Description

Help your HSC students grow their knowledge and reinforce their learnings with the HSC Community and Family Studies (CAFS) Research Methodology homework book. This booklet will allow students to have their writing checked and assessed weekly.

The book includes 17 questions which are formatted in HSC style and cover the Research Methodology unit in the Community and Family Studies (CAFS) syllabus. A variety of key terms have been used across these questions to give students ample opportunity to practice their responses in the lead-up to the exams.

As this homework book does not include sample answers, the answers are not published anywhere so the students cannot simply google the answers. The students will be required to answer by applying their own knowledge of the content.

The homework book can be differentiated to suit the students’ needs. Alternatively, this booklet can be used for revision of the Research Methodology unit.

Pack includes:

  • 32-page HSC CAFS Research Methodology student workbook
