1.3.4.3b - Types of structure

Compare tall, flat and matrix structures.

Use b - types of structure to connect the rule to the data and decision in the question.

This matters because b - types of structure determines what can be inferred or chosen; begin with the stated conditions and keep the conclusion tied to the evidence.

Example: apply b - types of structure to one small, clearly defined case, show the key step or comparison, and explain the result in words.

Boundary: b - Types of structure is not a universal recommendation. Check the syllabus scope, assumptions, units and the limits of the evidence before generalising.
