This is an original preparation plan, not a new examination announcement. Check dates, stages, eligibility and application instructions in the issuing authority’s current notice.
01 / UNDERSTANDING
Plan your preparation
Alternate overlap tables with letter rules so that a memorised approach does not conceal uncertainty about the evidence needed for a mapping. Make an uncertainty column instead of erasing unconfirmed alternatives too early. For a later review, test the mapping against a statement not used initially. Keep a specific error note about assigning each word to the code in the same displayed position. Use a changed example after a short gap so that remembering one answer does not disguise a remaining misunderstanding.
02 / UNDERSTANDING
The concept in context
Coding-decoding problems ask learners to identify substitutions, ordering rules or symbol relationships from stated evidence. A sound mapping must explain shared and differing elements without assuming an arbitrary language or hidden convention. Compare overlapping statements, isolate their intersections and record unresolved pairings. Letter-position rules require checking every character rather than matching only the first letter.
03 / UNDERSTANDING
A worked learning case
In an original code, "save money daily" is "ka tu mi" and "save time daily" is "ka lo mi". A third statement, "daily practice helps", is "mi sa re". The first two statements leave save and daily unresolved between ka and mi. The third isolates daily as mi, so save must be ka.
ORIGINAL EDUCATIONAL PRACTICE
Try it before you check.
Which code represents money in the stated example?
Show the answer and reasoning
tu.
The first and second statements share save and daily, represented by ka and mi in some order. Money appears only in the first of those statements, so its unmatched code is tu. The third statement resolves daily separately but is unnecessary for identifying the word money.
Two traps to watch for.
- Assigning each word to the code in the same displayed position.
- Treating an unresolved pair of codes as a unique mapping.
YOUR TOPIC-SPECIFIC LEARNING MAP
Build your next study session
List the shared words and shared codes for each pair.
Separate confirmed mappings from unresolved alternatives in the table.
Test the mapping against a statement not used initially.
Explain the idea, apply it to a new situation, then check what changed in your reasoning.
