What is moderation: being confident about teacher judgments
Comparable assessment judgments result from teachers comparing their assessments with an agreed matrix, progression or specific assessment characteristics and agreeing on a level or "standard".
- What do you compare your judgments against? (for example, PAT norms; school expectations of the year level; experience of this year level)
- Would other teachers, or students, agree with your judgments? How do you know?
- How can moderation strengthen confidence in teachers’ judgments?
