Assessment and evaluation

Placeholder photograph of notes and a laptop.

Participants take a task they already set and ask what a strong response would contain. Criteria are written before scripts are marked, and feedback is practised as a next step rather than a verdict. Evaluation of a programme, where it arises, is kept separate from marking a learner.

Objectives

  • Align a task with its purpose.
  • Write criteria before marking.
  • Give feedback a learner can act on.

Learning outcomes

  • One revised task.
  • A short mark scheme.
  • Three model feedback comments.
