|Describe |
|Try to “Paint a picture” in words. Assume that the person that you are describing to does not know anything about the subject that you are describing. Tell them |
|what you have learned. |
| |
|Apply |
|This is where you are asked to set your knowledge, understanding or skills into action. This may involve the need for you to show off your skills or to relate |
|your knowledge and understanding to the task. |
| |
|Explain |
|Once you have described the subject, often you will need to show your understanding (how), give further details and reasons (where appropriate). (E.g.) Once you |
|have described England’s poor performance in the European Championships, you may also give some reasons why the players did not perform as well as they could. |
| |
|Compare and contrast |
|Here, you need to look for similarities and also any differences that stand out. You must then “paint a picture” of the similarities and differences. (E.g.) If |
|comparing the performances of Sergio Aguero and Wayne Rooney, you may comment on similarities – They are both strikers. Both start most games for their clubs. |
|Both have scored lots of goals for their clubs. In terms of differences, you may comment on Aguero being more successful at International level and the reasons |
|why you think that is. You may also discuss Wayne Rooney’s poor disciplinary record. |
