Hi Jenny,
I was so pleased to read this post, this is the tool I’d settled on for all the reasons you outline but was often irritated by what I thought must be my failings in getting less than perfect citations.
I really like the organisational power of the tool and I think this helps sell it to students going on to university because they can see how it will remain useful beyond school and therefore the relevance of the underlying skill.
Thank you for sharing your guide, as we are shifting from IBDP to A-levels this year and starting the EPQ I am re evaluating all my materials so this is extremely helpful.
