Validating Assessment Practices & Judgements Masterclass
Course
Templates + support for validating assessment practices & judgements
Take a detailed look at the process of validating assessment practices & judgements.
Firstly, all participants receive complimentary access to vetr's updated Validation Essentials digital short course.
Then in the live event, we'll consider the structure for how to effectively validate assessment practices - discussing both in-the-flow & a validation activity approaches.
We'll then dive deep into assessment judgement validation requirements including tasks that were administered, applying the Principles of Assessment & Rules of Evidence, applying benchmark marking guidance, justifying judgements made & improvements to assessment practice.
Using an assessment judgement example, we'll engage in the validation of assessment judgements beyond the mere 'tick, it's compliant,' delving into the quality of assessments undertaken, key practice challenges, documenting validation findings and recommendations for rectification!
Bring one of your assessment judgements along & validate it as part of the session.
