Things You Should Know For Paper 1(A/B)

This paper, as you (should) know is the structured part of the exam. That means you don't have an essays, just structured questions.
 Paper 01A consists of 3 sections; one for each module. I assume you know what each module is but really it's not that important - the name that is. Module 1 is worth 15 marks and Module 2 and 3 are worth 30 marks each. This paper is worth 75 marks total.
Paper 01B is a listening comprehension question. You will be given a question paper worth 15 marks. The examiner will then  read a passage to you (reeeally slowly). Twice. You should carry a scrap page because you'll have time to write down each word. The question paper will obviously be based on the passage.

Here is a quick checklist of things you MUST know for Paper 01A exam:

MODULE ONE: GATHERING AND PROCESSING INFORMATION

  • Sources:
    • Examples of primary sources 
    • Examples of secondary sources
    • Data collected  from each source. 
  • Research Methods:
    • Types of research methods (interviews, questionnaires, participant observation etc.) 
    • strengths of each method
    • weaknesses of each method. 
MODULE TWO: LANGUAGE AND COMMUNITY

    • reasons/roles for Creole as a language.
    • vocabulary/grammar
    • characteristics of creole

    • historical factors affecting language
    • advantages/disadvantages of creole

    • situations in which different dialectal variations should be used. 
  • Registers:

    • appropriateness of register according to situation
  • Communicative Behaviours (non-verbal communication)
  • Technology:

    • problems with the receiver
    • barriers to communication
  • Forms of communication

    • non-verbal communication 
  • Contexts of Communication 


yeah I know some things may come across as vague and repetitive, but that's simply the way of CAPE. 
Also, don't limit yourself to what you see here, these are just the topics that usually come. Just study your shit. I'll go into detail a little more later.
