Once the students have been introduced to PED this worksheet works well to take them the through the steps of calculating PED and how to work out PED using different variables. The other great thing one is self marking!

Structure sheet to help students build a 20 mark answer using application sheet.
I have gone through every Ed Excel paper from 2010- 2014 (the old spec) and listed the questions asked and the marks available. Excellent for quick referencing of past questions. Saves time if looking for past questions for revision or if you are trend spot you might be able to spot certain questions occurring more than others!
Students often find it difficult to evaluate. I have put together a quick activity to help them think of how to evaluate using a different scenario compared to what they might normally see in an exam. However (see my evaluation there) the same skills will be required to achieve the higher marks available. I have done one for Bangkok, London and anywhere! You can adapt these again to your local area.
