Study Notes
Assessment Criteria for Exam Answers
- Answers should be assessed based on content accuracy, relevance, and depth of understanding.
- Avoid placing excessive importance on presentation aspects such as handwriting or format unless specified.
Evaluating Figures in Answers
- Examiners should focus on the correctness and clarity of figures presented, ensuring they are relevant to the question.
- Consider how well the candidate explained their figures in relation to the problem.
Step-wise Credit Allocation
- Credits should be given for each logical step in problem-solving, acknowledging the understanding of the process rather than just the final answer.
- For numerical problems, partial credit should be provided for correctly executed steps leading to an incorrect final answer.
Handling Variations from Model Answers
- When comparing candidate answers to a model answer, assess the underlying understanding and reasoning rather than strict adherence to the model.
- Acknowledge different but valid approaches if they demonstrate competence in the topic.
Examination Instructions Adherence
- Answers should be evaluated strictly according to the provided instructions to ensure fairness and consistency.
- Clear expectations from the exam must be followed to guide assessment criteria.
Language Errors Consideration
- In certain subjects, particularly mathematics or technical fields, language errors such as grammatical and spelling mistakes may not significantly impact the assessment of comprehension.
Focus on Figures in Assessments
- Assess figures not only for accuracy but also for how well they are integrated into the candidate's argument or explanation.
- Examine how effectively the candidate conveys their findings through visual elements.
Credit Evaluation for Numerical Steps
- Assign credit based on each part of the calculation, rewarding the candidate for demonstrating the mathematical procedures correctly.
- Emphasizing understanding over perfection, providing a fair opportunity for candidates to showcase their knowledge.
