Question
- A. A personal opinion about the results
- B. A statement supported by data collected
- C. A summary of the fieldwork process
- D. A prediction of future geographical trends
Answer
The correct answer is A statement supported by data collected.
Explanation
The correct option is A statement supported by data collected. A statement supported by data collected is correct because it directly matches the approved learning objective to draw evidenced conclusions in relation to enquiry aims. This belongs to Fieldwork within Section B: Fieldwork, so the answer must stay focused on the geographical process, evidence, place, or impact named by the curriculum. The other options are weaker because they move away from Fieldwork, reverse the geographical relationship, or make a broader claim than the objective supports.
Common mistake
Misinterpreting Evidence
Students often draw conclusions that are not directly supported by the data collected during their fieldwork.
To fix this, students should ensure that their conclusions are explicitly linked to the evidence gathered, referencing specific data points to support their claims.
