Paper 1, Paper 2
Revise: Communicating and evaluating findingsEvaluation means reviewing how well the investigation worked and how it could be improved. It is more than checking whether the hypothesis was supported. An unexpected result can come from a well-designed investigation, while an apparently convincing result can come from a weak method.
Make evaluations specific: identify a weakness, explain its effect on the investigation, then suggest an improvement that addresses it.
