Welcome to this Art and Design question paper marking workshop.

This course is for teachers and lecturers of Art and Design. Its purpose is:

  • to help you develop an understanding of how the question paper is marked.
  • to provide practice exercises to increase your confidence and accuracy in marking your learners’ responses.

This course is for teachers/lecturers of Higher Psychology. Its purpose is to develop an understanding of how questions in course assessments are marked, and this is done by explaining how the command words used relate to skills. It also suggests ways in which these skills can be formatively developed in candidates, to allow them to respond to the course assessment.

This course will give you the opportunity to listen to candidate performances (including bagpipes and pipe band drumming) alongside the sheet music, mark the performances, and review the reasons why the definitive marks have been awarded.
