WJEC Online Examination Review OER (Available from the autumn term) http://oer.wjec.co.uk
Summer 2014 exams Since summer 2014, the OER (Online Exam Review) has been an interactive pdf file. This has a number of advantages: • Small file sizes • Software to read the units is freely available • Works on all devices • Improved print quality of materials N.B. Best results are obtained after downloading the units and viewing them using ‘Adobe Reader’.
Initial view A feedback module will look like this when opened. The following slides will take you through this example module, providing instructions on how it should be used and explaining the tools available.
Making notes The pen tool allows the user to make notes on any part of the screen.
Changing pen colour Choose the colour palette at any time to change the pen colour – this is done by clicking the right mouse button on the pen icon and choosing ‘Tool Default Properties’. This can be useful if there is need to distinguish between different types of comment, or if being used by students in the classroom.
Navigating the unit Bookmarks are available on the left hand side of the screen, allowing the user to move from one part of the unit to the next.
Item level data The first screen shows the item level data. An item is a questions or part question within a script. The table shows the data for all WJEC candidates attempting this paper. It can be compared with a particular centre’s data in order to evaluate the achievements of the centre’s candidates. (Item level data for individual candidates and centres is available through the WJEC secure website. See the presentation on this facility for more information).
