  4. MANUAL OR COMPUTERISED? • Control • Data automatically held on server machine • Client Access following registration • Email in reports • Total Anonymity • Mark in own time • No group marking / limits plagiarism • Learning through marking

  5. COURSEWORK FORMAT • Create report • Include all web sources • Email in report ( 14 marks) • Perform On-line MCQ Test (8 marks) • Peer Assessment (C.A.P.) (10 marks) • Perform On-line MCQ Test (8 marks) • Feedback !!!!!!

  6. FEEDBACK • Students “wanted to know!!!” name of markers • Students wouldn’t accept comments of peers • Wide range of marking • Average out marks • Email in complaints to highlight problems

  7. POSITIVE BENEFITS • Lecturer: Marking Qualitative not Quantitative 150*35 mins * 10 = 800 hours • Immediate Feedback • Learning aid / Open up access to material • Benchmark own performance with peers • Perspective of marker not producer • Objectivity not subjectivity in marking
