FWE1/4 (marked out of 4)
Marking jury: Marek Barwinski and Liudmila Fakeyeva
Contemporary photographs taken at the sites were made available, as the markers had not visited site 4. There were 6 things to mark: 2 areas and 4 features. If there were more things mapped, marks for the best ones (2 and 4) were awarded only. Only correctly mapped (over 50% overlap for areas and correctly located features recognized), annotated elements can score full mark.
Areas: Two areas worth 1 mark each (2 marks max.) Markers scored the two best areas mapped; they needed to be correctly located on the map. There must be an entry in the key, otherwise half a mark only. The typical areas were the gardening area (middle right of figure 1) or the carpark (left foreground). In Figure 2, the Volga interfluve (left distance) and the loading beach (in foreground) were also be acceptable.
Features: Four features worth .5 marks each (2 marks max.) The two bridges (one had disappeared and a new one was built) were features that were mapped and annotated in the key. Appeared: new bridge, war memorial, new houses, new infrastructure (roads, chimneys indicating different industries etc. Disappeared: churches (2), old bridge, marketplace, wooden floats etc.
Comments: This exercise was quite hard to mark, and students generally received the benefit of doubt. The outcome was that the task was quite discriminating with modest mean and quite high standard deviation.
