You need to write-up and pass three experiments throughout the Higher course. The write-up assesses learning outcome 3 (LO3).

You are actually given more help with the write-up than you did at Standard Grade. You will be given an advice sheet (see below) which should be referred to while you are writing-up the experiment.

LO3 Advice To Candidate Sheet

To help you further with the write-up, the file below gives you an example of one. The comments in red are there to explain what is required for each part of the write-up. We have chosen an experiment that you should all be familiar with from Standard Grade or Intermediate 2 - Ohm's Law. Use this to prepare for your own write-ups.
