COMMAND WORDS - write better coursework

COMMAND WORDS - write better coursework

(0)
This is a set of resources that I put together for my Year 12 BTEC National Health and Social Care students to help improve the quality of their writing. The resource lists the type of command words that they will come across for Pass, Merit and Distinction coursework tasks, giving sentence starters and example extracts of each type of writing, using the Unit 5 case studies, which they should be familiar with (and a copy of which are also attached in case your students haven’t seen them yet). There is also a presentation that can be used either before or after going through the printed resource. To be honest, I can’t take full credit for that though, because I adapted it from something I found! In addition, there’s a document (worksheets) called ‘Chains of analysis’, to help students understand better how to produce analytical and evaluative writing for the Merit and Distinction tasks. The printout will be useful to file in their coursework folders for repeated reference for all coursework units. I have it as an electronic file in the students’ Google Classroom too. This is going to be one of your most useful resources throughout the course, but especially for Y12, as students transition to the demands of Level 3 coursework.

BTEC Tech Award Enterprise: Component 1 - Cover Sheets for coursework

(0)
Two versions of cover sheets for Component 1 coursework folders to provide students with the assessment criteria and to tick off work as it gets done. Both have explanatory text / guidance on the back to help the students understand - in one case, the bigger picture, and in the other case, the nature of the work they must produce for each task.

John Lewis - Customer Service (.swf file)

.swf file to add to your MLE, or display in class. Good for BTEC First for Unit 2 - can be developed for Distinction level work. At almost 7 mins it's a bit long, but it covers the main points. This resource is also supported by the 3 John Lewis worksheets I have uploaded - which go with the recently aired TV series. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/8558242.stm

Entrepreneurial skills: Component 1 - Tech Award Enterprise 2022

(0)
These resources are sufficient for one lesson about skills needed for successful entrepreneurship, and designed for teaching BTEC Tech Award 2022 – Component 1. The files include: • A presentation to cover the content, with planned, built-in questions that provide opportunities for questioning and discussion. • A worksheet linked to the presentation topic. oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo A note on this series of resources for BTEC Tech Award – Enterprise (2022): Firstly, thank you to everyone who purchased the resources I produced for the 2018 version of this spec – I could never have anticipated how popular they were going to be and I’m so happy I could help so many other teachers! I have now updated the resources to fit the changes in the 2022 spec. In my shop you will find resources for individual topic lessons for the 2022 spec, but you will also find packages of multiple lessons – these are not TES Bundles, but they are groups of presentations and worksheets that are almost identical to the individual lessons, and grouped according to the assessment criteria for the PSA. However, they are paired with further resources/templates for completing a practice PSA alongside learning the content. With this format, students will learn the content AND apply their learning as they go, in a manner whereby they can be guided and supported to feel confident about tackling their real PSA later on. The packages with the practice PSA tasks are much better value for money – unless all you’re looking for is a single topic lesson of course! I really hope you continue to find my resources useful. If so, please be kind and show your appreciation by leaving a review, so that it helps me - and helps others to find quality resources. : ) Thanks!
Mission Statements and Aims

Mission Statements and Aims

(0)
Mission Statements and Aims from 12 organisations with the intention that pupils conduct research to find the objectives set by each organisation that help meet the Aims and fulfil the Mission. (two on a page - cut to A5). Preceded by blanks in case you want to start by getting pupils to guess what Mission Statements and Aims are as a starter. Could print back-to-back (blank & non-blank) with different organisations on either side so that pupils can share correct answers with each other after initial activity. PLEASE NOTE: This document was created in 2010 and whilst it still has relevance as an activity, the 12 organisations have surely made some changes in their missions & aims??!! As this has been my most downloaded activity, with people downloading it in large numbers right up to summer 2019, I will make it one of my jobs to make an updated version before the end of 2019.

BTEC Tech Award Enterprise: Component 1 - stuff to help with D1 (internal & external factors ...)

(0)
These resources are designed for planning the D1 aspect of Component 1 courswork. Some of these make mention of businesses local to our school, but I have left these in so that you have the choice to ignore/delete those bits, or to edit them to reflect businesses closer to your school. There are three presentations and worksheets to go with them for the students to make notes. They are sufficient for 2 or 3 lessons.
BTEC Tech Award Enterprise: Component 3 - 12: Methods of payment

BTEC Tech Award Enterprise: Component 3 - 12: Methods of payment

(0)
A number of resources are included for this lesson on methods of payment, including a detailed presentation and associated worksheet for taking notes; also a second worksheet for students to explain where and when to use different payment methods. A test on methods of payment is included, even though it is designed for the start of next lesson. I am including also the test for last lesson’s topic (financial records) because reference is made to it at the start of the presentation, but it does not form part of this lesson and you can choose to discard it and delete the slide that refers to it in the presentation. Alternatively - get Component 3: Lesson 11 as well ; )
BTEC Tech Award Enterprise: Component 3 - 16: Statement of comprehensive income

BTEC Tech Award Enterprise: Component 3 - 16: Statement of comprehensive income

(1)
A selection of resources for a teaching Statement of Comprehensive Income. There’s a detailed presentation with an associated worksheet of 6 pages. In addition to this, there’s a homework booklet of 8 pages - this is designed for reducing and making into an A5 sized folded booklet - to save the trees : ) A separate 8 page document gives the answers to the homework booklet, so you can put it onto Google Classroom and the students can mark their own / each other’s work, or you can display it on the IWB - up to you. There is also a test for the previous lesson’s topic (Assets and Liabilities) and the answers, because the presentation makes reference to it, but you can either choose to discard it and delete the slides that refer to it on the presentation - or you could get the resources for Assets and Liabilities, by searching for them on this site ; ) The presentation makes reference to two YouTube video clips - one includes info about ratios, but the speaker notes indicates when it should be stopped so that you only show the relevant section for this lesson.

BTEC Tech Award Enterprise: Component 3 - 18, 19 & 20: Profitability, Liquidity, Ratios

(1)
This is a bundle of resources for three full lessons, plus a test for the end of Learning Aim B: 18 - Profitability & liquidity 19 - Profitability ratios 20 - Liquidity ratios For each of the three lessons there is a detailed lesson presentation, The start of the presentation for lesson 18 makes reference to a homework booklet from the previous lesson at the start, which I have left there just in case you also have the lesson 17 resources and have used the the previous lesson. If not, then delete the first two slides of the lesson 18 presentation (when you see it, you’ll understand what I mean!). Lesson 19 (Profitability ratios) has a two page worksheet to accompany the presentation and an additional task on a separate sheet that is based on a past exam question. Lesson 20 (Liquidity ratios) has a two page worksheet to accompany the presentation and refers to a great YouTube video clip (which has a long gap at the start, but bear with it, because once it gets going, it is very relevant and clearly conveyed.

BTEC points to UCAS tariff points (BTEC National Ex. Dip. Business)

(0)
This handy document explains to students how the grades and points achieved in their Business BTEC National Extended Diploma units are used to determine whether or not they fulfil the entry requirements for the degree course of their choice, or entry onto a degree apprenticeship. It’s a sheet I use in the run-up to exams, which I find especially useful to help those that have not settled, to wake up to reality - in the hope that they pull their finger out and do some revision before their exams. To be fair, it can be used at any time. You may want to give it out at the start of the course and/or to use it throughout to monitor progress to target - or introduce it a bit later, when the students have started to understand the structure of the course better. Anyhow - here it is. My students love it, and at the end of the course always say it was one of the most useful documents I gave them throughout the course - I’m sure yours will love it too! : )
