Introduction
These exemplar answers have been chosen from the
summer 2017 examination series.

OCR is open to a wide variety of approaches and all

answers are considered on their merits. These exemplars,
therefore, should not be seen as the only way to answer
questions but do illustrate how the mark scheme has
been applied.

Please always refer to the specification ([Link]

[Link]/Images/170844-specification-accredited-a-level-
[Link] ) for full details of the
assessment for this qualification. These exemplar answers
should also be read in conjunction with the sample
assessment materials and the June 2017 Examiners’
Report to Centres available on the OCR website http://
[Link]/qualifications/.

The question paper, mark scheme and any resource

booklet(s) will be available on the OCR website from
summer 2018. Until then, they are available on OCR
Interchange (school exams officers will have a login for
this).

It is important to note that approaches to question

setting and marking will remain consistent. At the same
time OCR reviews all its qualifications annually and may
make small adjustments to improve the performance of
its assessments. We will let you know of any substantive
changes.

Question/Part: AO 3.3 Evaluation of solution

Marks: 14/15

This section is marked a little generously.

The student has provided some evidence of meeting each of the
groups of success criteria, however better cross-referencing to the
evidence in the project itself would have improved this section.
Although each of the criteria are discussed, it is a little lacking
in detail and real evaluative comment as to the extent that the
criteria are met or not and in some cases is simply stating what
the images show.
Usability is evaluated more effectively, although it would have
been nice to see some discussion of the end user comments
linked in or referenced to reinforce the statements made.
The limitations and maintenance sections are well-written and
address future developments and improvements suitably and in
detail.
