Question 200

The answer that came easily

“Getting something right first time can teach as much as getting it wrong.”

Write an article for a teenage magazine giving your views on this statement.

You could include:

  • what an error might reveal that a successful attempt might not
  • how reflection or feedback can help learning after either outcome
  • why a correct answer can still be a valuable learning experience.

You may also use your own ideas.

Your response will be assessed for communication and organisation, and for vocabulary, sentence structures, spelling and punctuation. The total includes 16 marks for vocabulary, sentence structures, spelling and punctuation.
