2024 Stage 2 Chemistry Marking & Moderation Workshop

An opportunity for teachers to discuss assessment and the application of the performance standards to samples of work, as well as to have invaluable professional input with their own student samples. An opportunity to readjust marking standards prior to final moderation.

Tasks that will be discussed include the deconstruct and design task, science as a human endeavour investigation and marking of SATs, in particular short answer and extended response questions, including SHE responses.

NOTE FOR PARTICIPANTS:  Please bring examples of your own students' work.

Intended audience: Stage 2 Chemistry teachers

Presenter: Glen Arthur

 

Check out some of the comments from the 2023 workshop attendees:

  • Glen was so helpful in providing oustanding resources which he encouraged us all to use. Setting the standards was very important to allow levelling of current results.
  • Thank you. Once again, Glen was very generous with his advice, support and exemplars. Vital in helping me tune my skills.
  • A very enjoyable day, lots of info and thought-provoking ideas re marking which I will endeavour to incorporate into my teaching.
