I am looking through the marking schedule for CP3 and jargon list is broken down into Jargon and Possible jargon. What's the different between them and how are marks awarded differently? The marking schedule state that "Adward 6 marks if there are no techinical terms" and "4 marks if there are one unexplained technical term". So I will get 5 marks for one explained jargon? And 5.5 marks for explained possible jargon?
"Jargon" refers to words that we think are likely to be jargon in any communication on the topic in hand. "Possible jargon" means those words or phrases that might be jargon depending on how the word is used, whether it is explained/defined and what level of sophistication we are assuming for our reader. The marks are awarded on a sliding scale. 6 marks for no jargon. If the markers think one item of jargon is used, then only 4 marks awarded etc....
You would certainly be throwing marks away by using such an abbreviation (unless you really really needed to define the term!)
I'm not sure how you'd define "proper jargon". As jargon is a function of your audience, it would be difficult to construct a definitive list.
