Certainly! Let's break down the solution for this activity step by step.
### 2.1 Decide what you want to do about the problem you identified (2 marks)
Firstly, we need to decide on a course of action to address the identified problem, which, for example, could be "low grades in math".
Solution:
To improve the math grades, we can implement extra tutoring sessions after school.
### 2.2 Indicate TWO possible obstacles or barriers and support or help (8 marks)
We need to identify two potential obstacles that may hinder the success of our action plan and suggest forms of support or help to overcome these obstacles.
Obstacles and their Supports:
1. Obstacle 1:
- Issue: Students may not have time for extra sessions due to other commitments.
- Support: We could offer flexible tutoring schedules or conduct online sessions to accommodate different students' time constraints.
2. Obstacle 2:
- Issue: There may be a lack of qualified tutors available for extra sessions.
- Support: To address this, we could hire or train more tutors from within the school or local community.
### 2.3 Draw up an action plan to show who will do what, where, how, and when (8 marks)
We need a detailed action plan indicating the roles and responsibilities of involved parties, as well as a timeline outlining the sequence of activities.
Roles and Responsibilities:
1. School Administration:
- Responsibility: Coordinate and schedule tutoring sessions, hire or train tutors.
2. Math Teachers:
- Responsibility: Identify students in need of tutoring, develop tutoring materials and activities.
3. Tutors:
- Responsibility: Conduct the tutoring sessions, provide individual or group support.
4. Students:
- Responsibility: Attend the tutoring sessions, seek help when needed.
Timeline:
1. Week 1:
- Activities: Identify the students who need help and schedule the sessions accordingly.
2. Week 2:
- Activities: Hire or train tutors and prepare the necessary materials or resources for the tutoring sessions.
3. Week 3 and onwards:
- Activities: Begin the tutoring sessions and continuously monitor students' progress to ensure that the extra help is effective.
Summary/Conclusion:
We have decided to initiate extra tutoring sessions to improve math grades. We recognize two primary obstacles: students' potential time constraints and a shortage of qualified tutors. To mitigate these, we would offer flexible session timings and increase our tutor pool through hiring or internal training. Our action plan outlines clear roles and responsibilities for school administration, math teachers, tutors, and students, alongside a structured timeline to ensure a systematic approach to implementation and progress monitoring.
