I am open to correction on this but I would be very surprised if marking systems have changed so radically. You stated that you teach in DIT (apprentices I assume?) so I acknowledge that you would have a better insight into this than me. To clarify: Are you suggesting that if a someone makes a mathematical error but is 100% correct with everything else that they get a 1 or a 0? Many thanks.

However, generally half marks can be given and added so all the marks are still 1 or 0. I didn't invent the marking system nor do I agree with it.

How many questions are not he paper? How many does the student have to do? Is it just a 1 or 0 per question? So if someone makes a basic mathematical error but is otherwise correct in terms of method etc. what marks do they get awarded for that question? My apprenticeship was very different, the entire structure has changed. We had a junior trades exam and a senior trades, I understand that this has been replaced by 7 phases. That would explain the different marking system, exams, syllabus etc.

B.describe what measures are taken to dissipate the energy stored in a relay coil which is switched by a transistor?
C.Explain how the speed of a shunt motor is varied using a field regulator?
D.Explain the principle of operation of a solid state variable frequency motor drive and Explain how it may be used for variable speed control of AC motors?

The notes that I have are not helping and I feel that I need to start from scratch on this. Having trawled through a lot of websites and youtube tutorials, I am not making progress with regards to the Phase 6 Electrical Science exam. Thanks again
