A Guide to Marking Guides!

Join our VET expert, John Dwyer today! What do we need to record in a Marking Guide and Why? This 90-minute session provides quality content that will unpack the importance of marking guides and the critical components they need to include, and includes an up to 30-minute freestyle element where our Competency Based Assessment Expert, John Dwyer, will address your live questions, questions on notice and frequently asked questions. Marking guides, by whatever name, are a critical component of an assessment tool. They are a major vehicle through which the reliability of assessment judgements is controlled. This session will look at various names applied to marking guides, will explore the importance of them for meeting the reliability principle of assessment and will look briefly at marking guide formatting. It will consider the difference between “satisfactory” and “competent” judgements and will discuss where these apply. This session will use a number of examples drawn from actual marking guides. At the conclusion of the interactive session content, you get to tap into the wisdom of our VET Expert John Dwyer! The Q&A feature of the platform will be opened for any live questions from attendees. Questions on Notice you may have submitted prior to the event and other FAQs will also be addressed.
