      Cambridge Nationals Creative iMedia 08 May 2019

      Updated specification

      Following feedback, we updated our specification on 1 March 2019 to remove the instruction that students’ accounts need to be locked in between sessions.

      In doing so, we introduced some typographical errors for which we are very sorry. We have corrected these and version 7 was added to the website on 26 April 2019.

      If you are delivering Creative iMedia, please make sure you have downloaded the amended specification.

      Section Change
      2.8 Unit R087: Creating interactive multimedia products

      We’ve amended the format of the final bullet in LO2:

      ‘Learners must be taught:

      • How legislation (e.g. copyright, trademarks, logos, intellectual property use, permissions and implications of use) applies to assets (e.g. sound, video) to be used when creating interactive multimedia products, whether sourced or created.’
      2.11 Unit R090: Digital photography

      We’ve restored a piece of taught content, omitted from the previous version, in LO2:

      ‘Learners must be taught:

      • How legislation (e.g. model and property releases, welfare considerations, child protection, privacy, trademarks, copyright, permissions and implications of use) applies to the taking of photographs and the production of a digital photographic portfolio.’
      3.3 Grading and awarding grades

      We’ve added text between unit grade tables:

      ‘The learner’s uniform mark for Unit R081 will be combined with the uniform mark for the centre assessed units to give a total uniform mark for the qualification. The learner’s overall grade will be determined by the total uniform mark. The following table shows the minimum total mark for each overall grade:’
      6.2 Accessibility We’ve updated the information about Access arrangements to inform centres that GCSE or AS and A Level approval no longer extends to cover Cambridge Nationals (and other qualifications) – you must submit additional applications to cover these qualifications.

      We’ve also amended the table. ‘Transcripts’ have been removed and the ‘Type of Assessment’ for ‘Modified Question papers’ is now ‘Timetabled examinations’.

      Appendix B: Marking criteria for centre assessment We have made minor typographical and formatting corrections throughout. These amendments are to improve the format and language, making this section of the specification more user friendly for teachers and learners.
      Appendix B: Unit R092 Marking criteria grid for LO4

      We’ve updated Mark band range for LO4 due to an error in the previous version.

      If you are delivering R092, please see further details here.

      Appendix E: OCR approved templates

      We’ve updated the information on OCR approved templates to add:

      ‘Students may create or source their own templates if they wish to.’

      If you have any queries about this update please call our Customer Support Centre on 02476 851509 or email vocational.qualifications@ocr.org.uk.
