There is lots to consider when completing your coursework and preparing for exams. The SQA have created “Your National Qualifications” booklet to help.

There are different types of coursework, including portfolios, practical activities, performances, assignments and projects. The type you do will depend on the course you are studying. The booklet contains information on modifications, sources and Artificial Intelligence. There is also guidance on the rules you need to know and understand when completing your coursework.

Your teacher can also explain all of this to you.
