Discussion question · 10 marks
Reflecting on your own teaching experience, describe a moment where you realized your students were 'writing to describe' rather than 'writing to evaluate.' How did you modify your instruction, feedback, or lesson materials (e.g., using a specific exemplar or rubric change) to pivot them toward the analytical depth required by the Cambridge IGCSE 0457 mark scheme? Provide concrete examples of the change in student output following your intervention.
