Essential information for assessment decisions
Learning aim A
For Distinction standard,
learners will evaluate the use of automation and robotics in
at least three different industries and in different areas of society.
Learners will evaluate
the use of different types of automation and robotics, for example physical robots and
automated processes, and consider how they are used in different contexts.
The evaluation will look at ways that robotic automation is used to solve problems
and meet specific objectives, drawing comparisons between uses in different contexts.
The learner will consider different aspects of the solutions, for example physical
components and data, and how these impact the quality and application of identified
solutions. The evaluation should consider a range of benefits, risks and drawbacks of
automation and robotics and the ways that adopting these systems can impact
organisations and wider society.
Learners will also explore the ethical factors that can have an impact on the adoption
and success of robotics and automation, providing supported value judgements as to
the impacts these things can have in specific cases. Overall, the evidence will
be logically
structured with correct use of technical terms and written at a high standard including
the consistent use of correct grammar and spelling.
