  1. NZIP Conference Physics Moderation

  2. Outline • Purpose of moderation • Submitting material for moderation • Physics moderation resources • Using an assessment task

  3. Purpose of moderation To provide assurance that: • assessments are fair, valid and at the national standard • teachers are making consistent judgements about student performance.

  4. Submitting material for moderation • Moderation cover sheet • Task, marking schedule and student work- 4 samples for Unit Standards and 8 for Achievement Standards • Any additional explanatory notes (for example if assessing 90252 by portfolio of practical work) • Optional teacher-selected assessed work for professional feedback

  5. Teacher-selected assessed work • Teachers can send additional samples of student work to ask a specific question of the moderator • Up to four additional samples can be submitted – these must be for the same standard as is being moderated • Paired samples on either side of a grade boundary would help to determine that boundary • Feedback is given separately and not included in the moderation report

  6. Physics resources Resources For Physics page on the NZQA website

  7. Best practice workshops Planned physics workshops in 2009 • Auckland South-East  July 14   • Hamilton October 6   • Napier  October 7   • Palmerston North  October 8   • Christchurch  November 17   • Dunedin  November 18   • Invercargill  November 19

  8. Using an assessment task • Best practice: element-by-element check against the standard before use • Commercial resources - check for the latest version • Generic schedules (e.g. TKI) must be customised with evidence statements to include examples of all evidence on which judgements are to be made. (“evidence” = student answers)
