0471/11 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2018 © UCLES 2018 Page 2 of 12 Generic Marking Principles These general marking principles must be applied by all examiners when marking candidate answers. They should be applied alongside the specific content of the mark scheme or generic level descriptors for a question. Each question paper and mark scheme will also comply with these marking principles. GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 1: Marks must be awarded in line with: • the specific content of the mark scheme or the generic level descriptors for the question • the specific skills defined in the mark scheme or in the generic level descriptors for the question • the standard of response required by a candidate as exemplified by the standardisation scripts. GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 2: Marks awarded are always whole marks (not half marks, or other fractions). GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 3: Marks must be awarded positively: • marks are awarded for correct/valid answers, as defined in the mark scheme. However, credit is given for valid answers which go beyond the scope of the syllabus and mark scheme, referring to your Team Leader as appropriate • marks are awarded when candidates clearly demonstrate what they know and can do • marks are not deducted for errors • marks are not deducted for omissions • answers should only be judged on the quality of spelling, punctuation and grammar when these features are specifically assessed by the question as indicated by the mark scheme. The meaning, however, should be unambiguous. GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 4: Rules must be applied consistently e.g. in situations where candidates have not followed instructions or in the application of generic level descriptors. GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 5: Marks should be awarded using the full range of marks defined in the mark scheme for the question (however; the use of the full mark range may be limited according to the quality of the candidate responses seen). GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 6: Marks awarded are based solely on the requirements as defined in the mark scheme. Marks should not be awarded with grade thresholds or grade descriptors in mind.

0471/11 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2018 © UCLES 2018 Page 4 of 12 Question Answer Marks 1(e) Discuss the possible positive social and cultural impacts associated with selling traditional arts and crafts as souvenirs. Indicative content: • Preservation of crafts – skills of making souvenirs • Increased cultural understanding – educate as produce • Cultural pride • Renaissance of arts/crafts Context must be social and cultural Level 1 (1–2 marks) will identify up to two positive social/cultural impacts providing some detail within the context but will be mainly descriptive Level 2 (3–4 marks) can be awarded for an explanation clearly indicating how the positive social/cultural impact affect the local population/country/culture Level 3 (5–6 marks) can be awarded for discussion of the significance/importance of the positive social/cultural impact. Better answers will have a reasoned conclusion. Creating and selling souvenirs for tourists can result in traditional crafts and skills being preserved [L1] and being passed down from generation to generation [L1]. Not only does this preserve skills but it can increase the perceived value of the traditional skills/crafts within the community [L2] young people may remain within the community and produce these souvenirs therefore minimising changes in family structures [L3]. The local community can take pride in their arts and crafts [L1] often producing them in front of the tourists explaining the skills and traditions behind the items [L2]. Therefore increasing cultural understanding and interaction between the tourist and the host population [L3]. In my opinion the most important positive impact is, when carefully managed, these arts and crafts are preserved for future generations [L3] contributing towards the survival of the culture. [L3] 6

Better answers will have a reasoned conclusion Japan has seen good growth in inbound tourism; this could be because of perceived risk of travelling in other countries due to terrorism, [L1] making Japan more appealing [L2]. Cultural tourism is a growth sector of the industry [L1] Japan has a unique culture that draws tourists from all over the world [L2]. I think that there isn’t one reason for the growth of tourism in Japan it is due to a number of factors. However, the increased interest in cultural tourism is one significant factor [L3]. 6
