Benefits: it allows us to identify the potential claims that we can use to answer the AQ

it allows us to identify the issues and use scope, and finding the stands of each author

Identify the context of the passage (yourself and your society)

Challenges: may not understand the content of the passage

Cannot find the exact phrase for evidence

Difficult to complete all the steps within 15minutes

# data[].attributes.body
Benefits:

1) helps to understand what the passage is about

2) Allows us to know what to look out for from the passage as the questions are read first

3) Helps to manage time as we will be able to think faster after following through the steps

Challenges:

1) People will tend to forget about these steps in the exam due to stress.

2) When these steps are not practiced enough, a lot of time will be spent in doing these drills and people will not have enough time to do the question itself

# data[].attributes.body
Benefits:

1) It gives me an idea of what I will be reading as I would have read the title description

2) It helps with the reading of the passages as we would not only be reading to understand but also reading with an objective to find relevant information related to the AQ.

Challenges:

1) It may be easy to lose track of time as we would be busy brainstorming for the AQ

2) It may be risky to brainstorm for AQ without reading the passage as there would be a larger chance to not answer the question and the time spent on it would be wasted.

Step 1 and 2 gives a broad idea of what the passage could be so evidence can be narrowed down more specifically using SPERM/GINCI. However, it is hard to find evidence that we can use SPERM/GINCI and also have potential social issue.

Using Paul's wheel of analysis, we are able to get the meaning/purpose of the passage but sometimes we get the wrong meaning and also do not have enough time to really understand the passage.

# data[].attributes.body
Benefits: 1) P2 drills help us to be prepared on what the text is about. By knowing what the text is about, we are able to come up with assumptions before reading the text. 2) P2 drills help us to link social issues that is related to the text. It is important as we will have to come up with claims for AQ. Challenges: 1) It is hard for me to think of a social issue that is related to the text on the spot. Will take some time before I can think of any social issue that is related to the text. 2) Sometimes when following the question requirements like: From Paragraph 6 to 8. I find that there are too little information(Because I don't really know what the question really wants me to answer) inside the paragraphs, so I will tend to write lesser.

# data[].attributes.body
Benefits:

By reading title description, I can know what to expect in the passage and the passage would be easier to understand as the title description already gave an overview of what is to come.

Challenges:

The paper 2 drills are meticulous, it might be difficult to carry out all the steps within the given time constraints.

# data[].attributes.body
Benefits

1. By brainstorming, it would be easier to obtain a smooth flow of the AQ, leading to better organisation of points and maybe higher language marks.

2. Step 1 would be further supported by step 2. This is because step 2 is the direction which the person who set the paper wants "us" to read into and focus on.

3. Sometimes, the title and the AQ may be contradicting or are unrelated. But this just means that the AQ should be followed.

Challengers

1. Sometimes AQ and description may not be understandable, leading to more wastage of time to read the entire source.

2.Sometime brainstorming may take awhile, using SPERM, VUCA and GINCI. Many points should be thought up of in order to find the most suitable one. But is the point most suitable, the best point?

# data[].attributes.body
Benefits

The drill trains us to understand the question requirement better, thus we will answer according to the question.

The drill helps us to be systematic so that we wont waste time reading the whole passage

Challenges

It might still be hard to identify claims for AQ is the topic is unfamiliar to us

Assumptions may change when we read the passage, thus we might need to read it again.

# data[].attributes.body
Benefits

1. Reading the question before reading the passage tells me the main points that I will write in the AQ. This allows me to be aware and identify the overall claim of the passage.

2. The brainstorming tools gives my AQ scope

Challenges

1. It is hard to get evidence as you cannot copy from the passage.

2. Not easy to carry out all of this in 15mins.

# data[].attributes.body
1) It helps to open up the ideas.

This is because you are brainstorming on the various issues on the topic and gain more issues to discuss about.

2) It helps to set a direction for what you're about to write.

This is because with the brainstorming of issues, you can agree or disagree on the stand and this will help set the tone and direction of what you're going to write.

3) It will organize your thoughts and ideas.

Brainstorming is usually very messy and from the paper 2 drill, there will be organisation as you think deeper into the topics and choose the correct points.

Challenges:

1) Restrictive.

The structure is quite precise and it may interfere with usual train of thought.

2) May not know how to apply the ideas.

