The student, the disability liaison officer, and academic skills advisers can be asked to assist with this Any hurdle requirements must be consistent between instances. Parity of standards of invigilation at all examination centres must be assured. Except for very small class sizes, normally, the type and weighting of assessable tasks should be consistent between instances. An example of acceptable inter-instance variation would be using a journal in one case and an electronic discussion board in another to record reflections on the subject. The Subject Coordinator is responsible for exam marking.
Marking occurs locally, to an agreed common marking scheme.
Moderation Moderation must take place to ensure equivalence of standards between instances. The extent of the moderation must be agreed before an 'instance' begins, and is a matter for agreement between the various coordinators. Even if assessment is specific to campuses, an exchange of work should still take place, towards the continuing or greater equivalence of standards. Moderation of results should take place before the results are released. Moderation may include normalisation of marks between instances, where student numbers or other differences warrant it.
