I'm in matric this year and I can tell you that LO is not easy, well at least not in my school anyway. We have two periods a week and we work every period because the textbook is over 300 pages(of BS). We even get homework every time. The most annoying thing though is the way the questions are asked, they are never clear and almost always have no "actual" answer.
For the OP: I just google the questions, open the top 5 results and then answer the question in my own words. Wikipedia, although not a trustworthy reference, does at least give you a wide spectrum idea of the topic and it also lists some points you can try and discuss. After a bit of searching you will find documents answering the question to the tee. I also try and think of some points the search didn't touch, just to show I can use my own brain as well.
It also helps if you know your teacher. For example, my gr. 11 teacher only asked for answers in points form as well as some pictures to make the project look better. My matric teacher, however, actually reads the stuff I answer and compares it to the memo the department sent us. Best of luck anyway!