Although we have came up with the issues we want to discuss with a clear stand, it may still be very difficult to apply it when writing and the phrasing of it would be difficult.

# data[].attributes.body
One of the benefits of this drill is broadening our perspective and fishing out terms or pieces of evidences from what we have read before so that we can include them in our essays. From that, we can also filter out potential claims which are not directly related to the question even though they may appear to be. The P2 drill allows the setting up of a platform from where we would be able to build on our content as we go along. It sets a direction from the start on the right path so that we can ensure we won't divert from the main topic altogether. (increases the chances of avoiding misinterpretation...) Some of the challenges faced could be the disorganization of facts and we may not know what information we need to come up with strong, valid claims. We might also defend our own opinions if we feel very strongly on the matter yet ultimately, forget to respond to the overall claim of the author.

# data[].attributes.body
Benefits

-Approach for AQ (Step-by-step approach)

- reminder to annotate on paragraph itself (Clearer idea of points and save time)

Challenges

-Brainstorming for claims (Not strong claims)

-Paul's wheel

# data[].attributes.body
Benefits

Less time consuming, more structured in answering and understanding the passage

Challenges

what you brainstorm may not be necessary linked to the requirements/passage

# data[].attributes.body
Benefits: 1)Reading description ,AQ, summary -> catch the main idea about this passage. Makes reading more efficient as we already know what the passage is about.

2)Paul's Wheel: help us to understand the passage better.

Challenges: Sometimes may not have time to do this

# data[].attributes.body
Benefits

It helps to organise and know what the passage is talking about.

It helps to identify potential claims that are useful for AQ.

Challenges

Identify whether the claim in the passage is on which side because the stand may not be directly stated

# data[].attributes.body
Benefits:

1) It makes us think about the purpose of the passage, which in turn could create possible topics to be discussed in AQ

2) By reading the questions before the passage, we are unknowingly picking out points for discussion for AQ when we read the passage afterwards.

Challenges:

1) It could take us quite a while to complete the paper 2 drill rather then the stipulated timing of 15min

2) It is not an instinctive act to do the paper 2 drill and we may miss out certain steps of it when we do it in exams.

3)Do not get what respond to question/passage really means.

Benefits--

The first step of the P2 Drill, reading the title and it's description, would allow us to be able to understand the author's focus, the topic he would write on. This allows us to pinpoint the main point of the whole article.

The second step of the P2 Drill, reading the AQ before responding would definitely help students who tend to have issues in completing the whole GP comprehension passage on time (A lot of students). Placing this as step two helps to 'secure' the 10 marks at the early on in the paper, and would aid in finishing questions relevant to this in earlier questions faster,

Overall, these two steps are helpful as they would be able to aid in the understanding of the question and helps students get a grasp on a unfamiliar topic *Terms and conditions apply- Basic GP skills required*

Challenges--

The first step of the P2 Drill would help in the understanding of the question, however it also poses as much questions as it can solve. Students who lack necessary skills, would get more confused completing the P2 Drill than they were before.

The second step of the P2 Drill would indeed help students in the completion of the GP essay, given that the time allocated is as closely adhered to as possible, however, it is also equally as beneficial to start with question 1 to the application question, as this would enable the students to follow through the whole GP comprehension and understand the application question in further depth due to a deeper understanding of the whole comprehension.

Overall, this is based on the circumstances and the P2 Drill may not be the best.

# data[].attributes.body
Benefits

-It has allowed me to have a brief insight on what the passage is about. Thus emphasising shows me what the focus is for the argument for the AQ.

-It has allowed me to understand the question better by focusing on the contexts such as "yourself " and "your society".

-Easily identify the author's overall claim so it is easier for us to choose whether to rebut his/her points or to comply.

Challenges

-It still depends greatly on our personal understanding of the passage as the claims we make may or may not be valid

-Contextual knowledge needed to supply the AQ is to be done on our own time

# data[].attributes.body
Benefits:

1) the drill gives a very structured procedure to follow so we cannot go wrong on how to approach the paper

2) it sets the starting point of the AQ question before reading the passage so it gives the student a short sypnosis of what would be the key point and main idea of the passages

Challenges:

1) they may not be ample time for the student to go through the entire paper 2 drill as there is also the short answer component which takes a high percentage of the total marks

2) there may be also misconceptions when going through the paper drill the first time resulting in a totally wrong answer for the AQ question
