GCSE Religious Studies
Mae disgrifiad y cymhwyster yn Saesneg yn unig, gan ei fod wedi ei gymryd o fanyleb Saesneg CBAC.
Religious Studies has little explicit digital demand: both examinations are written, and the two NEAs (40%) must be submitted digitally but may be handwritten and scanned. The real digital load sits in the NEA skills of selecting, producing and evaluating sources and researching charities. The biggest thing KS3 can build is judging the reliability and bias of online sources and crediting them properly.
