • governmental responses and action • other reasonable response 18

Different arguments and perspectives are clearly considered. The response contains a wide range of clearly reasoned points and/or evidence to support the views expressed, with three (or more) developed points, and some undeveloped points.

The response contains a range of reasoned points and/or evidence to support the views expressed, with two (or more) developed points, and some undeveloped points. A judgement is reached. Level 3 (8–11 marks) Reasonable response Some supported reasoning about the issue. Different arguments and perspectives are included. The response contains some points and/or evidence to support the views expressed, with one (or more) developed point(s), and some undeveloped points. An attempt is made to give an overall judgement.

0457/32 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED March 2017 © UCLES 2017 Page 17 of 17 Question Answer Marks Notes Level 2 (4–7 marks) Basic response Basic reasoning about the issue. Different arguments are included; perspectives, if present, are unclear. The response relies on assertion rather than evidence but contains some undeveloped points. A basic judgement may be attempted. Level 1 (1–3 marks) Limited response Limited and unsupported reasoning about the topic in general. Different arguments may be included. Level 0 (0 marks) No relevant or creditworthy material
