Answering extended response questions
The NSW Board of Studies published the
Glossary of key words 
in 1999 to help provide a
common language and consistent meaning for student assessment
in Stage 6. The glossary refers to what students are expected
to be able to do as described in the HSC syllabus outcomes,
performance bands and examination questions.
To assist teachers and students to interpret the key words in relation to examination questions, a number of scaffolds have been developed that can be used as templates when creating responses to extended response questions.
The following activities will assist you to develop an understanding of the Glossary of key words and how they are used in PDHPE.
