These study guides continue the innovative and committed attempt by the DBE to improve the academic performance of Grade 12 candidates in the National Senior Certificate (NSC) examination.  \nThe study guides have been written by teams of exerts comprising teachers, examiners, moderators, subject advisors and coordinators. Research, which began in 2012, has shown that the Mind the Gap series has, without doubt, had a positive impact on grades. It is my fervent wish that the Mind the Gap study guides take us all closer to ensuring that no learner is left behind, especially as we celebrate 20 years of democracy.  \nThe second edition of Mind the Gap is aligned to the 2014 Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS) . This means that the writers have considered the National Policy pertaining to the programme, promotion requirements and protocols for assessment of the National Curriculum Statement for Grade 12 in 2014.  \nThe Mind the Gap CAPS study guides take their brief in part from the 2013 National Diagnostic report on learner performance and draw on the Grade 12 Examination Guidelines. Each of the Mind the Gap study guides defines key terminology and offers simple explanations and examples of the types of questions learners can expect to be asked in an exam. Marking memoranda are included to assist learners to build their understanding. Learners are also referred to specific questions from past n","cbCaisn8SpylGllb","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisn8SpylGllb","pdf",3794146,128,"English","# Table of contents\n## Dear Grade 12 learner\n## How to use this study guide\n## Top 7 study tips\n## On the exam day","[{\"question\":\"What play and subject does this Grade 12 EFAL study guide focus on?\",\"answer\":\"It focuses on William Shakespeare’s play Romeo and Juliet for EFAL Paper 2: Literature in Grade 12.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the guide help learners prepare for commonly tested questions?\",\"answer\":\"It defines key terminology and provides simple explanations and examples of question types learners can expect in an exam, with marking memoranda to build understanding.\"},{\"question\":\"What curriculum alignment does the guide follow?\",\"answer\":\"The CAPS edition is aligned to the 2014 Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS), using guidance from national diagnostic reporting and Grade 12 examination guidelines.\"}]","Romeo and Juliet Study Guide - Grade 12 - Literature | PDF",1790586839,323]
