You will probably have been told repeatedly to make sure you include examples in your answers in order to gain valuable AO1 marks. Many students do manage to do this but they often simply stick in the example, usually at the end of a sentence, and do nothing with it. Box 1, part (a), shows a typical instance of someone including an example but not making the most of it. Although the example is accurate and relevant, it adds little to the analysis and does not help to gain any marks for AO2 or AO3.
