電卓の規定

A scientific or graphical calculator that meets JCQ regulations may be used (some GCSE Mathematics and Science papers are non-calculator). Graphical calculators must be set to exam mode; you must clear any stored programs, notes or data before the exam, and the calculator must not be able to retrieve stored text or formulae.

  • AO1: Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of scientific ideas, processes, techniques and procedures (35%)
  • AO2: Apply knowledge and understanding of scientific ideas, processes, techniques and procedures (35%)
  • AO3: Analyse, interpret and evaluate scientific information, ideas and evidence (30%)

電卓プログラム

Graph: zeros, intersections & turning points

Graphical calculator / GDC (exam mode)

目的: Plot a function to read its roots (zeros), points of intersection, and maxima/minima.

使う場面: Checking solutions, sketching, or solving where an analytic method is hard.

手順
Graph the function(s) and use the built-in zero, intersect and maximum/minimum tools.

試験での注意: Allowed under JCQ rules, but you must still show your method — an unsupported calculator answer earns no method marks. Clear all stored programs, notes and data (graphical calculators in exam mode) before the exam.

Numerical equation solver

Graphical calculator / GDC (exam mode)

目的: Solve an equation or find a variable numerically when an algebraic route is long or implicit.

使う場面: Iterative or implicit equations, or to confirm an algebraic solution.

手順
Use the equation/zero solver, entering the equation and a sensible starting estimate.

試験での注意: Allowed under JCQ rules, but you must still show your method — an unsupported calculator answer earns no method marks. Clear all stored programs, notes and data (graphical calculators in exam mode) before the exam.

Numerical integration & differentiation

Graphical calculator / GDC (exam mode)

目的: Evaluate a definite integral \(\int_a^b f(x)\,dx\) or a gradient \(f'(x)\) at a point.

使う場面: Checking calculus answers, or where only a numerical value is needed.

手順
Use the GDC's numeric integral / derivative function with the limits or the point.

試験での注意: Allowed under JCQ rules, but you must still show your method — an unsupported calculator answer earns no method marks. Clear all stored programs, notes and data (graphical calculators in exam mode) before the exam.

Statistics & probability distributions

Graphical calculator / GDC (exam mode)

目的: 1-var/2-var statistics, linear regression, and cumulative binomial / normal / Poisson probabilities without tables.

使う場面: Statistics questions and hypothesis tests.

手順
Enter data in the statistics editor, or use the distribution menu (binomial cdf, normal cdf, …).

試験での注意: Allowed under JCQ rules, but you must still show your method — an unsupported calculator answer earns no method marks. Clear all stored programs, notes and data (graphical calculators in exam mode) before the exam.

よくあるミス

  1. 1high影響する配点: 3Planning and conducting research

    Failing to explicitly link the proposed self-report or laboratory research design in Paper 1 Q17 to personal classroom practical activities.

    回避方法: Incorporate explicit references to your own practical logbook experience for each required design decision, detailing how your classroom experiences informed your choice.
  2. 2medium影響する配点: 6Areas, perspectives and debates

    Providing a one-sided argument in Paper 2 debate essays (such as discussing only the negative impacts of socially sensitive research).

    回避方法: Ensure balanced coverage by providing at least three distinct points of comparison or evaluation covering both strengths/similarities and weaknesses/differences.
  3. 3high影響する配点: 2Data recording, analysis and presentation

    Ranking raw scores directly instead of calculating differences and ranking the absolute differences when computing a Wilcoxon T-value.

    回避方法: Calculate the difference (Condition A - Condition B) for each participant first, discard zero differences, and then assign ranks from lowest to highest based on the absolute differences (ignoring the signs).
  4. 4high影響する配点: 2Data recording, analysis and presentation

    Drawing a bar chart that is missing critical elements of contextualisation (e.g., omitting 'mean' in the title or failing to label axes with precise variables like motorists or cuteness scale units).

    回避方法: Write a descriptive, contextualised title specifying it displays the 'mean' values, and completely label both the x-axis and the y-axis including scale ranges (e.g. 1-20).
  5. 5medium影響する配点: 3Research methods and techniques

    Formulating alternative hypotheses that fail to fully operationalise both the Independent Variable (IV) and Dependent Variable (DV), or failing to include both levels of the IV in a null hypothesis.

    回避方法: Explicitly state both conditions of the IV and operationalise the DV numerically (e.g. 'ratings of cuteness on a scale of 1-20' or 'listening to prosocial lyrics vs. neutral music').
  6. 6high影響する配点: 2Core Studies

    Providing generic, dictionary-style textbook definitions of terms (such as reliability, controls, or reductionism) without applying them to the specific context of the core studies.

    回避方法: Always tie the definition of the methodological term directly to specific examples from the studies (e.g. linking standardisation in Bandura to the exact size of the Bobo doll or standard timing).
  7. 7medium影響する配点: 8Practical activities

    Evaluating practical suggestions in Paper 2, Section C without explicitly identifying and referencing relevant psychological issues and debates.

    回避方法: Clearly name and structure your evaluation around OCR AS Level debates like Nature/Nurture, Freewill/Determinism, or Usefulness, rather than writing generic feedback.
