Study Skills

Assessment

The EPQ is made up of three components. The production log allows students to record their research and detail how their project develops over time. All EPQ candidates have to present their work to an audience sharing what they found in reflecting on their project. The main bulk of the EPQ is the production of a central piece of work: for most students this is a dissertation. However, some may choose to present a field study based on new research; a performance of something they have created supported by critical commentary and others produce something known as an ‘artefact’: this could include art projects or architectural plans.
