Question
- A. The number of participants in the study
- B. The clarity of the research question
- C. The limitations of the data collected
- D. The geographical location of the fieldwork
Answer
The correct answer is The limitations of the data collected.
Explanation
The correct option is The limitations of the data collected. The limitations of the 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.
