Quick questions on Planning the ESA personal response - OCR A-Level Art and Design

5short Q&A pairs drawn directly from our worked dot-point answer. For full context and worked exam questions, read the parent dot-point page.

What is a plan disconnected from the preparation?
Show answer
The outcome must connect to and realise the preparatory intentions. Build the composition, media and idea directly from the preparation.
What is over-ambition?
Show answer
A plan that cannot be finished in 15 hours loses the AO4 resolution marks. Scale the plan so it can be completed and presented.
What is a generic illustration of the theme?
Show answer
A response that just depicts the starting point is not personal. Resolve your own focused enquiry, drawing the preparation's threads together.
What is q1?
Show answer
What three things must a strong plan for the personal response do? [Knowledge recall]
What is q2?
Show answer
Explain why the planned response must be both ambitious enough to realise intentions and achievable in the supervised time. [Short explanation]
