    Course overview

    This three-week course is divided into four lessons. During each lesson we will be collaborating to identify key issues, engaging in discussions and asking questions. We will be focusing on the following areas:

      • Syllabus challenges - how we plan for these and measure the effectiveness of our interventions.
      • Understanding the marking principles and assessment structure.
      • Applying marking principles.
      • Using formative feedback to support student progress.
