Gr 12 PAT Phase 1

I have to help my learners move with their PAT! They need a plan if they are going to do something. They must know what they want to achieve else they will just go round in circles. The planning in phase 1 is so important.
So today I have calm music playing and the learners are calmly searching for statistical data to show that there is a problem in the focus area of their PAT.
They are struggling to create good questions. It is funny to think any person can just go and …
  • search – search for what?
  • collect data – on what?
  • analyse data – on what?
  • analyse data – for what?
  • make graphs – for what?
Hopefully after this calm web/music time they will have statistics to prove there is a problem and improve their questions, and have their phase 1 ready to hand in to me next week.

What can I say? I am struggling to get them moving along as well. Between teaching lookups and ifs, there is a mad dash! Hopefully some light at the tunnel by next week. I don't feel so alone anymore!

So sorry, realized no intro. I am Radha Mannie, teacher at Ridge Park College in Durban, KZN. This site is my guardian angel. I only survived last year because of Pam Miller and my subject advisor. I check your blog everday. Thanks
