So when you talk about constructing a key question, how would I implement it into my response? Would I just drop a question and answer it in the middle of the SAQ? Also, if I add a key question and answer it, how do I eventually answer the question that is asked in the original prompt?

[@ThemanticEducation]

The key question is for revision purposes - it helps you figure out what you need to know for each topic. You don't actually write it in your exam answer - but you use the answer to that question to answer the original prompt. Otherwise, if you just study "hormones" for example, you might just end up summarizing a bunch of facts about hormones, that won't score high marks.

Thank you

Thanks for the great tips! One thing that did remain unclear is what exactly do yoy mean by answering the key question? Is it that you need to think critically, or moreso that you just need to explain, for example, how hormones influence behaviour (the processes that go on). P.S My teacher and our class find conflicting arguments, as to whether or not critical thinking is required in the SAQs. I know that in the essay questions its necessary but what about SAQs? Thanks again for this video, you've been a massive help.

[@ThemanticEducation]

Answering a key question will help you explain the topic, so "for example, how hormones influence behaviour (the processes that go on)." Critical thinking is "analysis, application, evaluation and synthesis." To put it simply, DONT evaluate in SAQs. Explain topic + explain study.
