A tedious thing which requires undeserving teenagers to compile data and analyse things that they really don't give a crap about and which they have trouble understanding that anyone would give a crap about. Coursework makes up at least 20% of most GCSE grades and is completely unfair because it's not so much about what students know or how clever they are as how they present data and how long their analysis' are.
Teacher: So I'm handing back your draft copies of coursework - it was absolute rubbish, by the way - and I expect it in by tomorrow morning. I don't care if it's your birthday today. I don't care that you have no idea what to do and I don't care if your grandfather's funeral is tonight. You WILL hand in your completed coursework tomorrow or I'll write down that you failed to hand it in and your GCSE grade will never get higher than a C, even if you ace the exam.
