OCR A - Simpson's Index of Diversity

An independent learning resource covering how to use Simpson’s Index of Diversity (OCR A Specification 4.2.1d) (Correct 2/03/19).

Section A uses a variety of questions on the topic to ensure students have a complete set of notes, provided the questions are answered in full sentences (you can also use the Cornell Notes Style to ensure a coherent layout). This resource then provides a worked example of how to use Simpson’s Index of Diversity, with full instructions.

Section B checks understanding of learning using a practice exam question.

Section C is an extension task designed to improve their exam technique. They are to use the attached mark scheme to mark their response to the exam question. They are then asked a number of questions about how markschemes are laid out.

I have used this as an independent resource task, a homework task, a revision sheet and as an aid to my own planning.

Please let me know what you think.
