ANSWERING STRATEGIES FOR PAPER 2
SECTION A ( Alternative test to practical, 20 marks )

In this section the students must answer 4 questions which carry 20 marks. All the items in
this section will deal with Science Process Skills. In order for the students to get the answers,
they need to acquire the skills listed below. The students can get the answer from the question
and the stimulus implicitly and explicitly.
Science Process Skills (list and definition)
Science Process Skills enable students to formulate their questions and find out the answer
systematically.
6
http://exammy.com/
Descriptions of science process skills are as follows:
Observing
Using the sense of hearing, touch, smell, taste and sight to collect information about an object
or a phenomenon.
Classifying
Using observation to group objects or events according to similarities or differences
Measuring and Using Numbers

Making quantitative observations using numbers and tools with standardised units. Measuring
makes observation more accurate.
Inferring
Using past experiences or previously collected data to draw conclusions and make
explanations of events.
Predicting
Stating the outcome of a future event based on prior knowledge gained through experiences of
collecting data
Communicating
Using words or graphic symbols such as tables, graphs, figures or models to describe an
action, object or event.
Interpreting Data
Giving rational explanations about an object, event or pattern derived from collected data.
Defining Operationally
Defining concepts by describing what must be done and what should be observed
Controlling Variables
Identifying the fixed variable, manipulated variable and responding variable in an
investigation. The manipulated variable is changed to observe its relationship with the
responding variable. At the same time, the fixed variable is kept constant
Hypothesising
Making a general statement about the relationship between a manipulated variable and a
responding variable in order to explain an event or observation. This statement can be tested
to determine its validity.
Experimenting
Planning and conducting activities to test a certain hypothesis. These activities include
collecting, analysing and interpreting data and making conclusions.

http://exammy.com/
Guide to answering question in Section A
1. Each question in section A is an alternative question to the real practical exam

2. Hence data are usually given and the candidate is asked to make an inference or
conclusion, or experiment results are given and the candidate is required to give an answer
about the process in conducting an investigation.
3. Among the matters raised in the question are :
a) Making qualitative and quantitative observations from the diagrams or through the
measurements
b) Drawing diagram, graphs, tables or charts according to data or information given.
c) Making predictions, hypotheses, inferences and conclusions based on the candidates
scientific knowledge
d) Identifying a variable that is kept constant, that is manipulated and responds
4. Your answer should be brief but accurate based on information given or obtained from
your framework
ANSWERING STRATEGIES FOR SCIENCE PROCESS SKILL QUESTIONS
A) Controlled Variable
Ways to find variables
1. From the sentence, find out the variables
Examples:
Steps:
a) Underline variables in the sentence

b) The underlined variables refer to manipulated variable and responding variable
c) Find out which variable that the change is fixed. This is the manipulated variable
d) The other one is responding variable.
2. From the table
Example 1:
Time/minute 0 2 4 6 8 10
Temperature/C 28 48 68 88 102 102
Steps:
a) Manipulated and responding variable given from the title of table are time and
temperature.
b) Time is manipulated variable because time are increase or changes.
c) Temperature is responding variable because changes of temperature
